Price ranges
UAE pet care prices by service
These are typical AED ranges on Petme across Dubai, Abu Dhabi and Sharjah. The band is the same in all three: what moves the price is the pet, the dates and the sitter, not the emirate. Sitters set their own rates, so you see the exact price before you book, and Petme charges owners 0% commission.

| Dog boarding | AED 80 to 200 per night | AED 2,400 to AED 6,000 | In-home villa boarding, one or two dogs at a verified sitter's home. |
| House sitting | AED 100 to 250 per night | AED 3,000 to AED 7,500 | A sitter stays overnight at your home so your pet keeps every routine. |

How much does pet boarding cost in Abu Dhabi?
Petme hosts in Abu Dhabi charge AED 80 to AED 200 per night, the same band as the rest of the UAE: the rate moves with the dog, the dates and the host rather than the emirate. A commercial facility in Abu Dhabi is a different product and prices per kennel run; published rates there sit around AED 105 to AED 165 per night. Owners pay 0% commission on Petme.
How much does pet boarding cost in Sharjah?
Boarding in Sharjah runs AED 80 to AED 200 per night at a verified host's home, with most bookings near AED 120.

What does pet care cost per month in the UAE?
Over a month, nightly dog boarding works out at AED 2,400 to AED 6,000 and one drop-in visit a day at AED 1,500 to AED 3,000. Long stays are normal here because families leave for the whole July to August break, so agree the nightly rate and the routine with the host in advance.

No. Petme charges pet owners 0% commission. The rate you agree with your sitter is the full price, and you earn cashback after every completed booking.
What is included in the price?
