A lifetime with animals, dedicated to your dog

I'm Orla O'Shea, a Wicklow-based dog walker with a BSc in Animal Science and a lifelong passion for animals and dog care. I gained valuable hands-on experience working on Sheikh Mohammed bin Rashid Al Maktoum's thoroughbred stud, where I developed a deep understanding of animal welfare, care, and handling.

I hold a Dog First Aid certificate and have completed the IMDT Professional Accredited Training Course, specialising in modern, positive, reward-based dog training methods. With a lifetime of experience owning and caring for dogs, I bring together knowledge, practical skill, and genuine love for animals to provide trusted, personalised care and training for every dog I work with.

Dog Squad walkers out with two dogs on a sunlit woodland trail

Personal attention

I get to know every dog's personality, fears, and favourite games before the first walk.

Qualified & insured

BSc Animal Science, Dog First Aid certified, and IMDT Professional Accredited Training completed.

Small groups

Group walks are capped at six dogs so every pup gets attention and supervision.
