Mario & Kristine

Both of us are avid dog lovers! We can't pass a doggie without saying "Hi!!!", waving and smiling- dogs are the best! We always wanted to have a dog of our own, but as we were renting it was a tall order. Finally, 10 years ago, we adopted a rescue Glen of Imaal girl named Candy. From there on, ten best years of our lives followed. She was the sweetest little dog, and our lives including work and holidays revolved around her. During that time, we experienced first hand how important it is to have someone you trust to look after your dog during holiday time, and also remember how hard it was for us to find one. Fast forward today, and while unfortunately our Candy has recently crossed the rainbow bridge, we still love all doggies- big and small, and would love to be able to look after your family member, from time to time, and give them the best boarding experience that we can.

What we can offer: We currently live in an apartment that we own. While we don’t have a back garden, we live around foothills of the Dublin Mountains, and the closest manicured patch of grass is literally 20 steps away from our doors. So, weather your furry friend loves long walks in nature with some ball play thrown in to mix it up, or if all they need is a few pitter-patters around the corner couple of times a day- we are happy to oblige and provide just the right balance of outdoors fun and indoors cuddles and snoozes (couch is not off the limits, if that’s what your pet prefers). While both of us are working full time, we have flexibility to work from home, hence there’s always someone who’ll be at home. Also in case of any health emergencies- we both have a car and live just minutes away from several different veterinary services, including UCD pet hospital.
