Local pet care and house sitting

Find care for your pet or home

Tell us what care you need, including house sitting with or without pets. Once your request is confirmed and public, we notify eligible local sitters whose service areas match. You do not need an account, and it costs nothing to ask.

  • Every post screened before it's public
  • Neighborhood only, never your address

First, make your request card

What needs care?

What kind of care do you need?

ZIP helps us find nearby pros. It is never shown on the card.

Location data is stripped automatically. Do not upload a photo showing another person without their permission, or an identifiable child.

What happens after you ask?

  1. 1. Confirm your email. Your request stays private until you use the confirmation link we send you.
  2. 2. We screen the request. We check that it contains enough information for a local professional to decide whether they can help. Your street address is never published.
  3. 3. Matching sitters can respond. Eligible local pros receive the request and contact you directly if the dates and care needs fit their business.
