FAQ

Frequently asked questions

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 Wollongong vetted?
Yes. Every dog minder passes identity and background checks before they can take a booking, and reviews come from real Aussie owners. Each booking includes up to A$32,000 through the Protection Plan at no extra cost.
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 much does dog minding cost in Wollongong?
Dog minding in Wollongong runs A$40–A$65 for a full day at the minder's home. Half-day rates run A$26–A$46. Recurring weekday bookings often come with a discount.
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.
Can my dog go once a week instead of daily?
Yes. Plenty of Wollongong owners book one or two days a week rather than five. You book the days you need and there is no subscription or minimum commitment.
