Top cities for doggy day care in Ireland

For pet parents, one of the hardest things about going to work each day is wondering what your dog will get up to while you are gone. At Pawshake, we understand that dogs need activity and interaction during the day, so why not book your dog with one of our trusted sitters in Ballincollig for a home day care service? You can drop your dog off at the sitter’s home on the way to work or organise with your local Ballincollig Pawshake sitter to pick up and drop off your dog for you.

Pet day care is a great way to keep your dog mentally and physically active during the day so that you can come home to a happy, relaxed dog. Pawshake’s home day care service is great for young dogs who need constant supervision: puppy daycare allows your pup to maintain a consistent routine, which is important during the toilet training process. It’s also a great option for dogs who need extra care and attention, or those who are extra active.

Our sitters who offer home day care and puppy daycare services are more adaptable than your average big day care centre. Numbers are kept small and some Pawshake sitters will only take in one dog at a time. This means they can work around your timing and any special requirements your dog may have. So, let your four-legged best friend enjoy their day with a fun and loving Ballincollig sitter who will shower them with love and dedicated attention. On top of that, you will also get photos and updates during the day so that you can follow your dog’s day care adventures!

Every day care booking also comes included with The Pawshake Guarantee, which includes veterinary coverage, customer service support 7 days a week and more.

Hi there! I'm an animal lover with a big heart and lots of experience caring for pets. Over the years, I’ve looked after cats, dogs, birds, fish and even snakes! Each pet is unique, and I enjoy getting to know their personalities and meeting their individual needs with love and attention. For me, being a pet sitter isn’t just a job—it’s a true passion.About My Home:My home is pet-friendly, with a corridor and a cozy living room. There’s a door that leads to a backyard, fully enclosed with high walls, ensuring safety and privacy. Your pet will have the freedom to roam around the house and enjoy the small outdoor area, which is perfect for playtime and burning energy. On rainy days, we keep the door slightly open, so your pet can still step outside to relieve themselves if needed, as per the owner’s instructions.My Services:You can leave your pet with me for the day or overnight—I’m flexible with schedules to accommodate your needs. Rest assured, your pet will never be left alone. Someone will always be around to provide care, attention, and companionship. In the rare case of an emergency or if I need to leave for a short period, I will inform you immediately.Additionally, I update pet owners daily with photos and videos of their beloved animals. This way, you’ll always feel comfortable and reassured, knowing your pet is happy, safe, and well cared for.My Commitment:My motivation comes from the unconditional love animals give us and the joy of ensuring they feel safe and happy, even when their owners are away. I understand how important it is for pet owners to trust someone with their furry (or scaly!) family members, and I’m committed to providing the best care possible.I only accept vaccinated pets to ensure everyone stays safe and healthy. If you're looking for someone reliable, responsible, and completely dedicated to your pet’s happiness, I’d love to help!

Hello! I’m Esra, living in Mahon, Blackrock, Cork.

I love animals, nature, walking, and rainy weather. I’ve been caring for cats and dogs for many years and have a strong understanding of their behavior. I provide safe, loving, and enriching care for your furry friends.

I focus on fun walks, playtime, and creating a calm, stress-free environment. Before confirming a booking, I prefer to meet you and your pet at your home to make sure we’re both comfortable and well-prepared.

  Dog Walking Service

I enjoy walking in all kinds of weather—rainy, windy, hot, or cold—and would love to take your dog along. I adapt my pace to your dog’s needs and can walk dogs of any breed or personality as long as I understand their behavior.

Whether your dog prefers a short stroll or a longer walk, I’ll do my best to tailor the experience. Let me know what your dog likes, dislikes, or fears (cars, people, other dogs), and I’ll adjust my approach accordingly.

 Cat care service

I offer calm and attentive home visits to ensure your cat is cared for in the comfort of their own space. During my visits, I refresh their food and water, check the litter box, and spend gentle time with your cat so they feel safe, seen, and not alone.


Every cat has a unique personality — whether shy or playful, I adapt my approach to suit your cat’s needs, always aiming to create a sense of calm and trust. While you’re away, you can feel at ease knowing your cat is cared for with kindness in their familiar environment.


 Home Visit

If you’re away, I’ll take care of your pet at home—making sure they have food, fresh water, companionship, and most importantly, safety.

We are based in Carrigaline and offer a home away from home for your four legged friends. Myself and my partner Phil have grown up with dogs and have a huge amount of experience with different breeds. Small and large. I am a primary school teacher who subs occasionally so it is great to fit something I love in on days where I'm not in work. 
We currently have a Weimaraner/Lab X and a new Great Dane puppy that love the company of other dogs. We love them both to bits and know how important it is to have a space for you to send your family member when you can't be at home to mind them. 
We are an active household and are happy to provide individualised care and support for your furry friends. We are lucky to have a dog park nearby along with plenty of beaches and walks to cater for everyone's needs.
We ask that all dogs are;
*Fully up to date with vaccines and wormers 
*Toilet trained
*Dog friendly 
*Males should ideally be neutered
House calls and walking services are also available. 
Get in touch with any questions you have and we will do our best to get back to you asap. 
Please note:
A meet and greet will be required before taking on any new clients. 
All the best, 
Karen, Phil, Nova &amp; Cali  


Whether it’s short visits, walks, or overnight stays, me and my handsome Greyhound George will treat your pet as if they were our own.&nbsp;
I have previous experience caring for both dogs and cats, including feeding, walking, playtime, and giving lots of cuddles. I used be be a foster for DAWG so I have ample experience with all the different characteristics dogs have to offer. I am also patient and attentive, making sure pets are comfortable in my home or in their own familiar environment.&nbsp;As can be seen in my photos. I have a large fully enclosed garden for them to run around in. Ialso have multiple dog beds for them to rest, but have absolutely no issue when sleeping on couches or in bed with me. Whatever is their norm and they're comfortable.&nbsp;I am a genuine animal lover who understands the importance of providing pets with the same care and attention they receive from their owners. Having grown up around animals and currently sharing my home with my own gentle and goofy man George, I know how much trust it takes to leave your family member in someone else’s hands. My motivation to be a pet sitter comes from the joy I get in spending time with animals and helping owners feel at ease knowing their pets are happy, safe, and loved.For safety, I only take in vaccinated and neutered dogs, as their health and wellbeing are my top priority.&nbsp;

Hi! I’m Iván and I’ve always loved animals. I grew up with two black cats called Nico and Kika, who we found as kittens on the street. They have lived in my family home in Spain ever since, so I’ve spent most of my life living with cats and taking care of them. Because of this, I’m very used to feeding them, playing with them, cleaning after them and understanding their different personalities.I have also taken care of dogs for friends and neighbours, including walks, feeding and spending time with them so they don’t feel lonely while their owners are away. I really enjoy being around animals and making sure they feel comfortable and relaxed.I’m happy to look after different kinds of pets such as dogs, cats, rabbits and other small animals.I’m a calm, responsible and tidy person, and my goal is simple: to make sure your pet feels safe, happy and well looked after while you’re away.

Hi, I'm David and based in Ballincollig. I've always had a huge love for dogs and owned one of my own over 11 years but he sadly passed away in April. Jackson was a friendly half-Lab, half Pitbull who taught me how much joy and loyalty dogs bring to your life. 
I'm a very active person and while I have the most experience with medium to bigger sized dogs, I am open to walking all kinds. I'm reliable, patient and I genuinely enjoy spending time with dogs. I'll treat each dog with the same care and attention I gave my own.
Available for walks around Ballincollig, I am happy to walk dogs whether they are vaccinated or not and I am usually available for longer walks if that suits your dog. I also drive so I can come to meet you if that is more suitable. Really looking forward to spending time with dogs again!

Hi there, pet parents! If you are looking for a reliable sitter who will love, spoil, and care for your pet just like family, you are in the right place! My name is Yasmin, and I have been absolutely crazy about animals for as long as I can remember. Growing up with pets taught me exactly how to read happy tail wags, demanding meows, and unique animal behaviors. I also bring extensive professional caretaking experience, meaning reliability, safety, and attention to detail come naturally to me.
I specialize in Pet Sitting (home visits) and Dog Walking, managing up to 3 to 4 visits or walks per day to ensure every pet gets my full, unhurried attention. My visits last about 1 hour and include feeding, fresh water refills, cleaning spaces, and playtime! For walks, I do fun, 45-minute routes. I have hands-on experience handling different types and sizes of pets, from energetic large dogs to small, sensitive cats. If your pet is nervous or shy, I use a patient, gentle approach, giving them space until they feel safe and comfortable around me.
I am highly experienced with special needs and multi-pet households. In fact, one of my most rewarding experiences was caring for a paraplegic cat named Chico for over a year. This taught me a profound level of patience, gentle handling, and specialized care routines, so I am incredibly comfortable with elderly pets, administering oral medications, or following precise medical guidelines exactly as prescribed.
Safety, training, and trust are my top priorities. I am happy to reinforce basic training commands (like sit, stay, or heel) during our walks. To build trust, I always recommend a free meet-and-greet beforehand. When out on walks, pets are always securely leashed, and I constantly monitor them for any signs of anxiety or fatigue.
I am fully prepared for unexpected situations. In the rare event of an emergency, I keep your veterinarian's contact info and the nearest 24/7 animal hospital details saved on my phone, and I will immediately contact you while keeping your pet secure.
I am fully available on weekends and offer flexible hours during the week. You can travel completely stress-free, as I promise to send you plenty of cute photos and daily text updates! Let’s chat and set up a time to meet!

Growing up I was always surrounded by family pets &amp; animals, from a tiny hamster to a huge horse. I was always taught to treat all animals with respect &amp; love. The unconditional love of an animal cannot be matched. That is what I aim to provide through my petsitting service, an environment where your pet feels safe &amp; loved.
Myself &amp; my wife Lorna lived in Auckland, New Zealand for 3 years. While there we were petsitters for Pawshake &amp; it was one of the best experiences, we had many repeat clients who we miss terribly. We were thrilled when we realized Pawshake operates in Ireland too &amp; that we would have the opportunity to continue petsitting here. We have now been petsitting for 7 years &amp; we adore it.
If we were looking after your pet you can be guaranteed they would have our undivided attention &amp; care for the time we are with them. As active people who love to keep fit dogwalking is the perfect excuse to get out for some fresh air. We would offer a maximum of 1 hour long walks with possible trips to a beach or park on the weekends. We have experience with older dogs, dogs that are not quite lead trained &amp; administering medications. We have looked after may animals, from cats &amp; dogs to chinchillas &amp; bearded dragons. During home visits we would stay for a maximum of 45 minutes making sure everything requested for this time is complete. During home stays we will look after the house like it is our own, always leaving it the same way we found it. We can also provide many reviews and feedback from our clients in New Zealand &amp; Ireland. 
Lorna works Monday- Friday, most days from home, while I work 3 days a week so we have quite a lot of flexibility. We hope you will consider Claws 'n' Paws as your petsitting service &amp; we look forward to hearing from you.
