Dog Boarding Drogheda

About: I have been taking care of dogs since I was young, and I truly love spending time with them. Friends, neighbors, and family trust me to look after their pets, including feeding, walking, and playing with them. I am patient, responsible, and attentive to each dog’s needs. I can take care of puppies as well as older dogs, and I always make sure they feel safe, happy, and loved. I have plenty of free time to give your dogs my full attention and care. I am available throughout the week, including weekends. I can provide walks, playtime, feeding, and lots of love to make sure your pet feels happy, safe, and comfortable. I am also flexible and can easily adapt to your pet’s routine and specific needs. I provide a safe, loving, and calm environment for your pet. I have a fenced garden where dogs can play and enjoy fresh air safely. I make sure every pet feels comfortable, cared for, and well supervised at all times. I always follow the owner’s instructions, including feeding, routines, and any special needs. Your pet’s safety and happiness are always my top priority.

“Ash is amazing and we feel really comfortable in trusting Ibra to her. He loves to stay at her place and play with Duke. I wouldn’t hesitate to contact Ash again!”

About: Hi there! I’m a certified veterinarian from Mexico who recently moved to Ireland in June 2026. Back home, my life always revolved around animals—from dogs and cats to rabbits and fish. Right now, my beloved cat is staying with my parents, and because I miss her and the daily joy that pets bring into a home, I decided to join Pawshake. For me, this is not just a job; it is a way to fill my heart while providing the absolute best care for your best friend. 🩺 Professional Veterinary Background I have always been deeply committed to animal welfare, which led me to study Veterinary Medicine. I graduated in 2020, and since then, I have worked continuously in veterinary hospitals and clinics. What this means for your pet: I have extensive experience in animal health, monitoring behavior, and recognizing subtle signs of stress or discomfort. Specialized Care: If your pet is a senior, has chronic medical conditions, or requires specific medication (oral, injections, etc.), they will be in the safest hands possible. I am fully trained to handle medical needs with the utmost gentleness and precision. 🕊️ My Lifelong Bond with Dogs Throughout my life, I have given my heart to four beautiful dogs, most of whom were rescued from the streets. They taught me everything I know about unconditional love, patience, and senior pet care: Pirata: A beautiful French Poodle mix who was gifted to me by my grandfather when I was just 3 years old; he lived a long, happy life until the age of 18. Buba: A sweet Labrador who was with us until she was 12. Dokho: A brave companion who lived to be 15, whom I lovingly cared for through his heart and liver failure. Pam: A Labrador who completely changed my life and passed away two years ago at age 12 due to chronic kidney disease. Losing Pam was heartbreaking, and because I knew I wanted to travel and explore the world, I chose not to get another dog of my own until I fully settle down. Caring for your pet will truly bring that missing joy back into my life. 🏡 What I Offer I will treat your pet exactly as if they were my own—with unconditional love, respect, and deep professional attention. Whether it is a high-energy walk, keeping up with their strict feeding schedules, or simply providing a calm, affectionate presence so they don't feel lonely, I am here for them. Since I am highly organized and communicative, you can expect regular updates, photos, and peace of mind knowing your furry family member is being looked after by a professional who genuinely cares. I can't wait to meet your pet and give them a home away from home! Please feel free to reach out with any questions or special requirements. 🐕✨ My weekly routine is highly structured and predictable, making it easy to provide consistent, quality care. I study in the mornings, which keeps my schedule very stable. Once my classes are over, I organize my time so that I have my afternoons completely free to be at home, relaxing and keeping the pets company. Since I love exercising and going for daily walks, I absolutely enjoy incorporating dog walks into my active routine—it's the perfect match! This way, I can ensure the dogs get plenty of outdoor exercise and fun, while still enjoying a calm, attentive, and cozy environment once we are back home. In my home: I live in a cozy, smaller apartment, so I make sure to compensate for the space by keeping the dogs active outdoors. If your pet stays with me, I will adjust my schedule to take them out for more frequent walks and exercise. This way, they can burn off their energy outside and enjoy a calm, relaxed, and comfortable environment once we are back home. In the owner's home: If you prefer me to care for your pet in their own home, my absolute priority is to respect and maintain their exact daily routine. I know how important stability is for pets, so I will strictly follow their usual feeding, walking, and playtime schedules. This ensures they feel completely comfortable, safe, and happy in their familiar environment, making your time away as stress-free as possible for them.

“Kleyton was a great dog sitter. Monty, had a fab time. Lots of updates throughout the stay. The videos and photos were really appreciated. Would definitely recommend him, and hope to use his service again, and I know Monty would love that too!”

“We could not be happier with Jonathan as our dog minder. Moose had the best time with him. He could not have taken better care of him. Would highly recommend.”

About: Im having pets for most of my life and now my 2 daughters are enjoying living surrounded by them. I have experience with kittens and puppies 100% I have 2 cats and 1 dog at home. Ur life pretty much involves pets, playing and feeding them. Your pet will be in safe hands! I have pets always indoors so not a chance to get lost. They have two floors to play around and sleep wherever they want too.

“I was a bit worried about leaving my Border Collie Shep with Monica as he is young, nervous and very bossy. I need not have worried. The first pictures Monica sent me showed him to be content, and for the rest of the week the pictures and videos demonstrated Shep to be enjoying his holiday as much as I was enjoying mine. Thank you Monica and family for taking such good care of him.”

About: I've been regularly dog sitting for family and friends for 6 years. I walk usually twice a day, in the morning and evening ensuring lots of activity for any dogs who need plenty of exercise. I have a fully secure garden in a terraced house meaning safety for your pet. I work full time from home so will be here to keep your favourite fluffy family member company on their visit. I have no kids or pets in the house to worry about so your dog will get all the attention they need to settle in and without any worry about other household members. Weekdays im up at 7, take a 30 minute walk. I work from home 8-5 and then head out for another walk for about 45 mins/1 hour. I have a fully walled garden meaning total safety for your pet. No pets or kids in the house so you can rest easy while you're away.

“Alfie had a great weekend with Stella! Was so exhausted from all the fun when we got home. She did a great job from the minute I contacted her she was so professional and lovely to deal with! ”

About: I have 2 beautiful Golden Retrievers who stole my heart on day 1, they are playful, boisterous and loving pups that have made me love animals. I have lots of experience with a variety of breeds and sizes due to volunteering with a local rescue. With cats, I have done my own fundraising to TNR feral colonies in the local area! I also have 2 beautiful furbabies that I rescued at 5 weeks old. I still work regularly with a colony of cats in Ardee that my partner and I have got neutered and have a soft spot for rescues 💕 I work part time as a social care worker, but I want to work more with animals. I think this would be the perfect way to spend the rest of my time! Due to having animals already and knowing introductions take a long time, my house will not be available for sitting. I am happy to go to your home and will care for your furbaby as you wish.

“Alexandre is really great with our dogs and takes care of them so well I have no hesitation in using him again ans recommending him to others”

“Anastasia took excellent care of my 4 month old Schnauzer Mocha, who seemed to have a great time in their care by getting to play with the other dogs who were also staying over and getting brought out for frequent walks, with Ana providing frequent updates along the way. No complaints - would definitely use this service again and would highly recommend to others considering using their services.”

“Philip provided a fantastic ‘home away from home’ for Kobe. We loved how Philip always sent us regular messages and videos about how Kobe was doing while we were away. We knew that Kobe was in safe and loving hands, which is all we could ask for. Thank you Philip from the McGranns and from Kobe and we look forward to using you again very soon. ”

About: I have years of experience sitting and walking dogs and cats through pet care platforms, alongside a lifelong personal history with animals of my own. I have particular experience caring for pets with special needs — including anxiety and attachment issues, genetic conditions, physical limitations, allergies, and specific dietary requirements. My own dog lives with patellar luxation, so I understand firsthand how much it means to owners to know their sitter genuinely understands their animal’s care needs. Every dog or cat in my home is treated as part of the household — they’re able to move freely within the house and garden. I always keep dogs on the leash outdoors, unless instructed otherwise. Indoors, animals are free to relax on the couch, nap where they like, and join in daily activities suited to their own personality, energy level, and needs. If your pet is crate trained, there’s plenty of space for their own crate or bed. I guarantee plenty of play, if that’s what they’re into. An ideal day dog sitting would involve walking along Dublin’s canal and paying a visit at the dog park in Dublin 1, behind Dublin’s Basin Park.

About: Hi! I’m a dog-loving mom in my mid-30s living with my young family of four in a peaceful countryside setting. We’re lucky to have five acres of land, including two and a half acres that are fully fenced—perfect for safe, supervised play and exploring. We’re also just a short distance from the beach (less than 2km away), where I walk daily with our dog. Your dog will enjoy plenty of fresh air, exercise, and stimulation as part of our routine. We have a friendly, young Golden Retriever Rough Collie cross who is playful, gentle, and gets along really well with other dogs. Our home is very much a dog-loving environment, and any visiting dog will be treated like part of the family. I also have several years of experience volunteering with assistance dogs, where I trained three puppies who went on to support families. This has given me a strong understanding of dog behaviour, training, and care. Your dog will be in safe, caring, and experienced hands with us. Both myself and my husband, Ciaran, work from home so someone will always be around to care for your pet. I know how important it is to trust someone with your pet, and I’ll make sure they feel happy, comfortable, and well looked after. Our home has a consistent and flexible routine, with plenty of company throughout the week. I work from home three days a week, and my husband works from home on the other two, so there is always someone around to supervise, care for, and spend time with the dogs. We’re very active day-to-day. I take our dog out for one to two walks daily, often including trips to the nearby beach, as well as time exploring our private land. At home, dogs have access to over two and a half acres of fully fenced garden and an attached field, giving them lots of safe space to run, play, and relax. Between walks, outdoor time, and being part of family life indoors, dogs staying with us enjoy a balanced routine of exercise, stimulation, and rest. Dogs staying with us are welcomed as one of our own, sharing our home and daily life. They can relax indoors with the family or enjoy plenty of time outside playing and exploring at their own pace.

“Nellie had her second sitting with Tharini and this time Tharini had her for a week and everything went great! I had loads of updates of how Nellie was which was throughout and she seemed to be having a great time! Nellie really seems to love it there! Will definitely be back again 😊”

“Incredible dog boarding experience!! We were nervous leaving our dog alone for the first time since we got him but received regular updates and he was clearly so comfortable with Daria ☺️☺️”

Kinga G.

“We are very grateful for the care he provided for our dog during these five days. He was very attentive and responsible, always making sure our dog was doing well and keeping us updated the whole time with photos and messages. You can tell he treated him with a lot of kindness. Our dog was very happy and comfortable, and we would definitely trust him again. Highly recommended!”

“Looked after G very well and communicated with me throughout my trip which made me feel at ease and able to enjoy knowing G was safe with Lucas”

Rebecca F.

“This was our first time leaving Rocky with Niamh and Dan and it was a great success. I don’t think Rocky wanted to come home when I came to collect him. Both clearly dog lovers and great bonus for Rocky to have company and fun with their own dog. Great communication from Niamh. Will be booking in again soon.”
