How do I Pay my Pet Sitter?

 

We encourage our Pet Sitting Community to make at least a nominal charge for their professional services.

Many of our sitters charge a daily rate, some a fixed rate, and others living expenses – it’s entirely up to you and the Pet Sitter to agree what suits both parties.

Payments

When a Pet Parent accepts a Pet Sitter proposal they are asked to deposit the agreed funding to the Trust My Pet Sitter Escrow Account  – providing security for both parties.

The Pet Sitter can now plan to travel, safe in the knowledge the Pet Parent has confirmed the booking and deposited funds.

Pay-outs

Payments to Pet Sitters are normally paid out the day following successful completion of a Pet Sit.

Exceptionally, Pet Sitters can request an earlier pay-out from the Pet Parent account.

This is more common in longer sits of more than 7 days and is with the agreement of the Pet Parent.
