Frequently asked

Questions from Manoel Island owners

Is the Manoel Island perimeter off-lead friendly?
Yes, in practice. The perimeter path is wide, flat, and traffic-free, and well-trained dogs are routinely walked off-lead here in the early morning and late afternoon.
How long is the perimeter walk?
About 3-4 km. It is one of the few proper long walks accessible from the inner harbour without driving, which makes it a sitter favourite.
Are sitters comfortable with the bridge crossing?
Yes. Many sitters cross the bridge from Gżira routinely, both for their own Manoel walks and for bookings inside the fort area.
How do sitters handle the summer heat in Manoel Island?
By moving the day around it. Walks go early in the morning and again after sunset, pavements get checked with a hand before a dog is taken out on them, and the middle of the day is for shade, water and quiet indoors. Agree the timings with your Valletta sitter when you book, and say so if your dog is a flat-faced breed or an older one that struggles in the heat.
What do I need to have in order before booking in Manoel Island?
Your dog should be microchipped and on the national register, which is required in Malta under the Electronic Identification of Dogs Regulations. Beyond that, give your Manoel Island sitter the vet you use, the feeding routine, and a note of how your dog behaves with other dogs on a narrow street, which comes up more in Valletta than in most places.
What does Petme cover in Manoel Island?
Verified pet sitters offering boarding, in-home sitting, drop-in visits and dog walks across Manoel Island. Every booking includes €20,000 Protection Plan at no extra cost.
Is there a booking fee?
No. Petme charges 0% to pet owners. The rate on the sitter's profile is exactly what you pay at checkout.
