My name is Jackie. Since I can remember I have been passionate about dogs. My goal was to always to have a job where I was caring for animals in some way, but I never dreamt I could create a successful business like dogs Exclusive, that I love so much.

When I started Dogs Exclusive with my husband in 2008 we were just looking friends and family’s dogs when they went away. I soon realised that I had the passion and determination and more importantly the love of dogs and everything about them, to make a business out of it. We also have the perfect premises with land and all the aspects of what I would want if I was to leave my dogs with somebody when I went away

Myself and Jackie work really hard everyday to help make Dogs Exclusive a successful business, but it doesn’t always feel like work!
There are aspects of what I do I love and would not consider it work for example
Seeing the excitement on the dogs faces as I pull up in their home driveway to collect them for the day is such a lovely picture that stays in my mind
I love to see them running in the field playing in the morning as I sip a coffee but most of all Jackie and I love doing this business together and between us
We want the very best for every dog in our care as we know our owners wouldn’t expect anything less.

Hello, my name is Catriona and I’m a fully qualified dog groomer.

I have loved animals all my life, especially dogs. I went to university to complete an animal studies course and even today I still thoroughly enjoy learning about dogs and their behaviour.

I enjoy turning a scruffy or dirty dog into a beautiful and clean one.

Working at Dogs Exclusive is fantastic and I love turning up for work every day. Seeing so many dogs playing and enjoying the fresh air always puts a smile on my face.

Hello, my names Ellie and my favourite breed of dog is a golden retriever which should tell you a lot about me already.

I’m a happy person who will get along with everyone and I love a cuddle on the sofa next to my fluffy friends here at daycare! While working in daycare I hope to gain a qualification in dog grooming and continue my career with dogs. I have been around dogs since I was a child, and have no intention of ever going without one.

I find great joy in watching the dogs in daycare form friendships and play with each other. The freedom of Dogs Exclusive daycare allows dogs to be their true self, no matter their energy levels, age, or breed. Everyone is loved from the moment they walk through our doors to the moment they leave, and that’s the best environment for a dog to be in!

Hi, I’m Aisling! I joined Dogs Exclusive when I had just turned 18 and it was the best career choice I’ve ever made! Everyday I wake up ready for work excited to greet all my four legged friends, that I get to see during my day!

My favourite breed of dog is a Labrador, their intelligence alongside their loyalty and high energy levels work great for me and my active lifestyle! While I have never owned a dog of my own, my love and passion for them provides me with the ability to care for every dog in daycare like they were my own!

My favourite part about this job is the quality of care that everybody puts into looking after man’s best friend. From splashing in pools during the summer to curling up on the sofa during the winter, this truly is a brilliant place to be, for dogs and humans alike!
