Your pet sleeps in its own bed in Abu Dhabi

House sitting on Petme in Abu Dhabi typically runs AED 100 to AED 250 per night, depending on the number of pets and how much house care you want on top. Petme charges 0% owner commission, so the rate you agree with your sitter is the full price.

Feeding and fresh water on your schedule, walks at the normal times around the Corniche promenade or Umm Al Emarat Park, an eye on the AC and the lights, plant watering and mail collection on request, and photo updates. Anything extra is scoped at the meet-and-greet before you book.

Government and corporate leave sets the calendar in Abu Dhabi: the two Eid holidays, National Day on 2 December, and the July to August school break, when families fly out for the whole summer. The Yas Island event season from November to April adds shorter weekend trips on top. Those windows fill first, so message sitters a few weeks out for a long trip. A weekend stay can usually be arranged in a couple of days.

Al Reem and Saadiyat are island tower addresses with a security desk and a visitor pass at the barrier. Khalifa City, Al Raha and Al Reef are villa communities where parking is easy but the bridge crossings add real time, so a sitter on your own island is worth more than a closer one on the map. Sort the entry route at the meet-and-greet and hand over the keys, the access card or the gate registration then, so nobody is standing at a barrier on the first evening.

Villa and townhouse addresses in Khalifa City, Al Reef and Al Raha, apartment addresses in the Corniche, Al Reem Island and Al Khalidiyah, and everywhere else in Abu Dhabi. Use the map filter in the app to find a sitter who already lives near you.

Overnight pet sitting in Abu Dhabi is priced by the night, AED 100 to AED 250 per night, with most stays settling near AED 150. One rate covers the whole night rather than a block of hours, so the evening walk and the morning feed sit inside the same booking. Anything beyond pet care is agreed at the meet-and-greet.

Usually, and house sitting is the format where the bridge matters least. A drop-in sitter crosses twice a day. A house sitter crosses once at the start, once at the end, and stays put in between. Sitters who live on Al Reem or Saadiyat often prefer island bookings anyway, so filter the map to your own island first.

It helps. Pets here are registered with Abu Dhabi City Municipality, and a sitter who has the tag details and your vet clinic to hand can act quickly instead of phoning you abroad. Leave the paperwork next to the food and the lead when you do the meet-and-greet.

Yes. Two and three night bookings between November and April are common in Abu Dhabi and work the same way as a fortnight away. Agree the per-night rate up front and the sitter arrives the evening you leave.
