Holiday Home for Dogs

Dog Lover with no dog! I can’t commit to a full-time dog myself at the moment but need to fill that void! Love a dog in the house and often mind my family’s various dogs. Walking just feels wasted without a dog to enjoy it with! I have an enclosed secure garden and working from home means I am there to keep your dog company and provide lunchtime walks as well! There are lots of lovely parks nearby in Ballinlough, Blackrock and the Tramore Valley Park is a short drive away. At the weekend I love to head to the beach at Fountainstown where dogs just have the best time when the tide is out. There are lots of new dogs to meet and play with and/or great space to explore and just potter about doing their own thing! You will have no worries when you leave your dog with me and my daughter. We will take great care of your best buddy. 😊

Gill is amazing. We have a very shy Berneese and she was so patient, attentive, we got video updates. I cant thank her enough. Gill has a natural way with dogs. We will be returning!

Gill looked after Rory for two nights while we were at a family event in Cork, and I honestly couldn’t have asked for better care. She kept us updated the whole time, which really put our minds at ease. Rory had wonderful walks, made some new friends, and came home relaxed, happy, and completely himself, always the best sign! We were also so grateful that Gill was able to accommodate us at late notice. Thanks so much, Gill, we really appreciate everything you did.

Gill did an amazing job minding our dogs for our wedding. We felt really at ease that they were comfortable with her and got lovely updates on how they were getting on. I would highly recommend Gill to anyone 😊

Gill is an amazing pet sitter and Frankie, our very energetic 9 month old cocker spaniel, adores her! ❤️ Frankie stayed with Gill twice over the last few months and we always know she’s in safe hands when she’s with her! Would highly recommend!

Gill is like a dog whisperer. Bruno was so relaxed with Gill, he was minded so well and we received regular videos and pictures. Can't thank you enough Gill.
