Dog sitting jobs in Paisley, where airport travel and commuter life keep the kennels full
Paisley sits right next to Glasgow Airport and runs on commuters who are away for work trips and weekends, so plenty of local dogs need a proper home to stay in rather than a kennel. That gap is exactly what Petme dog boarders fill, hosting one dog at a time overnight, a few streets from where the owner lives. Dog boarding in Paisley runs £28 to £45 per night, and you keep up to 90% of every booking with sitter cashback.

Where overnight dog bookings cluster across Paisley
Boarding demand in Paisley leans on owner-heavy suburbs with houses and gardens, so the early bookings tend to land in Ralston and Castlehead where families travel most. Gallowhill and Hunterhill sit close behind for airport-run pickups, and Glenburn and Foxbar bring steady walking and daycare work between overnight stays. Holding two or three neighbouring streets keeps a dog boarder busier than chasing bookings across the whole of Renfrewshire.

Dog Sitting Jobs in Paisley
What new sitters ask before signing up on Petme in Paisley.
How much can I earn dog sitting in Paisley?
Dog boarding on Petme in Paisley runs £28 to £45 per night, with daycare and walks adding daytime income. You set your own rate per service, and with sitter cashback you keep up to 90% of every booking.
Can I board dogs in an apartment in Paisley?
Yes. You set your own house rules: the dog sizes you accept, how many dogs at once, and whether your home suits high-energy breeds. Many Paisley sitters board small and medium dogs from a flat near a park.
What is the difference between dog boarding and doggy daycare?
Boarding is overnight, billed per night, while the owner travels. Daycare is daytime only, billed per day, for owners at work. You can offer either or both and set a separate rate for each.
Do I choose which dogs and bookings I accept in Paisley?
Yes. You review each request, arrange a meet first if you want, and accept or decline. No assigned bookings and no minimum hours. You set your rates and availability per service.
What protection do I get on dog sitting bookings?
Every confirmed Petme booking, including boarding and daycare, includes £20,000 in vet protection for the dog in your care, at no cost to you or the owner.
Do I need a licence to board dogs at home in Paisley?
If you board dogs for money in Paisley, you may need a home-boarding licence from Renfrewshire Council under Scotland’s 2021 animal-licensing rules once you host regularly. Occasional sitting for friends usually sits below that, so check your council’s threshold before you take paid overnight bookings on Petme.
Do I need a garden to be a dog boarder in Paisley?
A private or shared garden helps a lot for dog boarding in Paisley, since it makes toilet breaks and off-lead time easy in houses around Ralston, Foxbar and Glenburn. Flats without outdoor space suit daycare, walks and drop-ins better, and you set which dogs and stays you accept on Petme.
