Frequently asked

Questions from Old Birkirkara owners

Are the narrow streets safe for dog walks?
Yes, with basic awareness. Traffic in the old core is generally slow and most sitters stick to the quieter parallel streets for the daily walk.
How is the cat-rescue community organised?
Old Birkirkara has a strong network of cat-rescue volunteers and several Petme sitters also volunteer with the rescues. You can find sitters who handle multi-cat households comfortably.
Where do Old Birkirkara residents walk dogs?
The Wied il-Qlejgħa valley is the main walking destination, plus the quieter streets towards Santa Venera and the bypass-side greenways.
How do sitters handle the summer heat in Old Birkirkara?
By moving the day around it. Walks go early in the morning and again after sunset, pavements get checked with a hand before a dog is taken out on them, and the middle of the day is for shade, water and quiet indoors. Agree the timings with your Birkirkara sitter when you book, and say so if your dog is a flat-faced breed or an older one that struggles in the heat.
What do I need to have in order before booking in Old Birkirkara?
Your dog should be microchipped and on the national register, which is required in Malta under the Electronic Identification of Dogs Regulations. Beyond that, give your Old Birkirkara sitter the vet you use, the feeding routine, and a note of how your dog behaves with other dogs on a narrow street, which comes up more in Birkirkara than in most places.
What does Petme cover in Old Birkirkara?
Verified pet sitters offering boarding, in-home sitting, drop-in visits and dog walks across Old Birkirkara. Every booking includes €20,000 Protection Plan at no extra cost.
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.
