About Us

We are Helen and Rick Jones, we live in Crossnacreevy (near Roselawn cemetery) just outside Belfast in Northern Ireland, where we have grown up and lived all our lives.

At Dogzone NI we aim to offer a loving environment for your dog with a personal and caring touch as opposed to kennels. Your dog is our top priority and we treat them accordingly ensuring they enjoy their stay with us.

Our family have always been animal lovers. When I was growing up we always had a dog and other animals about, as I do now, who have always been treated just like one of the family. At the moment we have an array of animals including: Lizards, a snake, African grey parrots, pigs, goats, chickens, four Shih-Tzus, a Blue Great Dane and a young Tibetan Mastiff – so any dog that we mind just fits in and they all have a great time together!

Why did I become a Pet Sitter? I became involved in Pet Sitting because we needed our dog Harley minded and I thought Home Boarding was such a good idea, I knew it would be good to get involved. We have had a lot of fun with the dogs that come to stay – and the rest is history nine years later!! It is definitely the only way pets should be looked after when their owners have to go away for a short or long period.

All the dogs are given the home comforts that they are used to. You will be able to see this for yourself when you come for a visit to us before the petsit begins. We have found that a lot of our business are repeat customers, as the dogs go home happy after clearly having enjoyed their holiday! We will make sure that your dog will be given lots of exercise and be well loved by all the family while they are in the care of Dogzone NI.

We also offer doggy day care – which is ideal for busy working owners to break up the week for their pup!

We can pamper your pooch too when they stay with us, as my husband Rick can offer a full grooming service.

We, of course have done all the groundwork and are proud of our high standards and criteria. We have been in the pet sitting industry now for 9 years and have learnt many skills and have much experience that no other pet service can offer. We are fully licensed, registered and insured.
