Not too keen on kennels? I offer a home from home environment in Callan, Co.Kilkenny, for your beloved dog to relax in the comfort of my home.

I live in a detached house 10 minutes outside Kilkenny City with my two Coton de Tulear dogs Lily and Oscar who are aged 10!and 15yrs old! Last year we looked after a neighbours dog, my dogs enjoyed the company, we decided to make it a regular occurrence so here we are!! I work from home (Mon-Fri) so my mornings and evenings are free, I've decided to only offer dog boarding as that's what suits us best. It's nice to offer a home away from home to dog owners who’d like their loved one in a homely environment. Your dog will be in a homely environment, treated as part of our family whilst you're secure in the knowledge that your dog is being taken care of!

We get up about 7/8am, dogs are fed and we then go for a 1hr+ walk around the Castle park. Upon returning home, they get a treat and settle into the office or a cosy spot around the house for the afternoon. The garden doors are open to come and go as they please. Quick evening walk around 6/7pm and generally lights out by 10/11pm.

Guests have full access downstairs and to the living room in the evening to relax beside the fire for a more comforting environment. I find dogs settle in quickly when they initially arrive, Lily and Oscar are very laid back. It makes for a calm and peaceful experience especially if this is their first time away from home.
