About house sitting in Valletta

Why Valletta owners pick Petme for house sitting

House sitting in Valletta means a sitter living in a historic townhouse or a converted apartment inside the walls, often a walk-up with no lift and a pet that treats the building's stairwell as home territory. For cats especially, staying put beats relocating: the capital's compact streets, cruise-day crowds and festa-season noise make environment changes harder here than elsewhere.

The heaviest Valletta house-sitting weeks are mid-August, when fireworks from the surrounding Santa Marija parishes carry clearly across the harbour, and the Christmas window when residents travel. Sitters keep the routine you leave behind, close the shutters on display nights, and send a daily photo update through the app.

Local context

House Sitting across the Maltese calendar

Summer heat (Jun–Sep)

Sitters in Valletta schedule around the midday heat. Most bookings shift to before 9am or after 7pm during the hot months so paws stay safe on the limestone.

Festa fireworks (Jul–Sep)

Malta's festa season brings island-wide fireworks, peaking around Santa Marija on 15 August. Sitters plan calmer routes and adjust schedules on major display nights.

Hunting season (Sep–Jan)

Dog-related bookings around Mellieħa, Buskett and Dingli avoid the worst hunting hotspots between September and January. Sitters know the safer routes.

Frequently asked

Common questions from Valletta owners

How much does house sitting cost in Valletta?
Rates in Valletta run €25 to €50 per night, with the inner-harbour towns (Sliema, St Julian's, Ta' Xbiex) at the upper end. Petme charges 0% to owners and includes €20,000 Protection Plan on every booking.
Does the sitter sleep in my home?
Yes. The sitter stays overnight in your home, follows the routine you leave behind, and cares for your pet as if it were their own. Your home stays occupied while you are away.
Is this better than boarding for the festa fireworks?
For anxious pets, yes. House sitting keeps the pet in their familiar environment during the late-July to mid-September fireworks peak. The sitter can close blinds, play familiar sounds, and stay close during display nights.
Can I meet the sitter before the first booking?
Yes. We recommend a free meet-and-greet in your Valletta home so the sitter knows the key code, alarm, the pet's routine, and you've handed over keys in person before the trip starts.
Are sitters in Valletta verified?
Yes. Every Petme sitter passes an ID verification check and is rated by real Maltese owners. Read reviews on each sitter profile, then book a free meet-and-greet before the first booking.
What does the Petme Protection Plan cover?
Up to €20,000 in vet expenses if anything happens to your pet during the booking. Automatic on every booking in Valletta, no separate purchase, no deductible.
Is there a booking fee?
No. Petme charges 0% to pet owners. The rate on the sitter's profile is exactly what you pay at checkout. Sitters also earn cashback on every completed booking.
