About Solen

Feathers&furries small pet minding and dog walking

Hi, my name is Solen. I am 20 years old and an avid animal lover! I'm obsessed with all kinds of animals, big and small. I am based in Stillorgan, Dublin.

I offer small pet boarding or visits, cat or dog house visits and dog walking. Unfortunately I can not board dogs in my home at the moment.

I have a level 5 qualification in Animal care from DFEI, where I studied subjects such as animal behaviour, welfare and small animal husbandry. I am currently studying veterinary nursing in UCD. 

I have experience with a wide range of different small pets such as ferrets, rabbits, mice, rats, hamsters, birds, guinea pigs and more! I began minding small animals in my home 6 years ago after having grown up in an animal- filled home. My bedroom has been like a mini zoo for the past few years, as i’ve owned hamsters, mice, budgies, geckos, fish, guinea pigs and a ferret. The day I turned 16, I handed in my application forms to the DSPCA in Rathfarnham and was accepted as a volunteer. I began volunteering weekly and gained more experience with different types of animals.

Home visits (cats, small pets, dogs): I can also provide visits for small animals or cats around the Stillorgan/ Sandyford/ Leopardstown area, or places on the Luas green line. During these I can feed, clean and give company to your beloved animal.  

Home boarding (rabbits, guinea pigs, ferrets, etc):I would love to provide a home away from home for your small pet. I treat all my small guests as if they are my own pets, so that they can enjoy their holiday and owners don't have to worry about them. I can administer oral medication if needed. I can also cut the nails of guinea pigs or ferrets if requested. I keep all enclosures clean and sanitized and can provide fresh fruits and veggies to pets that need them.

I usually ask that owners bring their own enclosure however I may be able to provide an enclosure depending on the animal, (enclosure for rabbits or guinea pigs pictured above).

I can spend a lot of time with your pet. I'll happily provide one on one attention and lots of playtime. I'm also happy to provide photos and updates during the stay. 

Thank you for considering me. Please feel free to message me for more info or if you have any questions, I'm happy to help!

Please note the price listed is for animals such as ferrets, rabbits and chinchillas. Please message me about your specific animal :)

Solen, was great. She looked after the kittens really well. I was happy leaving them knowing they were in safe hands.

Highly recommended.
