Brighton pet sitting jobs, where the flats and the hills set the day
Kemptown, Brunswick and Hove are Regency terraces and converted flats, most without a garden, so pets there need someone calling in rather than a back door left open. You set a rate for each service you offer and pick the streets you want. Set your own rates and keep up to 90% of every booking.

Local know-how pays off in Brighton
Brighton 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 Brighton areas
Most bookings cluster Kemptown to Hanover. Owners look for sitters who know the area and can reach them without a long trip.
Breeds you will meet in Brighton
Owners here mostly keep Labrador Retriever, Cocker Spaniel, French Bulldog, Staffordshire Bull Terrier. Knowing how those breeds behave, and saying so on your profile, is what turns a first booking into a repeat client.
A city of flats, hills and one long seafront
Kemptown, Brunswick and Hove are mostly flats and converted houses on the flat ground by the sea, so dogs get walked rather than let out and cats need someone to call in. The seafront runs unbroken from Hove Lawns to the Marina, which makes the walking easy and the parking hard. Hanover climbs steeply from the Level in narrow terraced streets, so allow more time there than the distance suggests. Preston Park and Seven Dials sit further up the valley, with larger houses, gardens and the city's biggest park. The South Downs start at the top of the city, which is where the longer walks go.
