Frequently Asked Questions
“Our dog always has the best time at Tralee Boarding Kennels and Cattery. Caroline is amazing, caring, and treat every pet like her own. We wouldn't trust anyone else with our furry friend!” The problem is trying to get them to come home with us lol.
Bryan and Paula Moore
Wouldn't send our girls anywhere else. They are safe, well cared for with loads of love and cuddles. Our Polly is an insulin dependent diabetic since a puppy. She has a strict medication schedule with her insulin injections and a strict meal plan. Nothing is a bother with Caroline and Polly's blood sugars are always on point on her return. I think Caroline's background in nursing really stands to her and shines through. Minnie, our other girl had a small medical issue while staying with Caroline. She phoned me straight away and organised vet care with regular updates to us on holidays. The care is second to none. I would trust her opinion even over our own vet.

Caroline is the essence of patients and care. Her love of animals can be seen from the first meet. Our dog, Archie was a rescue and very wearer of new people. The minute he met Caroline, he was waging his tail and went right up to her. Love at 1st sight. He loves his stays and we can enjoy our holidays knowing he is happy and safe. Caroline sends us updates and the only problem we have is he doesn't want to come home. He is a new dog with confidence and social skills. We can never thank her enough for all the dedicated care she has put into making our Archie a happy, care-free boy. 100% recommend Caroline and Tralee Boarding Kennels

I had to do a review after our nervous nelly Coco stayed in Tralee Boarding Kennels. I was a nervous wreck because I had ever only once sent my Coco to kennels and it was a horrible horrible experience for Coco and ourselves. We dropped him off at the gate and that was it. No update, no contact for 10 whole day. When we collected him, he was shivering, dirty and smelly. My heart was broken.*** Then came Tralee Boarding Kennels***. O My God what a different experience. Caroline invited us for a look around before his stay. Explained everything from what they would do with him while he was staying and his routine. When I explained our previous experience in another kennel, Caroline showed so much empathy and gave us plenty of reassurance. I was so stressed the morning I was leaving him but boy that was all for nothing. From the 1st day, even before we were on the plane, I got the most heart warming video of Coco on the couch with Caroline. Not a bother in him, like he always knew her. I was so relieved. From there the videos and updates just kept coming. I actually got to enjoy my family wedding. Caroline is the most genuine and caring person I have ever met. Now I know why she is always so busy. Her business is thriving because of her personality, care and compassion. When I arrived to collect Coco, WELL he was a new dog. Happy, confident and having fun, actually playing 😮. Not stuck in a kennel for 10 days but learning social skills. I have Coco booked in already for 2 more holidays because now, I know he will have a ball. I left a nervous, scared boy and came home to a blooming butterfly, changed in demeanor and confidence. I could not thank Caroline enough for the care and patience showed to Coco and ourselves. We will genuinely be lost without her. Sorry for the long review, but I am so so happy to have a confident, carefree Coco now. Thank you Thank you Thank you. See ye in May for the next adventure
