From Pennsylvania down to Topsham: pet sitting jobs across Exeter
Exeter runs from Pennsylvania on the hill above the centre down to the estuary at Topsham, and the housing changes as you go. Offering walks, drop-ins, daycare, boarding and house sitting lets you take bookings from all of it rather than one pocket. Set your own rates and keep up to 90% of every booking.

Local know-how pays off in Exeter
Exeter 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 Exeter areas
Most bookings cluster Heavitree to Pennsylvania. Owners look for sitters who know the area and can reach them without a long trip.
Breeds you will meet in Exeter
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.
How the work shifts between the hill and the estuary
St Leonards and Heavitree are close-in streets of terraces and flats, where a cat visit or a short walk fits into a round done on foot. Pennsylvania sits next to the Streatham campus, so term dates set the rhythm of the year there. Topsham has the estuary path and the Goat Walk, an hour of walking without leaving the town. Pinhoe and Alphington are newer family estates with gardens, the sort of house with room for a dog to stay. A sitter who offers all five follows that pattern round the city instead of waiting for one type of request.
