If you are going into hospital, planned or urgent, PetHome Israel can arrange a vetted sitter to care for your pet: cat visits from 110 ₪, dog walks from 70 ₪, home boarding from 220 ₪ per day or an overnight sitter from 380 ₪ per night. Photo and video after every visit let you see your pet from your hospital bed. A family member can make the request for you.

Planned hospital stays

If you know the date, book one to two weeks ahead and hold the meet-and-greet before admission. Show the sitter the routine, food, medication, safe room and carrier, and hand over keys. Agree on an open end date, because hospital stays can be longer than planned.

Urgent admissions

If you were admitted unexpectedly, a relative, neighbour or friend can send the request for you. We need the city, animals, how to get the key and someone who can open the door the first time. The first visit ends with photos and video, so you know your pet is fine.

Recovering at home

After surgery or illness you may be home but unable to walk your dog or bend down to clean a litter box. Regular dog walks, dog daycare from 180 ₪ or cat visits can cover the weeks of recovery. Tell us what you can and cannot do, and we plan around it.

Getting your pet where it needs to go

A pet taxi from 180 ₪ can take your dog to a boarding sitter, to the vet for a scheduled appointment or back home when you are discharged.

What every booking includes

  • A vetted sitter and, where possible, a meet-and-greet.
  • Responsible handling of keys.
  • Checks of windows, doors and the safe room.
  • Medication for your pet exactly as your vet prescribes: +30 ₪ for tablets or drops, +50 ₪ for injections.
  • Photo and video after every visit.

Decisions while you are unavailable

Name a trusted person who can make decisions about your pet if you cannot answer, and agree a spending limit for the vet. This protects your pet and removes stress from you.

Pricing

Standard prices apply. Bookings of 7 days or more get 10% off. The minimum order is 350 ₪.

What to tell the sitter

Give the sitter a short note with the feeding routine, medication, your vet's details, where the carrier and leash are, and who to call if you are unavailable. If your pet is used to sleeping with you, mention it: an evening visit or an overnight sitter can make the first nights easier for your pet.
