Welcome pets!

Hi there animal lovers and parents! My name is Auriel and I grew up with animals on a farm in Co. Meath. My whole life has revolved around animals, particularly dogs, cats and horses. I have many years of experience looking after them from the age of 2/3. I know how to treat animals and I know what they need on a daily basis. I respect them and love them. In 2023, sadly, my older dog Zara passed away recently from cancer, and I miss her a lot and would like company now for my other little dog. He is a Jack Russell Terrier and very happy. He is very friendly with other dogs and cats! He gets lots of exercise, is shown lots of love and affection every day but he would like to play more! He is very good with other dogs but prefers small dogs. I know how to look after animals properly as they've always been a big part of my life and was taught how to do it from a very early age. I'll look after your pet well and look forward to making them welcome in my home and happy while out on walks etc. I will update you with photos and videos so you will be reassured that your pet is doing great! Toby is NOT neutered. Please bear this in mind. Thankyou

Auriel and Toby made our doggo so welcome. They sensed her needs and took care of her like royalty. She had loads of walks and fun and they updated us regularly with lots of photos and videos. We have no hesitation in giving them our highest recommendation and hope to revisit in the future. Sincere thanks, Auriel & Toby!

Katie had a nice weekend with Auriel and Toby. This was her first time staying away from home and so pleased she settled in well with her new buddy Toby. It was great to meet up and introduce everyone beforehand. This was much appreciated, thanks to Auriel. Will definitely book Katie in for her hols again.

Leo had a fabulous holiday with Auriel and his new friend Toby. Auriel is a natural with dogs which was very obvious from our first meeting - Leo was completely at ease with her and so was I. She was interested in knowing about Leo’s health concerns which I found very reassuring. Leo is not great with other dogs but Auriel knew how to manage Leo and Toby’s introduction and they quickly became friends! Auriel ensured that Leo was brought for walks - she lives in a fabulous place with lots of places to bring dogs for exercise - she also brought Toby and Leo to the beach for a run around. I would highly recommend Auriel as a dog sitter and will have no hesitation in leaving Leo with her and Toby again and I know Leo would love to spend another holiday with his new friends ❤️
