Get paid to drop in on cats in Belfast, where regulars keep your diary full

Areas like Stranmillis and Ballyhackamore are full of flats and terraces where an indoor cat needs feeding, litter and a bit of company while its people are away. Cat visits in Belfast run £11 to £18 per 20 to 30 minute visit, and you keep up to 90% of every booking.

Local know-how pays off in Belfast
Belfast has a wet maritime climate with rain spread across the year, frosty spells in winter, and short winter days that leave a narrow window of daylight. Walkers who carry a raincoat and a towel, plan sheltered routes on the wettest days, and hold their slots through the drizzle keep the regulars that fair-weather walkers lose.
When demand peaks
Demand peaks over the summer holidays and across Christmas and New Year, with a second wave on the February, May and October half-terms and the bank-holiday weekends. Boarding and house sitting lead when owners travel; walking, daycare and drop-in visits carry the commuting week.
Know your Belfast areas
Most cat bookings cluster Stranmillis to Lisburn Road. Owners book the sitter who can reach them quickly for a daily visit, so the areas you list matter more than the distance you are willing to travel.
Cat visits around Stranmillis and the Lisburn Road
Cat visits in Belfast suit a sitter who can walk between homes. Stranmillis and the Lisburn Road sit close to Queen’s University, with rows of terraces and converted flats, and Ballyhackamore and the Ormeau Road have their own shops and cafés within easy reach of the streets around them. Holywood is a separate town along the lough shore, easier to cover by car. Pick the areas you can reach for both a morning and an evening visit, and set those as your cover on Petme.
