Dog walking jobs across Greece

You pick which services to offer, so drop-in visits alongside dog walking is normal. Each carries its own rate that you set, and you can switch one off without touching the other. Most sitters in Greece start with one and add a second once the calendar fills.

Earnings depend on the services you offer and the hours you put in. As a worked example at Greece rates, eight dog walks a week at the lowest walk rate come to about €275 a month, and four nights of house sitting a week at the top rate to about €860. Overnight boarding and house sitting pay the most per booking, drop-ins and walks the least. You keep up to 90% of every booking: Petme's service fee is 10-20%.

You set the week yourself. One example: 4 dog walks during weekday lunchtimes, 2 drop-in visits in the evenings and one overnight stay at the weekend. At the lowest Greece rates that week comes to about €73. Taking more overnight stays is the quickest way to raise it, because they pay the most per booking.

Dog walking pays €8–€15 per walk on Petme. A 30-minute neighbourhood walk is typically priced near the lower end; longer walks, multi-dog walks, or walks in busy city centres command the upper end. You set your own rate when you build your profile.

Boarding at the sitter's home pays €20–€40 per night, and house sitting (you stay at the owner's home) pays €25–€50 per night. Overnight care pays more per booking than any other Petme service, so a few stays a month move your income the most.

Petme takes 10-20% from each completed booking and the sitter keeps up to 90%. The fee covers payment processing, customer support, and the Petme Protection Plan that covers every booking automatically.

Payouts are released automatically once a booking is marked complete in the Petme app. The money lands in your bank account within 2 business days. You don't need to invoice the owner or chase payment: the platform handles it end-to-end.

Every booking is covered by the Petme Protection Plan, which includes up to €20,000 in veterinary expenses if something happens to the pet in your care. It's automatic on every reservation: no separate purchase, no claim paperwork upfront. Petme also offers 24/7 customer support so you're never left handling an emergency alone.

You need to be 18 or older, own a smartphone capable of running the app, complete ID verification, and demonstrate genuine experience around animals during your profile review. Some local rules apply for commercial-scale boarding: see the country-specific question below.

It depends on the services you offer, your rates and how many owners near you are looking, so there is no fixed wait. What you control is the profile owners choose from: at least 4 clear photos, a written bio, clear service descriptions and rates in line with Greece. Opening your calendar over school holidays and Christmas, when owners travel, puts you in front of more requests.

Yes. You set your own availability and accept only the bookings that fit, so sitting in Greece can run alongside a full-time job: dog walks fit lunchtime windows, drop-in visits fit evenings, and weekend boarding fits around a Monday-to-Friday week.
