New dog care business opens its doors in North Wexford

Dog owners across North Wexford have a new reason to wag their tails with the launch of Follow My Lead….

Follow My Lead is a family-run dog boarding and day care business based in Camolin, County Wexford.

Founded by Pauline Leaney, Follow My Lead offers a professional, home-based alternative to traditional kennels, combining expert canine knowledge with a genuine passion for animal welfare. Set on more than an acre of fully secure gardens, the business provides dogs with a safe, relaxed environment where they can play, socialise and enjoy personalised care while their owners are away.

Pauline brings impressive credentials to her new venture. She has completed professional Palm to Paw certification along with recognised training through Dogs Trust, equipping her with specialist knowledge in canine behaviour, body language, safe handling techniques and conflict de-escalation between dogs. In addition, the business is fully insured through Pet Business Ireland, giving owners added confidence that their pets are in capable hands.

Among the flagship services offered by Follow My Lead is its dog boarding service, providing a true “home-from-home” experience. Rather than staying in kennels, dogs become part of the family environment, receiving individual attention, regular exercise, affection and indoor overnight accommodation.

The business also offers doggy day care, ideal for busy professionals or families who want their dogs to enjoy companionship, supervised play, exercise and structured rest throughout the day. Every dog receives attentive care in a secure and stimulating setting.

For owners who need a helping hand during the working week, Pauline provides a dog walking service tailored to each dog’s individual personality, age and energy levels. Whether it’s an energetic hour-long walk or a gentler stroll, every outing is designed around the dog’s wellbeing.

A particularly distinctive offering is the company’s Wedding & Chaperone Service. Recognising that many couples want their beloved dog to be part of their special day, Pauline transports, supervises and cares for dogs throughout the wedding, ensuring they can feature in photographs and key moments before being safely returned home or accommodated overnight if required.

Additional services include drop-in home visits for feeding, companionship and comfort breaks, making Follow My Lead a comprehensive solution for dog owners throughout North Wexford.

Speaking through the ethos of the business, Pauline’s mission is simple: to provide exceptional care whenever owners cannot be there themselves. Supported by her own friendly cocker spaniels, Arthur and Dougal, every visiting dog is welcomed into a calm, social environment where safety, comfort and happiness come first.

As demand for trusted pet care continues to grow across County Wexford, Follow My Lead is set to become a valuable addition to the local business community, offering peace of mind to owners and a caring second home for their four-legged companions.
