Xemxija · St Paul's Bay, Malta

Pet sitters in Xemxija

Xemxija sits on the western slope of St Paul's Bay, climbing from the bay up to Mistra and Selmun. The area is quieter and more residential than Bugibba and Qawra, with a mix of long-time Maltese homes and apartment blocks. Sitters here cover the bay-side downstairs blocks and the more rural inland properties.

Frequently asked

Questions from Xemxija owners

Is Xemxija good for dog walks?
Yes. Xemxija has access to the Mistra Bay path and the Selmun rural lanes, both of which are quiet and offer longer-walk options away from the busy bay.
How do sitters cover the steep upper streets?
Most Xemxija sitters live on the slope themselves and are familiar with the gradient. Walks are usually planned downhill to the bay first and back up at the cooler end of the day.
Are there managed cat colonies in Xemxija?
Yes, smaller colonies in the bay area and around the Mistra approach. Some sitters volunteer with the colonies and can combine indoor cat visits with colony feeding.
What does Petme cover in Xemxija?
Verified pet sitters offering boarding, in-home sitting, drop-in visits and dog walks across Xemxija. Every booking includes €20,000 vet protection 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.
