What to expect from verified daycare sitters in Adelaide

Adelaide owners use Petme heavily for weekday walks and weekend daycare while they head to the Barossa or Fleurieu. The drop-in service is popular because the city skews older and owners often want someone to give the cat company while they spend a Saturday at the wineries.

Mad March (Adelaide Festival, Fringe, WOMADelaide, the 500) is the city's busiest booking month. Plan ahead.

FAQ

Frequently asked questions

How much does dog minding cost in Adelaide?
Dog minding in Adelaide runs A$50–A$75 for a full day at the minder's home. Half-day rates run A$33–A$53. Recurring weekday bookings often come with a discount.
What does a day of dog minding look like?
Drop-off in the morning, a walk, supervised play with the minder's family and any compatible dogs, lunch, a nap, an arvo walk, then pickup. You get a photo update at lunchtime so you can see how the day is going.
Is this a kennel?
No. Every Petme daycare is a real home. Minders host a small number of dogs at a time, so your dog gets attention and couch time, not a kennel run.
Can I drop off the same dog every weekday?
Yes. Recurring weekday daycare is one of the most common Petme bookings. Lock in a minder you trust and book a weekly schedule.
Are dog minders in Adelaide vetted?
Yes. Every dog minder passes identity and background checks before they can take a booking, and reviews come from real Aussie owners. The Protection Plan can contribute up to A$32,000 toward eligible vet costs.
Is there a service fee for owners?
No. Petme charges pet owners 0% service fee. You only pay the minder's rate, and you earn automatic cashback on every completed booking.
How far ahead should I book in Adelaide?
In Adelaide 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.
Is this a kennel or someone's home?
A home. Petme daycare in Adelaide happens in the host's own house with a small number of dogs, not in a commercial kennel with runs. You see photos of the space before you book.
Can I book a sitter in the Adelaide Hills?
Yes, when a sitter's service area covers your suburb. Each Adelaide 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.
