Find pet sitting in Sydney

Pet sitting may mean short home visits or another agreed arrangement. Explain where care is needed, the routine and the dates so the sitter can assess the request.

Local booking search uses your location or chosen suburb, a 10 km search limit and each provider's service radius. Providers must be ON to appear.

Jobs you can describe

  • Home check-in visits
  • Feeding and companionship
  • Multiple-pet care enquiries
  • Longer sitting arrangements

What to include in your request

  • List pets, ages and care routines.
  • Provide dates and number or length of visits.
  • Explain where care takes place and property access.
  • Disclose relevant behaviour and health needs.
  • Agree emergency contacts and updates during the stay.

Before booking

Confirm the care location and responsibilities before booking. If medication or specialist care is involved, ask whether the sitter can meet those needs and seek veterinary advice where needed.

Choose a booking request or a quote

For a booking request, choose Now, Later or Tomorrow and describe the job. Current availability does not reserve a future time; the provider must accept your request and confirm the timing.

If the scope or price needs discussion, request a quote with job details and photos. A quote enquiry is a message, not a travel request. Agree the scope and price, then book separately.

Need a Hand is currently running a controlled trial. Trial jobs and Stripe payments are simulated, with no real charges or payouts. Local supply may be limited.

Does pet sitting include overnight care?

Only if you agree that service with the provider. State whether you need visits or overnight care so the reply covers the right arrangement.
