Finding care in Groningen

Care close to home in Groningen

Newcomers to Groningen often start out with no one to ask. No family nearby, neighbours you have met twice, colleagues you would rather not hand a key to. Reading real reviews of sitters in Helpman and Paddepoel, then meeting one in person, is how that gap gets closed.

The cashback maths

What you save on a typical booking

Worked example: a five-night dog boarding stay in Groningen at 35 euro per night.

	Fee-charging platforms	Petme
Sitter rate (5 nights × 35 euro)	175 euro	175 euro
Pet-owner service fee	26-38 euro	0 euro
Booking subtotal	201-213 euro	175 euro
Cashback earned on Petme	-	-9 euro
Effective cost	201-213 euro	166 euro

The typical platforms column stands for the market norm of billing the owner a service fee. On Petme that line is zero, so the saving is real before cashback is counted at all.

Comparison

Petme vs other platforms

Other platforms

Typical platforms add an owner service fee on top of the sitter's rate at checkout.

A second booking with the same sitter costs exactly what the first one did.

Vet costs during a stay are left between you and the sitter.

You find out who is caring for your pet when they arrive.

FAQ

Frequently asked questions

how does the cashback work

Cashback is credited to your in-app balance once a booking is completed. There is no opt-in and no code to enter. You spend the balance on a later booking, and it applies to anything you booked, whether that was a single walk or a fortnight of boarding.

which services can I book in Groningen

Boarding at the sitter's home, house sitting at yours, daycare, dog walks and drop-in visits are all bookable in Groningen. Each sitter lists the services they offer on their profile, along with the rate for each one, so you can see straight away who covers what you need.

can I meet the sitter before booking in Groningen

Yes, and a meet and greet is free. It usually happens at your own address, so the sitter sees where the food is kept and how your pet behaves at home. Keys, feeding times and any medication go over at that meeting, and you book afterwards if it feels right.

is Petme a website or an app

Both, with different jobs. You can read sitter profiles and city pages on the website, while messaging, booking and cashback all happen in the iOS and Android app. That keeps every message and every payment on one record you can go back to later.

what should I leave for the sitter

Food and how much of it, the walk or feeding times, any medication, the vet's address and a way to reach you. Keys and the alarm code go over in person at the meet and greet. Most owners write the routine down once and leave it on the kitchen table.

can a sitter give my dog medication

Many sitters can, and it is worth asking in your first message. Write down the doses and the timings, then go through them at the meet and greet so nothing depends on memory. Sitters who have done it before usually say so on their profile.
