Frequently asked questions

Where in Alberta can I find a Petme sitter?
Petme covers the major Alberta cities: 3 supported metros and growing. Browse the city list below for local sitters and city-specific pricing.
How does the 0% owner fee work in Alberta?
Owners in Alberta pay 0% to Petme. You pay only the sitter’s rate in CAD. Protection Plan up to CAD 32,000.
What about HST/GST on the booking?
Sales tax is a sitter-side matter, not an owner add-on at checkout on Petme. Sitters who exceed CAD 30,000 in annual sitting revenue may register and remit; the combined sales tax rate in Alberta is 5%. You always see the final amount before booking.
Is the CAD 32,000 Protection Plan accepted at Alberta vet clinics?
Yes. The protection applies at any licensed Canadian vet clinic during the booking period. There is no deductible and the protection is automatic on every booking.
Can I find a weekend dog walker in Edmonton?
Yes. Sitters in Edmonton list weekend availability on their profiles. Filter by your dates and you only see sitters who are free on those days.
Does Petme cover winter walks in Alberta?
Yes. Many Alberta sitters spend more time outside than the average pet owner in winter and use pet-safe ice melt zones, paw balm, and the five-second pavement-temperature rule. Discuss winter routine with any sitter at the meet and greet.
