About Maura

My name is Maura. I live in Broomfield, Midleton and I love dogs! I have boarded a number of dogs through Irish Guide Dogs over the past few years ranging in age from 12 months to 10 years - which has given me great joy! My house was assessed by Irish Guide Dogs before I was accepted for taking responsibility for the care of these very special dogs. As a child we always had a dog at home.

I have a medium sized enclosed garden and plenty space indoors for your dog to chill out and relax. Some dogs are happy to sleep in the kitchen others are happier at the end of the stairs - it depends what they are used to. I don’t have a dog at the moment and my preference is to board one dog at a time so your dog gets all the attention and has the best possible experience in your absence.

I am happy to accommodate the individual needs of your dog so they have a home from home experience.  

I am not a fan of dogs in the bedroom so my preference is for dogs to be crate trained / or if they can sleep in the kitchen alone at night we will all be happier :)

I will be happy to take your dog for walks on the beach or in the local area - there is an area close-by (a few local fields that is used by other dog owners) where your dog can enjoy a run around off the lead in a supervised space and play with other dogs from the area - if that is what they enjoy :) whatever is your preference and what your dog is most comfortable with.

 I work from home on a full time basis so your dog will always have the security of having me around.

My dog stayed with Maura for 14 days, a home away from home. He was so well looked after and I got great updates. Highly recommended.

Maura looked after Rocco for 30 days when our family went on holidays. I was anxious to leave my 10 month old puppy because he is a reactive and nervous dog and doesn’t like to be alone. Maura made every effort to adjust to his needs. She is a very pleasant and bubbly lady who treated Rocco like her own. She is very flexible with drop off and collection time. She gave me a space in her freezer for Rocco’s food as he is picky eater and doesn’t eat nuts. Her beautiful home is very clean. She follows routine and most of all she communicates very well. Although Rocco was happy to be reunited with us recently, thought it was funny to see him sad for few days as he was missing Maura😂

Thank you Maura for putting up with my spoiled brat 🐶 know that I appreciate all your efforts.
