Pet Sitters & Dog Walkers in Singapore: 1 pet sitter compared

Updated October 2026How we rank
Pet sitting and dog walking in your own home need no AVS licence. Taking pets into the sitter's home is different: commercial boarding requires an AVS pet boarding licence, and HDB flats are limited to two cats and one approved small dog, so a sitter boarding several pets in an HDB flat is likely breaking the rules.

How to choose a pet sitter

  • Prefer drop-in or live-in sitting at your home if you have several pets or an HDB-restricted breed; it avoids pet-limit issues and stress.
  • If the pet will stay elsewhere, check that the place is on AVS's licensed pet boarding registry.
  • Do a meet-and-greet before booking, and leave written feeding, medication and vet instructions, including your vet's after-hours clinic.
  • Agree on daily photo or video updates and what the sitter should do in an emergency.

Red flags

  • A sitter offering to board many dogs in their HDB flat.
  • No meet-and-greet, references or reviews.
  • Reluctance to agree an emergency plan or share their address.

Questions about pet sitters & dog walkers in Singapore

Do pet sitters need a licence in Singapore?

Not to look after pets in the owner's own home or to walk dogs. Commercial boarding needs an AVS pet boarding licence, which requires AVS-recognised welfare training, a premises inspection and a $100 annual fee. Check AVS's public registry of licensed boarding facilities if your pet will stay elsewhere.

Can a pet sitter board my dog in their HDB flat?

HDB flats are limited to two cats and one dog from AVS's approved small-breed list, and Specified dogs are banned. A sitter keeping your dog in addition to their own pets, or boarding several dogs, may breach those limits, which can bring a fine of up to $4,000. In-home sitting at your place avoids this.

What should I leave for a pet sitter?

Leave written feeding amounts and times, medication instructions, your vet's and nearest 24-hour vet's details, your contact numbers and a backup contact, and your pet's licence and vaccination records. Agree in advance on a spending limit for emergency treatment.
