Sole trader + tax

Sole trader (s.p.), FURS, and bookkeeping

Normirani s.p.

In Slovenia, regular pet sitting income usually means registering a sole trader (s.p. via AJPES). The most common setup for sitters is the normirani s.p. flat-rate scheme, which deducts 80% of revenue as expenses. Social contributions are paid monthly, income is reported annually to FURS. A local accountant takes most of the load off.

Deduct expenses

Poop bags, leashes, mileage for sittings, a share of your phone bill, pet first-aid courses are all classic deductions. A local accountant helps with filing.
