FAQ

Frequently asked questions

How much does dog boarding cost in Wollongong?
Overnight dog boarding in Wollongong 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 Wollongong vetted?
Yes. Every sitter passes identity and background checks. The Protection Plan can contribute up to A$32,000 toward eligible vet costs.
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 far ahead should I book in Wollongong?
A few days is usually enough in Wollongong. Sitters here cover a wider radius than in the capitals, so a meet and greet before the first booking saves time later.
Is this someone home or a kennel?
A home. Boarding on Petme in Wollongong means your dog stays in the sitter's own house with a small number of dogs, sleeps inside, and keeps something close to a normal household routine. There are no runs and no concrete.
