How much can I earn dog sitting in York?

Can I board dogs in an apartment in York?
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 York 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 York?
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 in York?
If you host dogs overnight as a paid business in York, City of York Council can require a home boarding licence under the Animal Welfare (Licensing of Activities Involving Animals) Regulations 2018. Occasional sitting for friends usually sits below that threshold, so check with the council before you scale up to regular overnight bookings.
Which York areas get the most overnight dog boarding?
Heworth and Bishopthorpe lead for overnight bookings in York, with steady demand across Acomb, Holgate, Clifton and Fulford. A house with a secure garden and room for a crate widens the stays you can take, though plenty of York sitters board smaller dogs comfortably without one.
