Ballymacool Town Park: about 20 acres on the Glenties Road, opened in 2009, with asphalt paths, gardens and a hill with views over the River Swilly. Letterkenny Town Park: the Bernard McGlinchey Town Park, the largest public park in the town until Ballymacool opened.

FAQ

Frequently asked questions

How much do dog minders charge for boarding in Letterkenny?
Home dog boarding with a minder in Letterkenny typically runs €25–€42 per night, depending on the size of your dog, how many dogs you have and the time of year. August bank holiday weekend and the Christmas window sit at the top of that range.
Is dog boarding on Petme a kennel?
No. Every Petme boarder is a dog minder hosting in their own home, from Glencar to Oldtown and across Letterkenny. Minders take a small number of dogs at a time, your dog sleeps indoors, and many let dogs on the sofa if that is what they are used to.
Kennels or a home dog minder in Letterkenny: which suits my dog?
A kennel suits a dog that is relaxed around many other dogs and a fixed routine. A home minder suits a dog that is nervous, older, on medication or used to company, because it stays in a house with one person's attention. Meeting the minder first is the easiest way to decide.
Can I meet the dog minder in Letterkenny first?
Yes. Most Irish owners arrange a free meet and greet through the Petme chat before the first stay. You drop in, your dog meets the minder, and you confirm everything in person.
Are dog minders in Letterkenny verified?
Yes. Every minder passes identity and background checks. The Protection Plan can contribute up to €20,000 toward eligible vet costs.
What if my dog needs medication during a stay?
Many Petme minders give pills, drops, or insulin on schedule. Mention any medical routine in the booking request and the minder confirms before accepting.
Is there a service fee for pet owners?
No. Petme charges pet owners 0% service fee. You only pay the minder's rate, and you earn automatic cashback on every completed stay.
