Dog Meet & Greet

Because first impressions matter — especially for paws and whiskers.

Before welcoming any new guest into our care, we like to arrange a Meet & Greet. Every animal has their own history, personality, and needs, and this first introduction helps us understand them better while ensuring their comfort and safety.

At ORLAGH’S, we believe every pet deserves to be understood before being accommodated. A proper introduction ensures harmony, trust, and the very best care from the very beginning.

What to expect

  • Safety first — we meet both of your pets beforehand to assess behaviour, triggers and temperament
  • Tailored care — we adapt routines, play and handling to your pet
  • Building trust — a calm, neutral setting makes the transition into our care smoother
  • Owner partnership — a chance to chat about your pet’s background and ask questions
