Dog Sitters in Swords

Big Thanks Gerry you really helped us out when we were desperately stuck for many weeks. It is affordable Gerry does a great job looking after the dogs place is cleaned everyday . Dogs are safe and fed , great location to bring the dogs on a walk would recommend thanks again.

Not heated, cold and wet kennels. Dog came out traumatized and began shedding profusely.

Stay well away. Was told we could pick our dog up at a certain time, when we arrived there was nobody there, I called the owner and was shouted at down the phone and then hung up on. I’m not sure they even feed the dogs in the evenings on the weekends based on what she said. Stay far away from this owner.

A great kennel to leave your dog. Gerry is always helpful and the dog is well looked after.

Great Kennels have been leaving my dog and cat here for last 5 years multiple times every year. Always friendly service from Gerry and Audrey. Great value no nonsense service. Animals come back well fed and happy. My dog actually gets excited in a good way when he gets there as he is very social and loves the interaction with the dog in the adjoining run through the mesh that seperates them.

Do not leave your pets there, it's a filthy place, my dog and my sisters dog both got the mange from it.

Sent my Jack Russell here for 4 nights and he was really well looked after. Have rebooted for 2 weeks in the summer. I would highly reccomend

Dog was well looked after left for 9 days Told the owner that she doesnt mix well with people he had no probs with that she was feed the food we left .. Quick wash when we got her home and she is brand new

Had a look around the kennels today with a view to boarding the dog for a few days Gerry the owner answered all our queries and explained the routine for the dogs,looks clean and well organised so I have no worries.

A very basic kennels. Had our two dogs kenneled together for a week over Christmas and perhaps I was wrong and there was the option of heated kennels with proper beds but all our two had was a piece of plywood to sleep on in a cold unheated kennel. What annoyed us most was that they hadn't realised that when being fed that our older dog ate both bowls and our 1 year old came out very skinny with her ribs and spine very prominent and all tissue wasting badly. Never ever again...even though they say that you get what you pay for...this was very lazy service

Juliana is so amazing person and great keeper. My pup spent wonderful time with her and her awesome dog Rocky. I was updated during a day about him so I was completely calm when I was away :) thank you so much my darling and definitely we’ll get back to you ❤️

Juliana is a sweet person and as a pet sitter she is wonderful, loving and attentive. My baby boy has been cared for by her since he was a few months old, today he is 2.3 years old and continues to be very well cared for by Ju. My Zeus and I thank her for her affection and care. 🐶🤩. …

Juliana took care of our dog with great affection and devotion. The service provided by her was excellent. She responds quickly and she is always willing to help. I fully recommend Juliana ’s service for pet setting. Thank you Juliana.

Juliana is an exceptional dog-sitter, always responsive and attentive in her care for Pluto. I am very comfortable leaving Pluto with Juliana seeing how happy he is with her.

Juliana is very caring and committed. We leave our dog in her care without any worry. Nara loves her ♥️

Definitely the best Petsitter ever! Julian has great communication and I always is helping with important duties such visit at vets and medicines. I highly recommend the services .😁 …

I can’t recommend you enough! Juliana absolutely loves dogs and knows everything about them, and that love comes out in the form of an amazing service, full of care for our 4 pawed friends!

Responsibility, commitment and a lot of affection for animals!!! I highly recommend!!

Ju is always very careful, loving and concerned about the animals... Doguinhos love Ju... And they her... Thank you for all the affection with them... Wonderful!!! Ju is always very careful, loving and worried about the pets... Dogguinhos love Ju... And they are... Thank you for all the affection with them... Wonderful!!!

It's incredible how little animals fall in love with Ju, it seems like magic! They must know how much they are loved by her and feel all this affection and respect I recommend Ju with my eyes closed!

Our two dogs love their stay here every time we go away. They’ve been going for years and always so happy to be there. They’re so well looked after under Catherine’s care and it’s great to see little updates on their Instagram page. Photo of the happy pair during their most recent stay.

Used the veterinary service here to help send our two dogs to Australia. Denis was excellent and helped ease our stress and concerns. A true animal lover Would absolutely recommend them for all veterinary needs

I have no words to describe how grateful I am to Lissenhall Bording Kennels. In January 2024, due to a veterinary error in Brazil, my two dogs were stuck at immigration and were forced to be quarantined. They took them from my arms at the airport, gave me a piece of paper with an address and left me without news for more than 12 hours. It was the worst night of my life! On the other hand, when I got there, I was very well received by Dennis and Catherine. They let me hug my dogs and were always helpful, explaining everything that was happening and what I should do. I decided to give them a vote of confidence and leave my dogs in the kennel for quarantine, as returning to Brazil with them would cause us even greater damage. And it was the best decision I made. We missed them for 4 months, but I could see how Catherine took great care of them, letting us see them whenever we wanted and regularly sending me photos and videos to show they were ok. Although the situation was horrible, finding people along the way who understood our pain and wanted to help us made it less painful. Thank you for everything! I will definitely leave my children when I go on vacation somewhere!

They toke amazing care of my boy Charlie. Got him on a flight and sent him to me. Forever grateful 🙏 …

Highly recommend , super clean and our dog has always been so well looked after while boarding at Lissenhall over the last 10 years. Gets a great run and great customer service , the staff are lovely its very well managed.

Just found out I had posted this in the wrong place as in the Vet Hospital so posting here now. Even though it's 8 months old, it still applies. Sooo... Would never leave my beloved pets anywhere else. Catherine and staff take the best of care of them and knowing there are vets on site makes me feel very safe for my furbabies.

(Back in December since they take this post down constantly) Picked up my dog who could walk before being taken to Lissenhall kennels totally paralyzed. They do not cover the kennels from the rain. Took me a whole month to nurse him back to health. No idea what they drugged him with he lost 10lbs didn’t eat there either. Charged me 400$ for the privilege to clean his teeth terrify my dog and leave permanent hip damage along with soft tissue damage. Video as evidence of cruelty; https://youtu.be/3ITDC6AhPls?si=Km2zCQbF-RIFspZ-

Catherine and her team are brilliant our dogs love it here and its great to know they are well looked after

This veterinary clinic should be closed straight away,They are The only clinic and cattery used by The department of agriculture for quarrantine ,they treated me and my family very ,very bad,they told us if we don t pay 850 euro for The quarrantine period ,they ll put The kitten down.They let us waitting 2 hours in The car park ,our kitten is subnutrited and very dirty,they treated us as garbage,they re very rude and they like to humiliate People,I hope somebody Will do something about this,myself I wrote to The minister Charlie MC Conologhue about this as should be more cateries allowed to quarrantine pets,as Estuary cattery ,Airport cattery,etc.They treated us and our pet as misery,I live în Ireland since 2001 and dealing with them I felt an inmigrant!

Our dog loved it. Stayed for 4 days. Very reasonable and look after the dogs really well. Will definitely be using again.

Jonathan is absolutely amazing with Daisy , she goes in and doesn't even look back , frequent updates videos and pics , thank you

I have used Jonathan's dog minding services several times. We were very nervous to leave our puppy (who was 6 months old the first time) with a dog minder but Jonathan was great. We did a meet and greet a few weeks beforehand and it was obvious Jonathan genuinely loves dogs and our puppy was going to be in safe and experienced hands. Jonathan is really responsive and always kept us updated with photos and videos. I have referred Jonathan to my friends and family several times. He's brilliant.

Can't recommend Jonathan and Puppers Paradise enough. Going to doggie daycare with him has really helped our rescue gain confidence and get comfortable around other dogs. Jonathan is patient, reliable and flexible and an excellent communicator even sending through lovely videos of our dog playing with his new friends. The best thing is you can tell that he really cares about the dogs he minds

From the very 1st time that Pablo (mini dachshund puppy) went to Jonathan’s home for Daycare, he was completely at ease. It was very clear from conversation with Jonathan that he has an abundance of knowledge & a genuine passion for dogs. He has sent me videos at intervals throughout the day of Pablo at play with the other dogs & it was very obvious that Pablo was having a really great time! Pablo has been in Jonathan’s care quite a number of times to date & he is always very relaxed & happy when I collect him.

Bruno had his first night away from us at Puppers Paradise with Jonathan. A home from home environment. We received photos and video updates of the fun Bruno was having with all the dogs which was very reassuring to us. We were truly able to relax knowing he was in Jonathan's care.

My dog has been going here for years. She loves Jonathan and he brings out the best in her. It"s a home from home for her. I much prefer Pupper's Paradise to other kennels that I have used over the years because my dog is so well treated here. I have no hesitation in recommending this business.

Jonathan is one of the very few people that I would trust my dogs with. He has minded them for me on numerous occasions and they always have a great time.

Thanks Aoife!

This facility looks great but they are not taking any new customers, regulars only. They’re advertising a service that basically isn’t available. They didn’t respond to my email enquiry but I see they replied to my review! If they’re not accepting new customers why do reviews matter?

Jennifer was a wonderful host. Very accommodating with regular updates on Rocky's wellbeing. Thank you!

Wonderful pet service, my dog (Elkhound) has stayed on several occasions now and I couldn't be happier with Gem Dogs and Jen! Every time we take the turn down to Jen's, my dog gets so excited in the car, he knows he is in for a great time and this gives me so much reassurance. He doesn't even want to come home when I go to collect him, but when I eventually get him into the car, he sleeps all the way home and though the night. He's a high-energy dog, yet he comes home very well exercised. The house is absolutely beautiful with a lovely pen for the dogs to eat in and have down time and a gorgeous large back garden too for fun and games. My dog absolutely loved Jen and why wouldn't he, she is a total animal lover, so friendly and welcoming. I'm thrilled to have found this place and wouldn't hesitate to recommend. Will definitely be back again.

Nobody better to leave you dog with! We leave our fella here whenever we go away and he never wants to come home!

Amazingly caring and takes such good care. Couldn’t recommend anyone higher

Great set up and owners care about the dogs which is the main thing!

Very friendly and good value for money

Friendly highly recommended !!!@@@@

Highly recommended

Brill thanks

Daiane and Thiago looked after our French Bulldog, Ralph, while we were away. We could see and feel that they love to look after pets. They were excellent at playing with him in the ball pit, and he came back home smelling great because they also offer grooming services. They sent me regular photos of him, and I couldn’t ask for more. I highly recommend them, and Ralph already misses them!

Daiane is the BEST pet sitter in Dublin. We dropped our dog a few times in other places and we never felt confident that he would be treated with love. When dropping Tom with Daiane, I am fully confident she will treat our dog like hers. She also keep the dogs inside her house which is a big plus because it keeps the same routine our dog have in our house. I recommend this place 100%! I added a few pictures of him there from his last stay in March 2024 having his best time 🐶

I couldn't recommend it more. Daiane was amazing with my dogs. She sent me daily updates on how my dogs were, if they were playing with the other dogs and how they were behaving.

Daiane and Thiago recently looked after our dog Cheddar while we were on holidays and some daycare days. They took amazing care of him, and it is clear how much they love their work and the dogs. Daiane is very professional - whether it's communicating about booking dates or sharing pictures during a pups stay. They have recently added some grooming services and are taking a lot of pride in this work - really great job done. Highly recommend Petville for daycare, short stays, longer or grooming needs!

I highly recommend Daiana and Tiago for anyone looking for exceptional care for their pets. They take amazing care of our English Bulldog, Ozzy, providing him with nice activities throughout the day and giving him the chance to socialize with other dogs. They keep me updated regularly with photos and messages, giving me complete peace of mind. I’m so grateful to have found them, and I truly feel that Ozzy is in a safe and loving environment.

Daiane is a standout dog caregiver, especially for my Chihuahua. She's more than just a sitter; she's a real-life dog whisperer. Each time I had to travel, leaving my fur baby with her was reassuring. Daiane kept me updated with adorable photos and fun tidbits, making my travels worry-free. What's truly special is how my usually timid Chihuahua blossomed in her care, playing happily with other dogs. It's heartwarming yet amusing that my pup would sulk on returning home, clearly missing Daiane's fun-filled haven. In short, Daiane's not just any caregiver; she's a godsend for pet parents, transforming doggy daycare into a joyous and loving experience. I wholeheartedly recommend her for anyone seeking peace of mind and exceptional care for their furry friend.

We entrusted Daiane with our beloved dog for two weeks while we were on holiday, and it was one of the best decisions we've ever made. Not only did she provide the utmost care and attention our dog needed, but she also went above and beyond in keeping us updated on his emotional state and behaviour. Knowing he struggles with being away from us, Daiane's consistent updates were a source of comfort and reassurance that he was in great hands.Daiane displayed remarkable understanding and patience with his attachment issues, treating him with kindness and professionalism. Her advice on managing his behaviour and attachment issues has been invaluable, showing her expertise and genuine concern for his well-being.It's clear that Daiane doesn't just look after pets; she cares for them as if they were her own. Her dedication to ensuring our dog felt loved and secure in our absence was evident in every update and piece of advice she gave us.We are incredibly grateful for Daiane's exceptional service and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a compassionate, skilled, and reliable pet sitter. She truly is a gem in the pet care community.

Daiane and Thiago were recommended to us by a friend who was getting married. He knew my dog was very anxious and had a bit of seperation anxiety due to her previous owners. Daiane listened to all my concerns and recommended doing a trial night to see how she got on and how we got on together. Lets just say it was a flying success. Daiane cared for our pup and consistently (kindly) sent us updates and photos of her status for our reassurance all was well. Since then we have used their services for a few holidays now. Daiane does nothing short of giving our dog a 5 star treatment to ensure she is happy, feels love and is safe. She is always sending our dog off with some treats usually if not always homemade as well as a little toy. We are forever grateful knowing our dog is safe when we are away and loves getting the cuddles.

Our rescue dog Bella loves her holidays with Daiane and her family. We can relax knowing that she is comfortable and well looked after. Bella can be a nervous girl, but Daiane is so loving and patient it is the perfect environment for her.

Daiane is incredible because she brings together genuine love and kindness for the doggies with her exceptional professionalism and innovative approach. Our dog Bambi has mild separation anxiety and Daiane made sure she had a smooth stay - we loved reading her detailed report card after her trial night and her stay. She also prepares the most nutritious treats for the dogs and even organizes pool parties in the garden when the weather permits (or sniff mat indoor party if it rains) She balances providing regular, reassuring updates to the pawrents while focusing on her guests. We're positively surprised how much Bambi enjoyed her stay and made friends while having fun - all thanks to Daiane's approach and experience.

I went to Rabbit Rooms for bonding services when my rescue rabbits began fighting. As a novice bunny owner I felt very out of my depth and anxious of how to best help my buns. Fiona has been a fantastic resource and support throughout the process. I couldn't speak highly enough of the care, understanding and guidance given. Following her directions I was able to adapt to give Hiccups & Bob the best set up to preserve their bond. Often information available online relates to caring for a single bunny, bonded bunnies might require a somewhat different approach. I went from feeling like I would have to re-home one of my boys, to seeing them the happiest they'd ever been. If you can give your rabbits this chance at rebonding please do because you never know what can be achieved with the right support. Hiccups and Bob are now living their best lives thanks to Fiona 🙂

Fiona was wonderful. Amazing with rabbits and helped me through the whole bonding process with my 2 bunnies. I would highly recommend this business for any rabbit needs including bonding rabbits so they can live together happily, and boarding if you are going away, fiona will look after your rabbits as if they were your own!

Rocco, our dwarf rabbit, was back for his hols in the Rabbit Rooms Small Animal Boarding.again last week. Fiona and her lovely family couldn’t have been kinder, giving advice before about what to bring to help Rocco settle, doing a good groom and nail clip for Rocco and sending photos and texts to let us know he was well. It’s a pleasure to do business with The Rabbit Rooms and with Fiona and her family. Rocco will be back in his fave rabbit hotel again in July. And Rocco spent two weeks in the Rabbit Rooms in July/August 2024. He is always relaxed going to Fiona’s and come back in great shape. Very happy with the time and attention she gives him and with her extensive knowledge of all things bunny!

Fiona is amazing at her job! We had a few issues before trying to find a second bunny to bond with our rabbit. After we found a rescue rabbit that we fell in love with we really wanted to take him home but had concerns as we would be attempting to bond two males. Nearly everyone told us this cannot be done and it’s very rare if it is. When we brought our second rabbit home they didn’t really get along, we were so desperate to make it work so we took them to Fiona to get bonded, to our surprise when we went to collect them after their bonding time was up they were cuddling in the one carrier together!! they’re now inseparable and we couldn’t be happier we chose Fiona to do it for us. Seriously changed our lives and certainly Richards (our first rabbit) who was in serious need of company and Lionel who we took in from a rescue who needed a brother to play and cuddle with. I seriously cannot recommend fiona enough! Now instead of separate play times and cages to separate them, they run around together all day and can play and sleep together, it’s heart warming to see them both so happy in each others company.

If you're contemplating sending your bunnies for bonding with Fiona, do not hesitate, because you will not regret it, she is brilliant! She is honestly a Rabbit expert. She bonded our two female buns for us and we couldn't be more grateful. To see them now, the best of friends snuggling, is something I did not think was possible as we had some fights in the past. Fiona works miracles and is not only a rabbit therapist but a human one too because she will reassure you through the whole process! We needed Fionas help because Bonnie was a rescue bun, aggressive and fearful of other rabbits. We thought we made a mistake getting a second rabbit because they would attack each other through the cage. Fiona was able to work her magic and they are now inseparable! Thanks again Fiona, you are doing great work and amazing at what you do! Love Bonnie & Binx xx

Our Bunnies have stayed with Fiona and family for several years now. We'd never cope without her. They are elderly bunnies at this stage and we know when we leave them with Fiona that they are in expert hands. She loves and cares for them as we do. Brownie (11yrs) was a bit 'off' this Summer and Fiona was quick to act. She was great with administering medication and seeking advice from our fantastic vet at Palmerstown Veterinary. It was a tough Summer with the heat at The Rabbit Rooms I'm sure, but Fiona and her fabulous team went to great lengths and kept their visitors cool. Thank you Godmother Fiona! xxx Brownie & Oreo

Toffee our pet rabbit was so well cared for and enjoyed his first stay at The Rabbit Rooms. He was in the company of lots of other rabbits,hamsters and guinea pigs which I wad told appealed to him and he showed great interest in these other furry friends. I am already thinking of prebooking him over the Christmas period. I would highly recommend The Rabbit Rooms for boarding your pet.

I was so delighted with The Rabbit Rooms. I had been nervous to leave my bunny anywhere for two weeks, but Fiona completely put my mind at ease. She sent me regular updates on him including photos of when he’d be spending some (supervised) time out in the garden, and he even got a pamper session while he was there! Will definitely be using The Rabbit Rooms again.

We have used the rabbit rooms a couple of times already and cannot recommend it enough! Fiona is really great with them and they come back very happy and stress free. The online booking system is really handy to see availability and the online portal gives the chance to give any needed information about your pets! The updates are really nice to see how they're getting on when you're away. Thanks Fiona!! :)

Fiona was incredible all the way through with our three bunnies. Chaos and Tiny, both male and Penelope, our female, went in to fiona to be bonded. After just four days of intense work with Fiona, our two males who used to fight regularly are grooming and sleeping beside each other. All three bunnies are loving each other’s company and none of this was possible without Fiona. Great communication all the way though as well as easy, clear instruction for when you pick them up and take them home. Drop off and pick up was as easy as could be. Can’t recommend Fiona’s service enough. 10/10.

I left my two dogs with WeCare boarding for two weeks and I couldn't be happier. Andrew and Ana are both amazing with dogs and my two nervous rescues were really comfortable and happy in their care. Great facilities, great and friendly people. 100% recommended.

We left our cat Luci in Andrew and teams capable hands. He settled in great and we got updates throughout our stay when requested. We highly recommend booking your cat in with the team at We Care Boarding and we know Luci is looking forward to his return visit next year!

Highest standards or care for our little Shitzu dog Riley. He came back so happy and clean, we knew he was really well looked after. Top facilities and Andrew and the team make sure you have no concerns. Highly recommended. Thanks to We Care because they really do care and not just tick a box.

We brought our rescue dog Teddy to stay with Andrew and the team for a little over a week. He's small and timid and very anxious around big dogs. Andrew and the team were brilliant in catering for his needs and every day we got a pic or video sent of how Teddy was doing. It gave us great piece of mind and I would absolutely recommend Wecare Boarding . Rhayader were fantastic!

Super experience twice now with our border collie pup. She is very happy being dropped off, Andrew and his team show great affection for all the dogs in their care, I wouldn't leave our pup anywhere else, thanks 👍 …

I left Scout, my seven-month-old golden retriever for 9 nights in the capable hands of Andrew and his staff. It was the first time Scout had attended a kennels and she loved her time there. She was able to run daily with other dogs and it was a very natural environment for her. Picture and video updates were delivered very promptly when requested while I was on holidays and Scout really enjoyed her holidays at Wecare Boarding too. Scout came back from her holidays a calmer and less reactive puppy! I will certainly be using these boarding kennels again.

Brought our lab Bailey here to stay for the first time for 10 days. He is a little shy initially and Andrew and the team were so good with him. We could see from updates shared with us that he was settling well and having loads of social time and fun with the other dogs. This is the perfect place to leave your dog knowing they'll be well looked after and happy and we will definitely be using WeCare Boarding again. I would highly recommend.

My dog Cooper had his first stay away from home with Andrew and the team recently and had an amazing time. I was very nervous leaving him in kennels at all but as soon as we arrived we knew we were leaving him with people who love animals, its the most beautiful location with so much space for the dogs to play. Cooper can be an anxious dog but we could see in the videos we were sent over the week that he was very at home. I would have absolutely no hesitation in recommending We Care to anyone with a dog or cat looking for a home from home for their fur baby. Thank you again Andrew and team.

Left Pippa in WeCare Boarding for 12 nights, was concerned as this is the longest time that Pippa would have been in kennels. Well I need not have worried at all as Andrew and his staff took such good care of Pippa and sent me messages and videos of her while we were away. A big thank you to everyone in WeCare Boarding.

Our dog milo had the best time at WeCareBoarding. He came back in great form and smelling fantastic after his blow dry.
