About sitting in Msida
What sitting in Msida looks like
Msida's marina seafront and the green campus around Mater Dei make for surprisingly enjoyable dog walks despite the town's busy reputation. Sitters use the Msida Marina promenade for early-morning walks, the quieter side streets near the Old Parish Church for short loops, and the open spaces near the University for longer afternoon outings.
Sitters in Msida typically build their book through a combination of recurring weekday walks, weekend boarding, and the long-travel weeks (summer, Christmas, Easter). The platform's rating system rewards consistency, so reply quickly to enquiries and always show up on time for the first few bookings.

Frequently asked
Sitter FAQs for Msida
How much can I earn as a sitter in Msida?
Maltese sitters set their own rates. Petme keeps a small platform fee out of what you earn, so sitters keep up to 90% of every booking. Earnings depend on service mix (boarding, walks, drop-ins) and how many recurring bookings you build.
What does Petme cover for sitters?
The Petme Protection Plan can contribute up to €20,000 toward eligible vet costs, the platform handles payment processing, ID verification builds trust with owners, and the rating system rewards consistent sitters with more visibility.
Do I need a kennel or licence to sit in Msida?
Petme is a home-based model: pets stay in your home (boarding) or you visit theirs (drop-in / house sitting). No kennel required. For regular sitting income in Malta you do register as self-employed with the Maltese tax authority.
Is sitting demand year-round in Msida?
Yes. Maltese demand is steadier than most European markets, with summer travel peaks, Christmas, Easter, and the August festa season as the busiest windows. Recurring weekday walks and drop-ins keep books full off-peak.
How do I get my first Msida booking?
Apply, pass ID verification, build out your profile with clear photos and a thoughtful bio, and offer to do free meet-and-greets. How soon it comes depends on your rates and how many owners near you are looking, so there is no fixed wait. Opening your calendar over summer, Christmas, Easter and the August festa season, when owners travel, puts you in front of more requests.
