I’ve taken care of dogs since I was 10, when my friend went on holidays with her family I cycled 6km to her house to walk and feed her dogs. I am an experienced dog-sitter, having taken care of many wonderful doggies! My family got our Sandy, a labradoodle who is the light of our lives 8 years ago. Training, walking and playing with her are some of my favourite things to do on the weekends I visit home.

I work full-time as a civil servant, but my hours are flexible. I am available every evening after 5pm and enjoy long walks. My weekends are typically quiet so I am available full-time from Friday evening until Monday morning.

I am respectful of other people’s spaces and will adhere to any requests as set out. Each dog will be given regular walks and I can provide transport to and from walking areas if needed.

I believe dogs need both physical and mental stimulation, twice daily at least. A walk in Salthill or Coole Park with a furry friend is my idea of bliss.

Let me know if your pet receives any special treatment or has any requirements I should know about. I am happy to travel within reasonable distance of Galway City and would love to meet you and your furry friend!
