How much does a pet sitter cost?

The cost of pet sitting varies depending on the pet sitter, the services offered and the length of time needed. Generally speaking, pet sitters charge an hourly rate ranging from $8-$25 for regular pet care and for shorter day-time pet sitting sessions. Overnight pet care costs between $50 - $75 per night, usually with a 4-5 hour minimum required. Pet owners should also factor in possible additional fees including pet transport or walks/playtime in addition to the pet sitting service fee. It is always best to ask potential pet sitters directly about their rates before booking any pet care services.

Who needs a pet sitter?

Pet owners, who cannot give time to their pets, need a pet sitter to take care of their pets. Pet sitters are required when a pet owner travels and cannot take their pet to the boarding kennel due to health concerns. Pet sitters usually visit the pet owner's house and look after their pets. The pet sitters also feed pets and clean litter. Some of the pet sitters give medications to pets.
