About Ciaran

I am an active person who loves all animals. My wife and I have two spaniels who are crazy but very friendly, and they are keen to make doggy friends of all breeds. During the day, I try to go to different places, including the mountains, forests, parks, and the beach. If you prefer, I can also do home boarding at yours or at my address.

Regarding specialisms, I can work around you. Whether you are looking for home sitting for half or full days, walks, or boarding, do drop a message. Also whether you would prefer the care of your loved one to be alone or if you are happy for other dogs (for socialisation). Boarding and house stays will include full services such as dog walks. Please be assured that your pet will be treated as my own. Also, the length and location will also be as matched to your preferences also. Whether you would like a full hour or half, and if you have preferences of location, I will do my best to accommodate. Being a driver, I can collect and take your pet somewhere for a good run, or stay local. I will do my best to match with your normal routine to ensure your pets are happy, safe and calm.

I have always grown up around dogs and have experience with all breeds from Jack russels to old English mastiffs. I have also worked with dogs who may be uncomfortable with other people or dogs, and can adapt my approach to each pet, including those that can be challenging such as recently rescued or those with trauma. I ask that dogs be vaccinated but if there are circumstances that mean this is in progress or not possible, do drop me a message.

I am currently a student but that means I am flexible and can work around your schedule. I can also organise for a drop off or pick up at a time to suit you. if you wanted a boarding at our house, we have a garden which is closed off meaning they can play all day. For full days, we can discuss any time I may be out of the house for lectures but I have few other commitments. These will be discussed before you book, although will be for a maximum of 2 hours, normally mid morning. Normal walks if you choose to board at ours are morning and evening, each around 45 minutes to an hour and not at the same place twice. If the morning is playing catch or having a run in the local fields, the afternoon will be in the forest for new and exciting smells.

Things I cannot do/not trained to do - administer medication, grooming (although I will give your dogs a wash if needed).

If you are looking for dog boarding at our house, we have a good size garden which is fully fenced off, with plenty of green and play space. Please be aware that we have 2 dogs, so if you would like to board at our house, this is something to keep in mind. However the sofas are dog friendly and with covers, we also have a large dog bed and covers throughout to ensure that he/she is comfortable. There will also be plenty of treats!! There are also toys which are always accessible.

If you have any questions please ask, and I look forward to hopefully meeting you.

I found Ciaran through a leaflet in the area and he treated my dog so well and sent me pictures of the non stop activities! I will definitely be using Ciaran again and cannot recommend him enough
