Frequently Asked Questions
Nothing. The Pet Sitter is completely free for pet owners. You only pay the sitter's rate directly — no booking fees, no service charges.
Instead of taking a commission from every booking like other platforms, sitters pay a small flat annual subscription. This means whether you earn $500 or $5,000 a month, you keep it all.
Every sitter profile is manually reviewed by our team before it goes live. We check for completeness, quality, and authenticity. Background checks are available as an additional trust signal.
Pet boarding (overnight stays at the sitter's home), house sitting (sitter stays at your home), drop-in visits, dog walking, and doggy daycare.
We're currently launching in Melbourne, Australia, with plans to expand to other cities soon. Join the waitlist for your city.
