Irish ferries:
"Pets are allowed to accompany passengers travelling with a car. Your pet must be taken on board the ship in your car and must remain either in your vehicle or in the kennels provided by Irish Ferries for the duration of the voyage. Your pet is not allowed on the passenger decks at any time.
The kennels are situated on the car deck, can be booked in advance and are free of charge.
If your pet is staying in your car for the duration of the journey there is no need to declare him/her before travel".
