Lindsay and Bryce provided excellent care to our two cats while we were gone. They are great communicators, took amazing care of our apartment and send regular updates and photos so that we knew all was going well. We would absolutely recommend them as responsible and thoughtful pet sitters who can be entrusted with the care of your home and pets.

Martin was a very conscientious and thoughtful house sitter who took excellent care of our pets and our home. He was reliable, self-sufficient, and a very good communicator. He clearly enjoys and cares for animals, and our house was spotless when we returned. We recommend him wholeheartedly!
Kathryn
Linda was an awesome pet sitter for my doggie Brodie! She gave him so much loving attention… he has some separation anxiety at 9 years old & she never left his side! She was so attentive to him & I am very grateful for that! Linda’s communication was also something I liked… we texted & chatted on the phone before her arrival & I felt very comfortable with her being in my home & with my dog. I could tell her number one reason to pet sit was her love for dogs & desire to be a wonderful companion for Brodie while I was away for the weekend! Would love to have her back anytime…

I felt totally confident in leaving Darcy and my house in Elaine’s care and I returned to a very contended dog and a perfectly clean and tidy house. Elaine arrived the day before I left so I was able to get to know her and enjoy an evening meal with her before my very early flight. We kept in contact while I was away via WhatsApp and I was happy to see photos of Darcy relaxing in her usual favourite places. It was lovely to be welcomed back home after my holiday by a very well looked after dog and it was so nice that Elaine was here to welcome me and had the lamps on, flowers in vases and a meal in the oven. My house was clean and tidy and Darcy has enjoyed a week of lovely walks and neck scratches. I highly recommend Elaine as a completely reliable pet and house sitter and she is a lovely lady to chat to. I was so pleased that I got to know her.

Exceptional Pet Sitters - Highly Recommend Diedre and Keith! I am thrilled to leave a glowing review for our trusted house and pet sitters, Diedre and Keith. They took exceptional care of our long-haired cat, Molly, and our home during our absence. Everything went incredibly smoothly, and their communication was top-notch. Dierdre and Keith provided regular updates, including delightful pictures of Molly, which put our minds at ease while we were away. Upon our return, it was evident that Molly had been well cared for and was content. The genuine love and understanding Diedre and Keith have for both dogs and cats was apparent in their interactions with Molly, and it was clear that they had made her feel comfortable and secure in their care. Their friendly and professional demeanor made the entire experience truly enjoyable. In addition to taking great care of our beloved pet, Diedre and Keith ensured that our home was in excellent condition upon our return. They even went the extra mile by informing us about the leftovers they left in the fridge, which was a thoughtful gesture. I wholeheartedly recommend Diedre and Keith as exceptional pet and house sitters. Their attentive and caring approach, coupled with their expertise, make them a perfect choice for anyone seeking reliable and trustworthy sitters. Don't hesitate to entrust your home and pets to this fantastic duo!

Janis is a wonderful person and also an incredible sitter -- we were very, very fortunate that she agreed to care for our beloved pets and rural log home for 3 days. We were confident that everything would be perfect – and it was. We returned to a home as clean and ordered as we had left it, inside and out. All plants were thriving; outdoor hanging baskets were blooming profusely. Most importantly, our beloved dog and 4 cherished cats had obviously been lovingly and attentively cared for. The koi were also active and happy. Janis is a “cat whisperer”. She is especially skilled and patient with shy felines, so we truly appreciated her patience and caring for our sweet Angie (with a semi-feral background). Janis immediately understood that Angie, despite her reclusiveness, craves affection and was able to start to earn her trust even with such limited time. Among Janis’ many gifts: she is a talented photographer and delighted us with frequent updates and photos of our furry children. They are so beautiful that we, with her kind permission, plan to include several in our zeewoi profile. Janis’ communications, reliability, self-sufficiency, and punctuality were exemplary, start to finish. We made a wonderful new friend and have already invited her back to sit again. If you are privileged enough to ever have Janis sit we are certain that you will be as delighted and happy as we are.
Cheryl
Milly was a lovely house sitter and I’d highly recommend her. She submitted a really great application and after a FaceTime chat it was an easy decision to choose her for our sit. She is the youngest sitter we’ve chosen but she has a maturity beyond her years and it was clear she had so much experience with animals that we felt confident leaving her in charge of our menagerie. Olive our young Pom has never been left with a sitter before so we were a little worried about how she would be but Milly was so patient, gentle and kind that she quickly won Olive over. So much so, on the morning Milly was leaving ,Olive would only let Milly put her harness on her before going for a walk. All the animals were perfectly cared for while we were away and we returned home to happy pets and a tidy house. Milly’s communication from our first contact and right through the sit was great and she even sent a lovely video of the dogs having fun on their walk. I’d have Milly back to housesit for us again anytime.
Mara
Jerry and Suzanne were absolutely ideal sitters for our home and pets. We spoke with them ahead of their visit and could tell that they are genuine pet and travel lovers. Over their stay we got to see even more that they are wonderfully friendly, kind, and responsible - plus they kept us laughing with their updates and descriptions of our pets' antics while we were away. Our pets and plants were well loved and our house was spotless upon our return home, and they were even kind enough to leave a few goodies in the fridge. Our dog in particular seemed to miss them and their long walks around the neighborhood. Thank you Jerry and Suzanne! We wish you well in your travels!
Nicky
Shella was a great house sitter and I had no concerns leaving her in charge when we went away. She kept in touch while we were away and we returned to happy pets and a tidy house. What more can you ask?! I would be more than happy to welcome Shella back to house sit another time.
Marcia
Heath spent a long weekend at my home taking great care of both dogs and the cat. He was able to help out on rather short notice, and I felt very comfortable leaving my pets in his care. Heath is friendly and reliable and left my home neat and tidy. I would definitely recommend him as a house/pet sitter for future assignments!

Couldn’t recommend Gaelle & Moggy Doggy Minders enough! My dog Molly stayed with Gaelle for 9 nights while I was away! I was very nervous sending molly away for the first time but gaelle is an absolute lady! She send pictures/videos of molly the whole time I was away! Molly was well fed and had lots of socialization with the other dogs! Molly was picked up and dropped home late in the evening free of charge.. gaelle is trained in dog first aid and has experience in dog therapy. Molly came home as bubbly as ever! I will definitely be using Moggy Doggy Minders again even as a day care once or twice a week. I wouldn’t go to anyone else! 🐾
Gaelle took our 1 year old very lively mini JR for 2 nights. What a great service, collected and dropped back to our house. Gaelle kept us posted on how Molly was getting on and videos of her having a great time. Would highly recommend.
Such an excellent service to have for your dog. The pickup and drop-off option is a real game changer. Gaelle is super at offering your pet a great day of socialising with other pets and lots of exercise. Definitely intend on sending my dog for lots more visits. Highly recommend
Gaelle provides an excellent service at doggy day care, Coco is always excited to see her coming and has a great time there! And the regular videos & photos through the day are brilliant!
Gaelle is a lovely lady and looked after my dog very well. I would highly recommend.
Excellent service. I know my dog is safe and and well cared for with Gaelle. I highly recommend Moggy Doggy Minders. It is really great that Gaelle does a pick up and drop off service. Rates are very reasonable.
We heard about Moggy Doddy minders from our neighbour and when we made contact with Gaelle we were delighted she took the time to visit our dog cooper at home to become acquainted and prevent him from making strange. Gaelle collects cooper and brings him to her home which is dog safe and has loads of activities to entertain cooper during his stay. We receive photos and videos of coopers stay as he interacts with other dogs which is important to us. We would have no hesitation in recommending Gaelle at Moggy Doggy minders to anyone who is looking to have their pets cared for.
I couldn't reccomend Gaelle enough 🙌 Before Bowie went to Gaelle's she came over to our house to meet Bowie so he could get acquainted with her in his own surroundings.Bowie loves going to Moggy Doggy daycare weekly & going for his sleepovers.There is a big secure & safe garden with loads of toys which Bowie loves running around in with his pals. Bowie does be so excited when he sees Gaelle at the door which is great peace of mind for me. Gaelle is wonderful at what she does. Bowie is collected & dropped home by Gaelle which is a brilliant service😊🐶While Bowie is at Gaelle's we receive loads of photos & videos of Bowie which is great peace of mind. I am delighted that I have found Moggy Doggy Minders & I would have no hesitation in reccomending Gaelle to anyone who is looking for someone to mind their dog.
We are so delighted that we have found Gaelle to look after our wee dog Lulu. Gaelle is so professional and accommodating. Lulu has totally settled in with Gaelle and gets so excited when she sees Gaelle coming to pick her up.Lots of playtime inside and outside. There is a lovely enclosed garden and lots of doggy toys to play with.Gaelle takes her for a walk every time she is with her. If there is another dog coming to Gaelle's she always makes sure that both dogs are compatible which is so reassuring. Lulu has stayed overnight in one of Gaelle's bedrooms and Gaelle made sure she settled.If Lulu isnt in good form Gaelle always tells us , we appreciate this so much. We get lots of updates by video to reassure us throughout the day. We know Lulu is in safe hands and she has a ball when she is with Gaelle.We honestly couldn't do without Gaelle and would like to highly recommend her.
Gaelle at Moggy Doggy Minders offers a fantastic pick-up/drop-off doggy day care service. We send our Bernedoodle, Teddy, to her a couple of times a week mostly so he can get some socialization - and we've boarded him for a week as well. We are thrilled with Moggy Doggy Minders and so is Teddy, A+++ service, can't recommend it highly enough!

Ray was an absolute pleasure to deal with. He’s a very friendly fella and you can see he really cares about the dogs he looks after. He was very attentive with my Yorkshire Terrier Bobby. 5 stars from me and I would definitely use again. Highly recommend. Thanks a million Ray.
Ray was very accommodating and looked after Opie very well.
Ray gets on with the dogs, my dog enjoys his stay, will use again
We left our husky there for the weekend and are really happy with everything. The owner 'Ray' was very helpful and professional. They even sent a video of our dog having a great time outdoors, in an enclosed play area on the Saturday, putting our minds at ease. We definitely will use their services again and will be recommending them to friends and family. The areas were all clean and well kept, with indoor heating. You can tell the owner has put a lot of effort into everything and seemed to be forward-thinking about the future as well. Five Stars.
Our dogs have stayed twice with Ray and we are very happy with the service he provides. He is kind hearted and even our shy female has warmed to him. Nice run area for the dogs. Thank you Ray!
We left our dog Bony twice with Ray over the last couple of months and was more than delighted with the care taken,he was treated like one of the family and come home a very happy camper 🤩👌 We will definitely going back for sure ! …
Needed to find my dog a kennels near Cavan as I had a day hospital procedure. I rang Cavan Dog Boarding which I had found online and tentatively booked wondering how my elderly, very owner attached, set in her ways dog, would get on. Left her shortly after 7am, picked her up 11 hours later. I need not have worried. My dog had a great time. Ray has a great way with dogs. My dog went in without a glance behind her and when I collected her she was as happy as Larry. I would have no hesitation in leaving my spoilt lady here again as she knows what she likes and doesn't like and she loved it here. I knew she was happy and well cared for all day. What a huge relief. Thank you so much. I wish all dog boarding kennels were as nice and clean and obliging as Rays. I also wish this kennels was located closer to me rather than 200 Kms distant.
Great find in Cavan! Ray looked after our dogs for a week and sent us pictures and updates which we really appreciated. They slept in their own little bedroom indoors and had loads of outdoor play space to themselves during the day, which also had a wooden chalet if they wanted a nap. He’d let them out of their bedrooms at 7am and put them back into bed around 9:30pm. We also bought our dogs new toys for their stay and Ray gave a new toy to them each morning which made their day! Will definitely be dropping our pups off here again.
The best kennels my dog has been in Cavan. We have tried others but nothing compares to Rays. Very neat, happy place.
Huge thanks to Ray for looking after our dog and not leaving us stuck on St. Stephen’s Day. It’s great to know he’s being well looked after

Our mind is at ease when we are away. We get daily updates and know our cats are looked after by animal lovers who provide diligent care.
We have used this service dozens of times for our 3 dogs for both daily walks and overnight boarding while we travel. Olaf and Tom are very professional, the dogs love them, and they are always quick to respond. I highly recommend to anyone who wants to make sure their dogs are well looked after while they're gone.
Amazing. Can't reccomend enough. Did great job looking after our pet during our honeymoon. Constant updates on how pet was doing, which was great to see. Will 100% use again.
Our House and pet sitting service is very useful if you need to travel and leave your house unattended for a day or weeks. Many burglaries are committed while people are away on holiday, so it makes sense to maintain a reassuring presence while your home is unoccupied - after all, no-one wants to return to find that they have been burgled or that a burst pipe has been unattended for days. Your pets are also less likely to fret during your absence if they can be cared for in familiar surroundings and are less likely to be exposed to the contagious illnesses which can break out in kennels. Our high quality house and pet sitting services will ensure your house and pets are looked after well.
I left my Yorkie here for the first time. She is a nervous little dog but got on fine and seemed happy. It was great to get a photo of her been walked and played with. This is a great service and I would recommend housesitters.ie
Excellent service.Thanks to Olaf and Tom for taking such a good care of our dog.We used their midday walk service for months as well as home boarding when going on holidays.We know we leave our dachshund in good hands when he's with them.They are professional easy to communicate with and very accommodating.Their online booking system and daily dog diaries with pictures are great too!
Wonderful service, Thank you both, Bonnie as always enjoys her holidays with you both.
Would highly recommend Olaf & Thomas! A great service and so comforting to know your beloved pet is being looked after so well!
I've used the midday walk service a couple of times now, very reliable and dog well taken care of. Will definitely use it again
Great service. They updated us every day with pictures. Will use them. Again.

Highly recommend Cookstown Kennells, Michael and his Team are so professional and caring. Milo was with them for 10 nights and she loved it, her first time away from home at 7 years so obviously we were a bit anxious. Michael reassured us sending videos of Milo having a great time. Thank you Michael, finally we have found the perfect stay for Milo.
I cannot thank the lovely people at Cookstown Boarding Kennels enough for looking after mine and my partners dogs (our babies) Ruby and Rosie for the week while we went on our first Holiday in 4 years as we were so nervous leaving them anywhere. We were very anxious and Micheal put our minds and rest with updates that they were both getting on amazing. It really made our holiday so much better as we were so sad about leaving them in the first place and didnt know how they would get on. The female Staff member (i didn't get her name)was absolutely amazing, we knew we were leaving the girls with great people. She was so lovely and you could see how brilliant she was with all the animals. Also the Kennels themselves were so clean and well kept such a lovely spot. When we got home after collecting the girls we were so delighted to see a little giftbag in the girls belongings it includied a certificate for good behaviour and some dog toys and Treats it was such a lovelyi gift. Thanks a million I cannot recommend Cookstown Boarding Kennels enough.
Top class kennels for our Rottweiler Ozzie, and our 2 cats! No complaints from them! Ozzie takes off into his kennel with excitement! Never had any problems! Michael and rest of his staff look after them so well!
Great people to deal with, very friendly and professional. They took great care of our dog, who is quite nervous of strangers. Would recommend 👌 …
We just trialled Cookstown Kennels before a long stay for our baby and couldn’t recommend Michael and his lovely colleague Marie more! Fabulous kennels, shown around for first time to feel comfortable before leaving our GSD. Quality service and the team have put our mind at ease regarding kennels for our fella. Keeping dogs separate is a must but together if siblings is brilliant. Kovu is in great spirits after unlike our experience with another kennel so the team must really be great at minding all sorts of dogs, especially big babies! Thank you guys, cannot wait to be back ❤️ the goody bag and certificate at the end was such a lovely addition and really appreciated ❤️
This place was recommended by multiple people and even though it is long drive for me we decided to leave our pup for 2 weeks there. People are very friendly and place is nicely done and very clean. Price is reasonable and you dont need to bring much as everything needed is provided for the dog. You wont get any pictures or videos but on the other hand you really not worry when you are away. We will try to use this place for every trip if possible.
Fantastic, friendly and professional. Our two huskies spent 8 days with Michael and his team. This was our first time using Cookstown Boarding Kennels and will definitely use them again. Highly recommended!
We left our cat at the hotel for 12 days. Micheal was very professional and caring. Highly recommended. Even gave her a little goody bag going home and she stopped playing with it since.
left my golden retriever there 2 weeks ago was very upset as first time leaving him girl was so nice she brought me and my daughter around to show where he sleep and then play so i knew he in safe hands and when i went back he in spotless pen and looked happy thanks again for minding him so well
Michael and his team always provide our cat with the best of care at Cookstown. We couldn't ask for more. Thank you

Our three dachshund’s stayed with Sarah in September for just a over a week. It was my first time leaving them for so long and I was naturally nervous. Sarah invited me down to meet her and view the property before I left to go away which definitely eased the nerves. I received regular updates and photos while I was away which again kept my mind at ease and I could enjoy my holiday. I would have no problem using the Dog House again and recommending them to others
Our little cocker spaniel stayed 2 nights at The Dog House. We got updates on her well-being throughout which gave us lots of reassurance whilst we were away. I cannot recommend the amazing service done by the team enough! The communication is amazing and the love and care shown to our little dog will not be forgotten! (The care was so great she wanted to stay longer). We will definitely be using their service again.
Oscar has been going to The Dog House for the past year, and he absolutely loves it! The mention of Sarah and Maisie’s name gets him excited, he cries with excitement when we get to the gate and can’t wait to jump out and run inside. Sarah provides regular updates, photos, and videos during his stay, which is so comforting knowing his having a great time and is well looked after. After each visit Oscar comes home happily exhausted from all the fun. I highly recommend Sarah, it’s a home away from home environment 🐶🐾
I have been using The Dog House since January 2024 for daycare and boarding on two occasions and I would recommend Sarah to anyone. I was quite anxious about having someone outside my family care for Marley but Sarah put me at ease from our first meeting. We get regular communication about how Marley is doing and the excitement he shows from the moment we pull up at the gate just shows how much he loves his time at The Dog House
Sarah is fantastic! We have been sending our German Shepherd x Husky (Pisces) to Sarah for boarding over the past couple of months. Sarah is a pleasure to work with and is amazing at looking after Pisces while we are away. We know that our dog is in great hands and well looked after from the minute we drop her off and until the moment we pick her up!! Would highly recommend!! Thanks a mill Sarah! 🤗🐾
I heard about The Dog House from a friend who highly recommended it.. she had her two dogs there on several occasions . I already had an older greyhound.. and had rescued a young lurcher. Pogue. He was extremely boisterous. A real free spirit. So I sent him to Sarah’s for day care only. Mainly , to socialise and run off his excess energy. Sarah sent photos and videos .. he was so happy and exhausted each time he came home . I needed to board him for a week shortly after..he had a wonderful holiday. And the bonus for me was that he was much less wild and feral. He was even partially crate trained. The most important thing for me, also,was that he was happy and well cared for. Sarah’s expertise and experience proved invaluable, as she passed on tips and advice .. Pogue had a fab holiday with lots of daily photos and videos and is much better behaved at home He will be returning soon for another holiday. I can’t recommend The Dog House enough. 5 stars!!!
Our 10 month old weimaraner, has stayed twice at the Dog House. She has come home very tired and content and I notice that she is playing even better with other dogs after all of the new friends she has met. Sarah is an excellent communicator and understands the value and importance of having regular updates on how your doggie is getting on.
I could not recommend Sarah enough! I have 2 big breed dogs and nobody would look at us, once Sarah met them she was happy to take them. She kept us updated on how they were doing the whole time, they were more than happy in her company. We collected them today and they’ve slept all day they had the best time!
Sarah looked after our whippet for us on a couple of occasions and she really went above and beyond to make sure both of us and our puppy were comfortable. We were anxious as it was our first time leaving him anywhere but we got plenty of pictures, videos and updates of how he was doing while there which was lovely and reassuring. Couldn't recommend The Dog House enough! Sarah looks after your dog as if it was her own!
My greyhound Sona has stayed here twice now. Sarah made a big effort to welcome Sona and make her feel at home and comfy, (greyhounds love comfort!). I got loads of updates on how she was doing, and I knew she was in great hands. The dogs have a paddock area to run around and play, as well as their chill out lodgings. Would definitely recommend.
