About dog boarding in Waterford
Waterford, Ireland's oldest city, offers a delightful range of walks and green spaces for pets and their owners. The Waterford Greenway, a 46-kilometre trail from the city to Dungarvan, runs through countryside, viaducts, and tunnels that active dogs take to right away. Closer to home, People's Park in the city centre provides a tranquil Victorian setting with mature trees and well-kept paths. The banks of the River Suir offer pleasant waterside strolls, and Kilbarry Nature Park is a peaceful wetland reserve for quieter outings.
Waterford's neighbourhoods each bring their own warmth to the city's pet-owning community. Along the Dunmore Road and in Ardkeen, families with dogs enjoy easy access to coastal walks and the Greenway trailhead. Ferrybank, sitting across the river in County Kilkenny, feels like part of the Waterford family, with its own parks and community spirit. Poleberry and Ballytruckle, close to the city centre, have a friendly, tight-knit feel where pet owners regularly cross paths. In Newtown and Grange, spacious housing estates with generous green areas give dogs plenty of room to play.
Petme brings Waterford pet owners a modern, secure way to find loving local sitters. With Protection Plan up to €20,000, you can feel confident leaving your pet in expert hands while you explore the Viking Triangle or travel further afield. From cat visits in Lismore Park to dog boarding in Ballybeg, Petme has Waterford covered.
