Pet photographer jobs across the UK, with your shoots in the feed of owners nearby
Petme is a pet-care app with its own social feed. You post the shoots you do, and the home feed shows them first to people nearby, so owners in your city find your profile and message you. Approved sitters who pass a photography review build a menu of up to three packages and set every price themselves.
First you become a Petme sitter, then you send a separate photography application from the app.
Your shoots, seen by owners near you
On Petme, owners see your work without searching for you. The home feed shows posts from people nearby first, so your shoots reach the owners around you before anyone in another city, and the ones who like them can follow you and message you.
Post the shoots you do
Share photos and short videos from your sessions. Owners can like and comment on each post.
Nearby owners see it first
The home feed puts posts from people close by first. Owners follow you to see your next shoot.
They find you and message you
From a post, an owner reaches your profile and messages you in the app, then books one of your packages.
Who can offer pet photography on Petme
Pet photography has its own review on top of an approved sitter profile. The application asks for a portfolio, one proof of paid work and your declarations. If it is not approved, you can apply again after 15 days.
An approved, ID-verified sitter
You pass the same ID verification as every Petme sitter before the photography review starts.
A portfolio of animal photos
Photos of animals that show how you shoot, how you edit and how you handle pets on location.
Proof of paid professional work
At least one of three: a business registration, a client invoice, or a professional website or social profile.
At the owner's home, outdoors or in your studio
At the owner's home
You travel to the owner inside the radius you choose.
Outdoors
You meet the owner at a spot they name, such as a park or a street they walk every day.
In your studio
The owner brings the pet to you. Each photographer chooses which of the three places to offer.
Up to 3 packages, every price yours
Petme sets no photography rates. You build a menu of 1 to 3 packages, and owners see what each one holds before they book.
Shoot length and edited photos
Set by you for each package
Price and delivery deadline
Your price, and a delivery deadline of 3, 7 or 14 days
Revision rounds
From 0 to 3 rounds in each package
Previews first, originals after the owner accepts
Delivery happens in the app, and the owner decides at the end, which is also when your payout follows.
Watermarked previews
The owner first sees watermarked previews and has 3 days to accept, ask for changes or report a problem.
Full-quality originals
Once the owner accepts, they get your originals in full quality, never recompressed. A change request uses one of your package's revision rounds, and you re-deliver within 3 days.
Payout after acceptance
Your payout follows when the owner accepts. No answer in 3 days counts as accepted. If you miss the delivery deadline, the owner can cancel for a full refund.
