Cat sitting jobs in Oxford: term-time travel keeps the visits coming
Oxford empties out every time the university breaks for conferences and holidays, and the cats left at home still need feeding, fresh water and a bit of company. That is the gap Petme cat sitters fill, one or two short drop-ins a day within walking distance of your own front door. Cat visits in Oxford run £13 to £21 per 20 to 30 minute visit, and you keep up to 90% of every booking.

Local know-how pays off in Oxford
Oxford 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 Oxford areas
Most cat bookings cluster Jericho to Summertown. 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.
Where cat visits take you across Oxford
Oxford is small enough to cover by bike, and many residents travel with the academic year. Summertown, Jericho and North Oxford sit north of the centre, Headington is up the hill to the east, Cowley lies to the south east around the Mini Plant, and Iffley is beside the Thames. Working two neighbouring areas beats crossing the whole city for one visit.
