Brisbane

What to expect from overnight hosts in Brisbane

Brisbane has the longest dog-walking season in the country. Outside of January–February heat waves and the worst of the wet, walks happen year-round. Owners on the peninsula and around the river bends use Petme drop-in visits while at work.

Queensland school holidays match the rest of the country in summer, but the late-September break (footy finals season) is a smaller demand spike that catches first-time owners out. Lock in a sitter early.

FAQ

Frequently asked questions

Can I meet the sitter before I book?
Yes. Set up a free meet and greet through chat before the first booking. You drop off the dog, hand over food and bedding, and confirm everything in person.
What about my dog's diet and meds?
Add diet and medication notes to your booking. Sitters confirm before accepting and stick to the routine you set.
Is there a service fee for owners?
No. Petme charges pet owners 0% service fee. You only pay the sitter's rate, and you earn automatic cashback on every completed booking.
How much does dog boarding cost in Brisbane?
Overnight dog boarding in Brisbane costs A$55–A$90 per night. Rates vary by suburb, dog size, and length of stay. Multi-night stays often come with a discount.
Where does my dog stay?
At the sitter's home. Every Petme boarding sitter hosts a small number of dogs at a time, so your dog gets attention and couch time, not a kennel run.
Are boarding sitters in Brisbane vetted?
Yes. Every sitter passes identity and background checks. The Protection Plan can contribute up to A$32,000 toward eligible vet costs.
How far ahead should I book in Brisbane?
In Brisbane you can usually find someone within a day or two, and there are normally several sitters close by to compare. School holidays and the Christmas to January stretch book out earliest, so lock those in further ahead.
What if my dog has never stayed away before?
Do a meet and greet first, then a single trial night before the real trip. It is the standard way Brisbane owners handle a first boarding, and it tells you more than any profile can about whether the dog settles with that sitter.
Can I book a sitter in the Northside and Southside?
Yes, when a sitter's service area covers your suburb. Each Brisbane sitter on Petme sets the area they travel to or host from, and their profile shows it. Search from your own suburb in the app to see who covers it before you message anyone.
