**I broke my ankle in November and I am slowly getting back to normal, but for the time being am not able to walk dogs**
I am 39 years old and have a FETAC Certificate in Animal Care. I have many years experience of animal handling from horses to dogs and cats, reptiles, birds, fish and everything in between. I have work experience in pet shops, doggy daycare and riding schools. I offer dog walking in Bray, Greystones and surrounding areas.
I have experience with large dogs and difficult dogs. I own a very rambunctious Newfoundland so am used to string dogs! I can take dogs in my car for off lead walks or walk them in around their locality depending on their own needs. I do not do group walks. I only take dogs together who I have introduced and am sure get along. I do one-to-one walks for dogs who need personal attention, or can take up to three dogs who are friends. I do not take more than three in one walk.
Cats are my favourite of all and I have a natural affinity with them. I can care for your cats in your own home while you are away.
I also do home visits and can care foe small mammals (rabbits, rats, gerbils etc) and exotics (reptiles, birds, fish) in your own home. I have experience feeding and taking care of small mammals. I owned budgies my entire life so can care for parrot and finch types easily.
I have trusted returning clients and available references.
Thanks for looking!
It has been a great relief for us to have found Deirdre through Pawshake. She is very friendly and extremely reliable. Our dog Bailey loves when she visits.
Deirdre was great and looked after our 2 cats for 2 days, would recommend!
