What are drop-in pet visits?

A sitter drops by your home for the essentials

Drop-in pet visits are short, focused visits by a verified sitter to your home while you are at work, out for the evening, or away for a few days. The sitter handles feeding, fresh water, litter scoop for cats, a walk or yard time for dogs, basic medication if needed, and dedicated play or pet time. Your pet stays in their own home, on their own routine, the whole time.

Petme connects Swiss pet owners with verified drop-in sitters across Zurich, Geneva, Basel, Bern, Lausanne, Lucerne, Winterthur, St. Gallen, Lugano, Biel/Bienne, and Interlaken. Every sitter passes ID verification and accumulates public reviews. Every booking is automatically covered by up to CHF 20,000 in veterinary protection. And pet owners pay 0% commission. The per-visit rate you agree with your sitter is the full price.

Drop-in visits are the lowest-stress option for cats, multi-pet households, and short trips. Browse profiles, read reviews from other Swiss owners, schedule a free meet-and-greet at your home, and book. Cashback lands automatically after every completed visit.

Why drop-in visits work

Your pet at home, not in a facility

Drop-in visits are the lowest-stress option for cats, multi-pet households, and short trips. Your pet stays in their own environment with their own routine, and you only pay for the visits you need.

Own home, own routine

Your pet keeps their own bowls, litter, walks, sleeping spots, and food schedule. No carrier rides, no boarding facility, no recovery time after the trip.

Pay only for what you need

Book one visit, two visits, or however many a day fits. Most healthy adult cats are fine with one daily visit; kittens, seniors, dogs, and medicated pets typically need two.

One verified sitter

A single ID-checked sitter handles all the visits across your trip. No rotating staff, just one consistent caregiver your pet gets to know.

Photo updates per visit

You get photos and a message after each visit so you can see exactly how your pet is doing. Calm, transparent, no surprises.

Multi-pet households welcome

Drop-in sitters can handle two cats, a cat and dog, kittens with seniors, even small animals. One visit, one sitter, all your pets.

CHF 20,000 vet protection on every visit

Every booking automatically includes up to CHF 20,000 in emergency vet coverage during the booking window. Swiss partner vets bill Petme directly.

Frequently asked questions

Everything you need to know about drop-in pet visits on Petme in Switzerland.

How much do drop-in pet visits cost in Switzerland?
Drop-in visits in Swiss cities typically run CHF 18 to CHF 40 per visit, depending on the city and number of pets. Zurich and Geneva sit at the higher end, smaller cities like Biel or Winterthur at the lower end. Petme charges 0% commission to owners, so the per-visit rate you agree with your sitter is the full price.
What is included in a drop-in pet visit?
A typical 30 to 60 minute visit covers the essentials: feeding, fresh water, litter scoop for cats, a walk or yard time for dogs, basic medication if needed, and dedicated play or companionship. You set the routine in your booking and the sitter follows it every visit.
Are drop-in visits good for cats as well as dogs?
Yes. Drop-in visits work well for both: cats get feeding, litter, water, and play; dogs get a walk, water, food top-up, and a bathroom break. For cats especially, staying home avoids the stress of transport and unfamiliar territory.
Can drop-in sitters handle multiple pets?
Yes. Many Swiss Petme sitters handle multi-pet households: two cats, a dog and a cat, kittens with seniors, even rabbits or hamsters. Mention the pet count and species when messaging sitters so they can confirm availability.
Are Petme drop-in sitters verified?
Yes. Every Petme sitter passes ID verification and accumulates public reviews from other Swiss owners. You can see verification badges, reviews, and photos on every profile before booking.
Can drop-in sitters give medication?
Many Petme sitters list medication experience: daily pills, liquids, transdermal ear gel, subcutaneous fluids for kidney cats, even insulin injections. Filter by experience level or mention the medication need in your booking request.
How does cashback work for drop-in visits?
After every completed visit, cashback is credited automatically to your Petme account. The more often you book, the more cashback compounds. Balance applies to future bookings across any Petme service.
Which Swiss cities have drop-in sitters available?
Petme currently offers verified drop-in sitters in Zurich, Geneva, Basel, Bern, Lausanne, Lucerne, Winterthur, St. Gallen, Lugano, Biel/Bienne, and Interlaken. The app shows sitters within a radius of your address.
