About John

Large Dog Care Service in Bunclody, Wexford 🐾

🐾 Welcome!
I provide an exceptional and personalized service, caring for your dog as my own. This is not a job to me—dogs are most of my life. From Monday to Friday, minding dogs is all I do, meaning your dog will have my undivided attention throughout the day. My priority is to ensure your dog’s happiness, comfort, and well-being during their stay. From cuddles to enrichment activities, I tailor every part of their experience to fit their individual needs, ensuring they feel loved, engaged, and part of my home pack.

🐾 About Me:
I live in a spacious dormer bungalow just outside Bunclody, Co. Wexford, about 1 hour 20 minutes from Dublin. My home has a secure, fully enclosed, dog-friendly 0.5-acre garden, where dogs can safely roam and play, fully supervised of course.

I currently share my home with my two wonderful other dogs: Ashah, a 15-year-old Weimaraner, and Rebel, a 12-year-old German Shepherd. They are both gentle and accustomed to having other dogs around, and they’ve proven to be great teachers and role models. Recently, I lost my younger German Shepherd, Boo, at the age of 5. His absence is deeply felt, but my love for dogs drives me to care for others.

🐾 My Approach:
Every dog that stays with me is treated like one of my own—given all the care, attention, and love they deserve. They’ll have access to every comfort, including dog beds, toys, and, for those who prefer extra coziness, a human bed! I’m committed to providing a nurturing, enriching environment where your dog will be happy and thrive.

I specialise in caring for larger breeds, although I welcome dogs of all sizes. No dog is ever too big for me. I’m experienced in administering medications, including injections, and can cater to most specific dietary requirements.

🐾 Boarding:
If your dog needs a cozy place to stay, I offer boarding in my spacious home. Your furry friend will have full access to my house, including a private bedroom if crating is needed, and the large garden where they can run and play. I also have a dedicated “Dog Room” with comfy furniture and space for them to relax.

Daycare: Includes plenty of exercise and enrichment activities.

Pick-Up & Drop-Off: Available upon request, ensuring convenience and a smooth experience.

🐾 Enrichment & Nutrition:
Mental stimulation is just as important as physical exercise, so I provide enrichment activities throughout the day. From hide-and-seek with toys to treat-dispensing puzzles, I ensure your dog is constantly engaged and entertained. Depending on your dog’s breed and energy levels, I set up 2-3 enrichment games each day, such as food-hidden challenges or scatter feeding.

🐾 Meet & Greet:
I understand the importance of feeling comfortable with where your dog will be staying, and I have no issues with you visiting my home beforehand. If you’d like to meet me and see the environment your dog will be in, I’m more than happy to arrange a visit at a time that suits you. It’s important that both you and your dog feel at ease before any stay.

Inhouse Review
Hey there, future pawtential buddy! I’m Ashah, the top dog around here, and let me tell you—you’re in for a treat (literally!). Mornings start with scheduled belly rubs, followed by tasty breakfasts. Then we head outside for morning pawtrol and sniffspections. After that, it’s pawsome running, sniffing, and rolling around in the grass. I’ll get to show you all my favorite spots! When we’re back, it’s game time. You’re talking to the hide-and-seek champion here. Then there are cozy couches and blankets, but if you’re anything like me, you’ll probably end up napping on John’s bed—it’s fur-real comfy.

Later, we head outside for evening pawtrol and sniffspections. After, we can nap by the fire, or if you just want some alone time after a long day, we’ve got a special bed for that too.

We play games that’ll keep your tail wagging all day, and the belly rubs never stop! You’ll feel right at home in no time—I’ll make sure of it. Part of the family, part of the pack. With lots of love, treats, and cuddles. Can’t wait to show you around—paws crossed you join us soon! Sleepovers here are the best, Woof.🐾

John was extremely accommodating for a very last minute request that we had. He was very communicative and sent us plenty of updates during Mr. Pickles stay which meant a lot to us. It's obvious that John has a genuine love for animals and I would not hesitate to recommend him to anyone looking for a minder. Ashah & Rebel were also amazing hosts and really welcomed Mr. Pickles into their home with open paws 🐾🥰

We had a lovely experience with John! He was very gracious and happy to meet us for a walkthrough before the first boarding session. He did a great job caring for our beloved young shepherd, including giving him daily medication and a combination of wet and dry food. We received daily updates and pictures while he was there, and that made all the difference! Our boy was clearly content and relaxed the whole time. I couldn’t be happier with the experience :)
