Michelle Dawson RVN
Michelle is a registered Qualified Veterinary Nurse who graduated with Distinctions from Athlone IT in 2011. She is originally from Swords. Michelle and Shónagh make the perfect caring team as she too is an avid animal lover in and out of work. Michelle’s animal family is made up of a Terrier Holly, a cat Frederick, a horse Buddy and two rats Togapi & Vulpix.
Bo Peep
My name is Bo Peep. Otherwise known as Bo Bo, “No Bad Dog”, or Peepsie. I am a Jack russell cross Pug. I have really bad separation anxiety. I don’t like to be left alone for any period of time and will become very stressed, very quickly. I am on a special diet and suffer from Colitis. That’s why my mammy Shónagh decided to start up Home Sweet Home holidays with Michelle. She knew there are other dogs out there like me who don’t like to be away from home.
Frederick
My name is Frederick. My mammy Michelle rescued me when I was a kitten and bottle-fed me for many sleepless weeks. I suffer from a lot of medical issues including one which makes it very difficult for me to adapt to new environments. Michelle started Home Sweet Home pet sitting for cats like me that wouldn’t cope very well in a cattery or kennel environment.
Why We Are Different
Both Shonagh and Michelle are hard working and dedicated to helping animals and their owners in whatever way they can. From working in a Veterinary Environment for almost 10 years, they both understand how difficult it can be for owners that have a pet with a medical issue to go away from their beloved pet for even a few days. To add to the worry, we know that most boarding kennels will not accept poorly pets and that is why we offer our caring services and do this in the environment that they will be most happy in – their home.
At HomeSweetHome we are experienced, qualified, registered veterinary nurses that care for your pet in the comfort of it’s own home while you are away.
