Energetic, experienced, genuine caring petsitter :)
Wilhelmina was looking after our two cats over two weeks and was super reliable and appreciated by our cats. Luckily, we had the chance to meet her before the sit and could show her around. She cleaned after her sit so it was nice to come back. We can highly recommend her, everything was really smooth.

Pet-loving couple looking for new adventures with the best company: animals =)
Danco was a delightful and expert pet and house sitter. We had excellent communication before and after the sitting, and the dogs were wonderfully cared for, as was the house! Thank you so much!

Avril is a very nice person, who gave me great reports on my Kismet, looking after him very well. She left the house sparkling, and a wonderful bouquet of flowers . Thanks Avril, I hope you enjoyed your stay.

Responsible and caring - an animal lover.
Patricia was a great house and pet sitter. She sent us photos of our pets hanging out, the dog got to her grooming appointments, and got to visit with the dogs of some of our friends; the cats seemed happy and relaxed. We will be happy to have her sit again.

I'm delighted with every aspect of Margaret's care of my 8month old cockerpoo, Molly and my home. She sent lots of great photos of Molly when they were out and about. I felt at ease knowing Margaret was looking after Molly and my home while I was away. She left the place spotless, even emptied the bin and stripped the bed, amazing!. Thank you Margaret. I'd love to have you back!!. Warmly Deirdre

Friendly, reliable and non-smoking married couple who love animals and travel
Mike and Enya were amazing house and pet sitters. This his is in adddition to them being a wonderful and thoughtful couple. They kept in regular contact with daily messages of their adventures with Toby. We returned to a happy dog and a spotless house. They even received the seal of approval from our town with many of our neighbors complimenting us on our friends. We hope they can sit for us again

Hugh and Melissa - Expereinced House Sitters
Hugh and Melissa looked after my two high-energy doggies when I was gone far overseas and I always felt very comfortable and secure knowing the girls were in good hands. They provided me with daily updates, pictures, and my dogs were happy and knackered when I came back home. Would definitely recommend them for any dog sitting needs, including multiple dogs. 😊

A reliable, organized friend and carer for your beloved pets and for your home!
As ever, Andrea’s sit was the best. Everything runs so smoothly everytime. And Lottie and her have become besties. Above all, Andrea’s care of Lottie and my home are second to none. We look forward to having you back soon!

It was great to have Frank available to pet and house sit here again as the dogs and cat are so comfortable around him now. Dogs, cat and hens were all happy when I got home and everything neat in the house. I recommend Frank to anyone as a reassuring and kind pet sitter.

Kathleen & John are semi retired and would love to travel and either house sit o
Kathleen and John were a joy to have in the house looking after Maisie. She bonded with them very quickly and we were sent daily updates of her antics. We returned home to a happy dog and an immaculate house. They even swept the patio and watered the plants. They also left unexpected gifts😍. This was our first experience with Zeewoi and I have been singing their praises since.
Cung was a wonderful cat sitter and housesitter and we would happily invite him back again. He was excellent with our cats and sent plenty of photos, and also left the house impeccably clean. We had to come back a day early and so we got to spend some time with him which we enjoyed as well. 10 out of 10 recommend! 
I'm delighted to have found Lisa as a sitter and hope to have her back again! She was detail oriented and clearly cared about my cats' well being. She asked good questions about the cats' routines and needs and about the house to be sure she'd meet my expectations and have a comfortable and successful sit. She communicated very well before and throughout the sit and even though I was unreachable for much of the time I was confident everyone was in good hands. Lisa left the house in immaculate condition and the cats were relaxed and happy when I got home. What a delight!
Chris and Julia were our very first sitters and are the most perfect house/pet sitters anyone would ever want!!! Julia sent video/pictures of our fur babies everyday and we noticed early on that our animals were very relaxed and happy!! This made our trip so enjoyable and stress free knowing that our animals were safe and being spoiled and loved the whole time. They even trained our dog to sit while her leash was being attached and was able to pet and hold our cat that is somewhat nervous around strange people he doesn't know. When I got back from the trip, the house was very clean along with Julia/Chris had washed the bed sheets, bath towels, vacuumed, dusted etc., and even washed the pet bedding. They also left some SE Asia treats for us to try which so sweet of them. Definitely the perfect house sitters!!!
Stefany helped me out big time by stepping in when I asked. She's a local sitter and I wasnt' having any responses so I contacted her and she fit me into her schedule even during the holidays and right after another sit across the country. She took great care of my two cats and home and I very much appreciate it!
Kathryn was amazing. She helped me figure plans out after another sitter dropped out at the last minute and saved the day! My cat and fish were well taken care of, and she was super communicative when my tank had a problem child moment. Would definitely recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable, helpful, and caring sitter!!
Raquel was simply terrific! She and her husband, Miguel, had to fill in at the last minute for another sitter who had a death in her family. This meant that the length of the stay and sitting they had originally signed up for doubled. Completely undaunted, they did a GREAT job for us. Our cat and dog got lots of love and affection, and plenty of exercise, food, and rest. Our house and yard were cared for with equal conscientiousness. It was wonderful for us to be able to rely so completely on these super zeewoi. We recommend them 100 percent!
Catherine was a wonderful sitter for our 17 year old cat Zabba. She sent us pictures twice a day and kept us informed about Zabba’s daily activities. We came home to a clean home and would definitely recommend her as a pet/ house sitter. My only concern was that she doesn’t drive and with an older cat, I just prayed that Zabba didn’t need to go to the vet…. And he didn’t 🥰. We will ask her again for sure.
Danny and Jo did a great job caring for our 3 cats and fish AND lots of plants (and home of course) while we were out of town for 3 weeks. We came back to a very clean house, sheets, and towels all clean and folded and fresh sheets on the bed they were using. The plants were all alive too, which is a first for us (again, we have a lot of plants!). The cats were happy to see us and they were all accounted for (a past sitter lost a cat for a week - they escaped outside as a non-outside cat). Everything was in its place and looked great. We received regular updates (via text) with photos of the cats lounging about which was important for us. Danny asked good questions when they visited us before the sit, and when reviewing our pet/house sitting instructions. The only thing we noticed that was different was that our 2 young cats were a little lighter (not necessarily a bad thing) but we understand that being gone for that length of time can be stressful on our furry family, which almost always affects their eating habits. All in all, we would definitely have them again!
If Cung ever applies to your post for a house or pet sit, I strongly encourage you to jump at the offer. You will not be disappointed. Cung is among the top (if not the top) sitter I’ve ever had and I’ve been on this site for years. Primarily, Cung is very organized. In the weeks and days leading up to the sit, Cung kept me abreast of his plans and status. I felt very comfortable in the days leading up to the sit because I knew the plan we made to exchange the keys and walk him through the instructions would work as planned. Second, Cung really cares. When he got to my apartment after what I assume was a long day of traveling, I explained the care instructions and he was very attentive and cared about the details - asking very specific questions on how to care for my cat and apartment. I had some pretty specific rules about how to feed my cat and take care of him and Cung followed those exactly. Third, Cung makes you feel comfortable while you are away. I got daily or twice daily updates about my cat. I got pictures which made me feel like my cat was having a good time. My cat came out within an hour of me being away - very fast for my cat as he is shy. Cung must have a calming energy towards animals. Cung was also very responsive when I reached out first - replying within 5 minutes. I really appreciated that. My cat threw up at one point and Cung answered all of my questions to assess whether my cat was sick or had just eaten too fast. Fourth, Cung will take good care of your apartment/house. I came back to a SPOTLESS apartment. The sheets were washed and folded on my bed. The towels were washed. The apartment had been vacuumed. The kitchen was clean. The dishwasher had been run. Everything was in its place when I returned. Honestly, cleaner than when I left it which is difficult since I am a very clean person. Cung also respects your property. I have an extensive computer setup that he used for work and he was very respectful of that equipment. He asked if he could use it beforehand, which was incredibly polite since he could have used it and I wouldn’t have known. In sum. You need to jump at the opportunity if Cung offers to sit for you. I came home to a very happy cat. Hope he will sit for me again sometime!
Rick and Sally are marvelous cat sitters and we would gladly have them back anytime. We highly recommend them to any and all pet owners. They arrived when they said they would and were ready to go when we returned, making sure our cats were present before departing. Our home was left spotless, undoubtedly better than we left it for them. We can't urge you enough to engage them if you can!
Is it better to board cats or leave at home?
Veterinarians advising to leave cats at home with a pet sitter who will stay overnight in your home, boarding is not recommended for cats as they are stressed in a new environment, you can find a sitter who will care for your cats and home for free at Zeewoi.
How much should you pay someone to watch your cat?
At least $20 per visit, per overnight watching in your home, otherwise you can find a free sitter at Zeewoi.
What do people do with their cats when they go on vacation?
Inviting a cat sitter to your home, boarding the cat with a local business, asking a friend, family or neighbour to feed and check the well-being. The most efficient way to leave your cat during your vacation is with Zeewoi cat sitters for free, in this way, you will save cat sitting costs and make vacation not only for you but also for your cat sitter!
I can highly recommend Dotties Doghouse! My dog spent a week there and had the best care by a woman who understands and loves dogs, as if they were all her own. Dottie is also the best groomer I have come across. Exceptional! Cannot speak highly enough of the professionalism!!
Great job one of the best can easily be trusted no problem left my 2 dog there for 21 days with no problem delighted and highly highly recommend
Two exhausted ladies after a fantastic stay at Dottie’s Doghouse. They can’t wait for their next visit! Fantastic set up, fantastic service and Dot is a lovely person ❤️
Please don’t be fooled by the cosy looking pictures on this site, they must be very old.. i was there last week and it looks nothing like this now, in fact the place was so damp inside that the floor was slippery, there was no sign of any warm fire or blankets on chairs. I booked my dogs in here a few months ago after looking at the pictures and when I saw the state of the place I felt sick leaving my animals, Dot told me that she would be in the Kennells at 7 to feed my dogs and that she would light the range and sit in there and play with them..as it happened I got someone to go straight back and collect them only to find the place deserted, this was at 6.15pm, We called Dot and she said she was on her way to galway and said she would be back at 9.30 the next morning!!!! Our deposit of €100 was taken plus €50 for the night our dogs were left on their own, disgraceful! I also find it strange that the owner, Dot Quin Byrne, has reviewed her own business and given it five stars, see below ....
Thank you so much for looking after Bailey and Dolly so well. You have them looking 1st class after their pampering and they're both in great form here. We would have no hesitation in recommending you to anyone looking for their hairy babies to be taken good care off while they're away on holiday etc.. Thank you once again 👍🐕 …
Absolutely fantastic kennels. If I could give it 10 stars I would. I left my little dog with Dottie for a long term stay and he was so happy and so well looked after. Dottie sent me regular updates of him strutting around like he owned the place. The play area is an absolutely brilliant idea and more like a holiday resort for dogs than a kennels. Dottie is a lovely lovely person who has a genuine love for the dogs in her care and she also has a fantastic way with them. My Guy absolutely adored her. Having tried many kennels in the past Dottie’s Doghouse is on a different level and I would never leave my dogs anywhere else ever again. Thank you Dottie and all your team for providing such a wonderful service.
Fantastic boarding and grooming, Dottie is so great with them. Dogs come home tired, clean and most importantly really really happy! We have used other boarding places before but now won't go anywhere else. See you again in a few weeks Dottie! 😁 🐕🦺🐕 …
My dog Penny had a great time in dottie's dog house, thanks to Dottie and her wonderful staff I would highly recommend there services so pleasant and welcoming, you can also have your dog groomed. Will definitely be using there services again. Thanks again
We couldn't recommend Dottie's Doghouse any higher than 5 stars but if we could then we would! Dottie looked after Bailey the doggie and Biscuit the cat so well they hardly wanted to come home again 😉 a great set up and a safe environment and great peace of mind to know they're been so well looked after when you're away. Very reasonable rates for the Doggie and Cat Hotel as i call it. Would recommend to anyone without hesitation. 🐕 🐈 👍
Was very apprehensive leaving Marley as he's had a bad start in life and is very much a "mummy's boy" but I needn't of worried, Dot was brilliant with him and also made me feel very much at ease, I knew he'd be safe & very well looked after - which he was. He was even running around with other dogs, which was before then unheard of. Highly recommend. Will definitely be returning.
A 5 star rating for this super friendly and accommodating boarding and daycare facility for dogs. Our dog loves it and pulls the arm off me to get inside, which is a major sign that he feels safe and cared for there. Here is a photo of Senan not wanting to leave, one summer evening after collecting him. Thank you Fiona and Paul ☺️
Rupert our Bichpoo resided in Happy Tails for 1st week July 24. It was spotless, well run, safe & secure. Fiona & Paul take great care of the animals in their care. Wishing you many more years in business. Regards Elaine
Fiona &Paul are amazing, they really give it there all with the pets they have in their care , my puppy Sammy has been going their now the last few months & he loves it , plenty off areas for them too run & play , and their over night kennels are great , when I seen where Sammy was sleeping etc I couldn't believe my eyes , so clean ,cosy that I was thinking I'd nearly book myself in!! Good job ye guys 👍 and thank ye again 😀
Barney is a Rescue Dog who came into my life 6 years ago , and has become my soul mate . He knows my moods and when I need a cuddle. He is Family and not a pet, and his well being is of the utmost importance so when it came to finding a Boarding Kennels I applied the same criteria that I would in choosing an Hotel for my wife and myself. A great deal of research and time went into sourcing a suitable premises that Barney would feel safe secure and loved , Happy Tails did just that. We took him to Fiona for a Day Care Doggy Day and we knew at once that Fiona ( and Paul) were "Doggie People" Their lives revolved around their own dogs and their Guests exactly what i wanted. Barney loves them and they look after him in the same caring way that I do. The Kennels are superb and the play areas enormous , and Barney being a fussy eater gets his rashers and sausages mixed with his feed .With the new addition of The Doggie Taxi it means that Barney can be collected and returned in comfort and safety. You will find it difficult to find better . Barney says Thank you but more so so do I s He is my Life and I gladly entrust him to Fiona,
Fiona and Paul are absolutely amazing. We are so happy to have somewhere that our dogs love going, where they're well treated and happy. Fiona caters for dietary needs, medication, etc, so no matter what our dogs need during any given stay, we know they're being so well looked after. Happy Tails is the best boarding and daycare facility in the midlands, if not the country. Our dogs get so excited to see Fiona and Paul, and they even have their own favourite spot to sleep. Sam has decided he's the boss when he's there and Fiona keeps us updated on all the shenanigans they get up to. We'd be lost without Happy Tails.
Pretty good experience. They were very kind and took good care of our dog! Great place!
Happy Tails boarding kennels does exactly what it says on the tin...... happy dogs! It’s wonderfully run by the friendly Fiona and Paul who so obviously care about each and every dog in their care . The amount of space for the dogs to run free is fantastic and the accommodation is 5 star quality, spacious, clean and comfortable. I never worry about Barney when I go on holidays, he has a wonderful time in Happy Tails.
Lovely set up. Fiona is so Nice i took to her straight away.. She was happy to let us come out and have a look at where our pets will be staying before we booked them in. Not all of the places we were looking at,were so acommadating.
Absolutely incredible. Fiona and Paul are amazing. Our dogs love it there and it gives us massive peace of mind knowing their safe and happy when we’re away. Wouldn’t leave them with anyone else.
Happy Tails is a home away from home. Absolutely recommend it. Fiona is lovely to deal with,and to top it all off my dogs came home cleaner than they have ever been!! Didn't last long too long tho 😂 …
Just recently introduced my dog to Kloud 9 Doggy Day Care. They were very good at making sure she was comfortable with the other dogs. I was able to book a trial session and then a short session. The dogs all looked happy and content with some of them sunning themselves on perches in the rare Irish sun.
My dog Cherry loves going to Kloudz, she runs in tail wagging. Amazing, efficient staff. I can go on holidays happy that she is well looked after, also I receive videos and updates, which are brilliant to watch. Very clean and a lovely atmosphere in doggie day and night care, staff on dog duty all night incase dogs get lonely. 100 percent recommend, I wouldn't send my furry friend anywhere else. Keep up the fantastic work Kloudz. I shall put photos up on site of Cherry going on hwr holidays to Kloudz
Excellent service for all the fur babies needs. Pick up and drop off services for big and small dogs , a walking service a grooming service, overnight dog hotel or home stays.. highly recommend. Robbie had my daughters 2 dogs for homestay while we were all away for her wedding. They came back happy and content. Excellent service. Happy dogs. Happy humans. 🐾
My boy Buster absolutely loves his days out at Kloud 9 Dogz. He can't get out of the car and into them quick enough! And I get to go to work knowing he's happy, and very well looked after. Great peace of mind for me, and he doesn't have to spend a whole day cooped up indoors. Fantastic service ⭐️🐶😊
The team at Kloud 9 are fantastic with our dogs Layla and Toby. They really care about the dogs and making sure that they are happy. We have used their daycare service, home boarding and most recently their dog hotel. It was great to receive updates and photos of them after their stay. I would highly recommend Kloud 9 and the team! 👍
Paranoid mom is an understatement when it comes to me. Shadow was never socialised due to lockdown. Then one day while on a walk, a pitbull made his way out his yard and came straight to attack Shadow, I managed to protect him and got attacked instead while holding Shadow tightly in my arms. Since then, Shadow hates other dogs and goes crazy when he sees another dog... I sought out Kloud 9 Dogz because of an appointment I had to be at and no one was home to care for him. Shadow has never been left to stay with anyone outside our family and home. I cannot describe how afraid I was to leave him. Not sure how he would react to other dogs and also having to stay with strangers... Well, I am besides myself with gratitude on how amazing the staff have been and was so surprised to see how well Shadow was slowly but surely warming up to all the dogs around him. The staff are friendly, patient and not just with the dogs, but with the overprotective humans too 😉 They certainly know what they are doing and care very much about all the furbabies in their care! Thank you Rebecca, Robbie and all the amazing staff who took such good care of my precious boy.
We hate leaving our dog but in those times we absolutely have to - we drop him to Kloud 9 - our wee dog adores going there and playing with other dogs! All the staff are fantastic and our dog is well cared for and we know he is in good hands! Would recommend Kloud 9 to all dog owners!
Thanks so much to the team at Kloud 9 Dogz. Charlee really enjoyed another vacation at the doggy hotel. Thanks again for all the photo updates during her stay. Fantastic service for our little lady.
We were nervous leaving Flossie for a first night away but she was fine (of course) but so we’re we because of helpful updates to reassure us. Kloud9 is a great place with people who care about your dog. There is constant supervision in the play area and this means the dogs are safe interacting with each other. Many Thanks to all the staff, we will be back. 😀
Honey seems to love her time at Kloud9. Well staffed and dogs are well looked after. Nice to have larger covered in area for when raining though. But Honey loves it no matter and is having a snooze after her fun day
Excellent kennels!! Couldn’t recommend Liz higher! This was our second year using the kennels and Liz went out of her way to accommodate us last year. Both dogs have left happy and well looked after on both occasions 🐕 …
We had our Barney and Pedro stay with Liz for the first time over the weekend and I am really happy. They were really well looked after and Liz was really responsive to any message I sent while they stayed. I'm a very anxious dog mam and she really put me at ease. Also brilliant value for money. Thanks Liz.
Dropped my 2 dogs off perfect health, in fact they were at the vets the day before for a checkup, perfect health, picked them up after 7 days and were very sick, took them to the vet straight away and Both dogs had respiratory infections, they claim the Kennels are heated but I don't think so, also if the dogs were monitored in the least it would have been obvious they were sick, coughing, sneezing, not eating, not active. I never write bad reviews about anything but I feel compelled to warn others that this is not safe for your animals. Avoid if you care for your dogs/cats.
My 10 month old pup Chida had a weekend here in august. I was nervous letting her off because she has a lot of separation anxiety but Liz did a great job and Chida came back with her tail wagging. I would recommend liz to anyone looking for a kennel.
Good rates. My dog was looked after well, she came back same as we left her. Cant say the same about her soft toys 😄 …
We started using Shoemaker Kennels about 18 months ago. At first, we wondered if our rescue dog would take to the new environment, but our fears were unfounded - he LOVES going to 'Dog Hotel', as we humans call it. He loves going there, and he loves when we collect him, which is as it should be, so it's a it's a win-win situation for everyone. Liz and all her staff are professional, respectful of each dog's individual personality, and 110% trustworthy. We highly recommend Shoemaker Kennels.
They were able to take in my cat Tommy at short notice. Friendly staff, cheap prices and his apartment conditions were very nice.
We stopped leaving our 2 dogs Dolly and Minnie there.. the last couple of times we left then there they came back stinging to the high heavens, I can't describe it other than pure musty or dirty bedding where they must have been laying. Luckily we found Lough Bo kennels where I can't say enough of how highly I recommend them, more expensive than Shoemaker but you get what you pay for and so worth it knowing my dogs are being looked after by real animal lovers and not people are are only in it for the money.
I left my Husky only for 2 days (Thanks God were only 2) because when i picked up the Dog was all wet and full of pee and very smelly,same as his bed. The dog had a very yellow urine as he didn't drink for a while. The lady at the entrance was very rude and not friendly with the Dog,she just pulled the dog till the cage. Not recommended at all. This is a Dogs prison!!!
Lovely local kennels, very helpful staff..our dog (14yrs) was very relaxed upon collection after 1 week.
Yoda absolutely loves Jessica- he gets totally spoilt every time he stays with her- the biggest problem we have is getting him to come home with us after a stay.He has stayed with Jessica five times now and each time the level of care has been amazing. She keeps us updated on a daily basis with pictures and videos of his daily walks and exploits. Nothing is a problem for her, her kindness to and care for Yoda is beyond measure. He is already looking forward to his next stay.
My dog Ciara loves going to Jessica for boarding or the occasional day care. It is so important to me that I can relax and know that my dog is happy and well cared for. Jessica has a natural connection with dogs and they know that they are loved and respected. I really recommend Jessica
Jessica is so good with our dog Bailey and puts our minds at rest when Bailey stays with her she sends us updates with photos and videos which is brilliant. Bailey is a shy quiet dog but loves Jessica so that says it all for us 🥰 we would highly recommend her. …
My 2 dogs Mia and Jack love to see Jessica coming to stay over , she has great patience with Jack who has to be annoying, when trying to see something on TV as he barks non stop at TV 😃😁 I find Jessica very helpful and can take Mia and Jack when I ask her , we love Jessica …
Hi Jessica looking for my dog minded four days a month please
