House sitting in St. John's

Staying put in St. John's: your pets, your house, a sitter overnight

Owners in St. John's can book a sitter who stays overnight in their own home, so the pets are not moved anywhere. Feeding, walks, litter and medication routines carry on, and the sitter can bring in the mail and keep lights on so the home looks lived-in. Whether you live near Quidi Vidi, Churchill Square, the Battery or Rabbittown, the sitter comes to you. Winters are long and cold, so a person in the house while you are away counts for a lot. Every sitter's ID is verified, and you can arrange a meet and greet in the Petme app before you book. Nightly rates run CAD 40 to 65, and the Petme Protection Plan can contribute up to CAD 32,000 toward eligible vet costs.
