What makes a pet sitter book out in Dubai

Dubai is a city of frequent travellers. Expat families leave for the summer and for every school and Eid break, and they need someone they trust with their dog or cat. Sitters who keep boarding availability open across these weeks, send daily photo updates, and handle the summer heat with care earn the repeat bookings that fill a calendar.
