Hi, I’m David, 31 years old and I’m based in Ballincollig. I’ve always had a huge love for dogs and cared for my own dog, Jackson, for over 11 years before he sadly passed away in April. He was a friendly half-Lab, half-Pitbull who brought so much joy to my life. I’m a very active, reliable and patient person who genuinely enjoys spending time with dogs. I have the most experience with medium to larger-sized dogs, but I’m happy to care for dogs of all sizes and breeds. I’ll treat your dog with the same care, attention and affection I gave my own. I also have an enclosed back garden where dogs can safely relax or have some extra space to explore. Dog walking: I offer 45–60 minute walks around Ballincollig and can adapt the walk to your dog’s needs. I drive, so I’m also happy to discuss meeting somewhere more suitable. Meet & Greet: I’m happy to arrange a meet and greet beforehand so you and your dog can get to know me and make sure we’re comfortable before booking. Home boarding & daycare: Your dog will stay with me in a comfortable home environment and receive plenty of attention, exercise and downtime.I’ll aim to keep them as close to their normal routine as possible, with access to my enclosed garden. Home visits: I can visit your pet at home to provide food, water, company and attention. Availability: Mondays, Tuesdays, and weekends suit me best, with lunchtime and evening availability on most other days. I generally work half days in the office Tuesday–Thursday but can be flexible with notice. Collection times are usually around 6:30pm, although I may have some flexibility depending on the day. Really looking forward to spending time with dogs again and hopefully meeting you and your pet soon!
