Ratings and reviews
We had such a great experience with Faolán! She stayed at our house for the weekend and took such amazing care of our dog. He has epilepsy and needs his medication on a pretty strict schedule, but she was so calm, caring, and attentive with him, which really put us at ease. She was also super responsive and kept us updated with regular messages and photos, which we loved. We came home to a very happy dog and a spotless house. We really couldn’t have asked for a better sitter and would absolutely have her stay again!

Faolán looked after our house and two rescue dogs on very short notice, and she did an excellent job. She was calm and professional with the dogs, and they easier felt comfortable with her. Faolán provided updates for us with photos throughout her stay and we retuned to a clean house and happy dogs. I would definitely recommend Faolán and will use her again.


She is very experienced and clearly knows how to handle dogs so well. Even though my dog can be so energetic sometimes, she stays calm, patient, and positive. You can tell she has a lot of empathy and truly cares, while also knowing how to guide them with confidence and positive reinforcement. I really appreciate her help and would definitely recommend her.

Most prompt folks to work with! Akhshaan and Faolán are extremely accommodating and eased my worries - especially taking care of larger dogs (which is hard experience to come by). They maintain consistency with Nori and she came back tuckered out at the end of the day. Will be returning for their service and care!

Akhshaan & Faolán were the best sitters we could ask for! They went out of there way to play with watson, buy him a toy and gave him all the cuddles he asked for. They were prompt with communication and kept us updated throughout. They made the whole experience smooth and we will definitely use them again. 5 stars and above for them!!

Schedule
🐶 I am a student, and freelance writer. Currently, my schedule is fortunately flexible. 🐶 Please refer to the calendar - I plan in advance to ensure that I take bookings on days when I can give your canine/feline family members nothing less than my 300% 🐶 I lead an active lifestyle; chances are I'll be playing and walking around with your pet at the dog park for hours. As a half-marathon runner, I love nothing more than going on long jogs with canine companions. It is my endeavor to energetically outlast every canine (and feline) I spend time with.
Where your pet will stay
Home characteristics
Safety, trust & environment
All pets will be with me all day, so enrichment, affection, and play is never off the table. Higher energy clients can get up to three walks per day, but we can also keep things easy and relaxed for more senior animals or those who prefer a calm, relaxing, and low stimulation stay.
A typical day
I will always keep your pup/ feline entertained. I love playing catch, frisbee, tug of war and just simply running freestyle. With parks nearby, there's no shortage of nature-based enrichment and exercise.
