Grainne has grown up with pets her entire life and always been an animal lover. She is an amazing caretaker to everyone in her life, especially animals. She even helped raise and care for a litter of puppies. She loves to spend time with her dog, Kovu. From throwing the ball in the yard to taking him on long walks around the neighborhood. My own dog is always excited to see her when we meet up for doggie playdates. Grainne is attentive, reliable, caring and trustworthy. Your pet will have a great time and will be so safe in her hands!

Hello Rover. I am pleased to recommend Grainne for a pet caregiver role. I have known her since she was 5 years old and she has grown to become an exceptional young woman, very responsible and hard working. Her family has always had multiple pets, both cats and dogs which were well cared for. She cared for my 2 Goldendoodles in the past and was loved by both.

Information Grainne & Orna E. would like to know about your pet

Information Grainne would like to know about your pet Dogs staying at my home: - Are they cat, dog & baby friendly? - Can they go for a walk? Tell us what to watch out for (pulls, chases squirrels, barks/lunges at other dogs, able to slip harness/collar, etc). - What commands do they know? - Are they crate-trained? - Any dietary restrictions / allergies? Drop-in visits: - Provide me with a 2-3 hour window and I will provide service within that time frame. - How do I gain access to your home? - Where are things located? (Food, treats, litter box, toys, towel for dirty paws, leash, etc.) - Where does your cat hide and is it okay for me to go looking around your house for him/her? - What services would you like me to provide during the visit? (Walking, feeding, scooping litter box, playing, brushing, cuddling, etc.)

A typical day

At home: Dogs are free to roam and relax, whether it's on their own bed or snuggled up on the sofa. During walks: We take dogs for one or more walks per day, with additional potty breaks as needed. If the weather isn't ideal, they can still have fun playing in our fully fenced-in backyard. Feeding: We strictly adhere to the owner's instructions during feeding time, ensuring each dog eats only the food provided by its owner, including treats. Medications: We're equipped to administer medications and supplements as needed, with no extra charge. Additionally, we can provide injections if required, with an additional fee. What to bring: Owners should bring their dog's food and leash/collar. While bringing a bed is optional, it's not necessary. Important Information: - Boarding is charged by the day, not on a 24-hour basis. - Daycare rates apply for stays up to 8 hours, with pick-up before 5 pm on weekdays. Extended hours or later pick-ups may be accommodated, but they are charged at the boarding rate. We prioritize your pup's comfort and enjoyment during their stay with us. If you have any questions or need further information, please feel free to reach out. We're excited to welcome you and your furry friend!
