This provides up to $20,000 in veterinary care if your dog is injured or becomes ill during a stay or walk. No separate insurance purchase is required, and there is no opt-in process. The protection is included in every booking by default.
Yes. Every Petme booking starts with a free meet-and-greet. You and your dog get to meet the sitter in person before any booking is confirmed.

There is no charge for the meeting and no obligation to proceed.
