My name is Jenny and my best friend is Brid. Our lives are happily-centered around our dogs.
I am lucky to have a career from home as an artist specialising in book illustration, design, and editing.
I spent many years involved in dog rescue and also volunteered at The Humane Society in Seattle for 8 years. I'm from Ireland originally, but spent most of my years in Seattle. Brid is from Dublin.
Brid has extensive experience working with clients and their service dogs, walking, training, housesitting, and with a background in nursing.
We recognise the needs of every dog is different. Your dog's happiness, health, safety and comfort is our foremost priority. We ask that your dogs are fully vaccinated, NEUTERED (after 9 months), and don't have any aggression problems that we would be unaware of.
Your dog will never be left alone. If we are on an individual walk with another dog, someone entrusted will always be with your dog. We have a great fully enclosed private front and back gardens with key code entry only. There is a covered area and we keep the outside potty areas clean and sanitised. There's plenty of cosy areas to snuggle up in our home. We are very familiar with adhering to special dietary and medication needs. We are both experienced to give injections (typically insulin) and oral medications.
I don't take in a lot of dogs for overnight boarding because we know how important individual attention is, especially when they're away from their most familiar surroundings. If we schedule a 2nd, it will be approved by both owners. I will usually have another dog or two for daycare.
We live in Monkstown, Blackrock area of Dublin and it's just a few streets away from the beach and sea.
There is a large and fenced grassy community play area where the dogs are free and safe to run right behind our home. The neighbourhood is very dog friendly for walks.
We know all too well how difficult it can be to leave your dog for any period of time. We will check in with you with updates and photos.
We are the first people our friends and families entrust to watch their dogs when on holidays, or away for business. As a working artist, it's also the perfect way to supplement my income by caring for my/your fur babies while being able to stay home with ours.
Please don't hesitate to contact us for any additional questions. We will respond quickly.
We look forward to hearing from you!
Kindly,
Jenny

We were worried about leaving our two dogs for the first time for two weeks, but we need not have. Jenny was so helpful from the first meeting and immediately understood their little characters. We really appreciated the updates and photos while we were away and will definitely entrust our babies to her again next time we go away. Thanks a lot Jenny!
Jenny was amazing with our puppy Sadie! She sent regular updates and photos. Would highly recommend her. It was our first time leaving Sadie with someone outside the family and it went better than we could expect. We will definitely use Jenny again! Sharon
