Hi, my name is Caroline. I live in south Dublin near to Terenure. I am a stay at home mother of 2 teenage girls and a 3yr old setter/poodle cross called Barley! We have a large enclosed garden (40m long) perfect for playing and throwing ball. There are also lots of large parks nearby, Bushy and Tymon park are where we usually go for walks. We all LOVE animals so if your dog stays with us they will be treated like one of the family!

Before I became a mum I was a veterinary assistant for 3 years, then left when I had my daughters. I absolutely loved working with animals, in fact before we had Barley we had a cat called Flynn for 14 years. He was my foster fail, brought him home from the practice for the weekend and he stayed for 14 years until he passed away 💕

Your dog will be staying in our home, Barley usually sleeps on the sofa in the kitchen or sitting room. Your dog can snuggle up with him or choose their own spot, there are plenty of places to choose.

As your pet will be staying in our home, he/she must be up to date with flea and worm treatments, vaccinations and must be neutered/spayed.

I know from personal experience how hard it can be leaving your pet but rest assured they will be treated with so much love and care while they stay with us.

I have worked with dogs and small animals on a daily basis for over three years at a veterinary practice and have an ideal home and enclosed garden so that your dog will be perfectly happy in every way.
