Give your dog a holiday!

Set in 15 acres of beautiful Kildare countryside, Blackberry Kennels and Cattery offers all your "special friend" could want and more. We provide heated indoor kennels, twice daily walks, safe and secure indoor and outdoor pet enclosures, and piped music throughout the kennels and cattery. Our CCTV system enables us to monitor all the cats and dogs throughout the day and night. Since opening in July 2003 we have been entrusted with the care of a large number of family pets and we are very pleased to welcome many back on regular visits.

At Blackberry Kennels and Cattery we continuously strive to provide a quality service to you the owners, and to the pets in our care.
