What this service covers
Boarding means your pet stays in the sitter’s own home while you are away — sleeping, eating and being walked on their usual routine, in a household rather than a kennel. Sitters list how many pets they take at a time, whether they have a yard, other pets or children, and which sizes they accept.

Send a request with the dates and times you need. The sitter confirms, and each visit keeps its own slot in their calendar.
What it costs
No sitter has published a rate for this service yet. Prices appear here as soon as one does.
Payment for the service happens directly between the owner and the provider. Petlify does not process pet-care payments and does not provide payment protection at this stage.
Frequently asked questions
- How long can a boarding stay be?
- As long as you and the sitter agree. Most stays run from a single night to a couple of weeks; the sitter’s calendar shows the nights they are free, and the price is quoted per night.
- What should I send with my pet?
- Food, medication, a leash and anything that helps them settle — a bed or a familiar toy. Feeding times, medication and vet details go in the booking, so both sides have the same instructions in writing.
- How is payment handled?
- Petlify does not process payments for care services. The price shown is a quote calculated from the sitter’s own rates; you and the sitter agree how to settle it directly.
