Petme is a social network designed for pet owners and animal lovers. You can create profiles for yourself and your pets, follow others, share posts, and connect with a community that understands what it means to have animals at the center of your life. It is also the platform where pet owners find and book trusted local sitters, with the transparency of seeing a sitter's real life through their own posts before any booking is made.

No pet? You can still join
Even without a pet of your own, you can create a personal profile and connect with pet owners, follow animals you like, and explore the community. The platform also has an adoption feature for people who are considering bringing a pet home and want to find a match.Adding your pet
Once you have a personal profile, adding a pet takes a few minutes. Each pet gets their own profile integrated directly with yours. You manage everything from a single account, and you can add as many pets as you have. For step-by-step instructions, see our guide on creating a pet profile on Petme. You can also add relatives to your pet's profile so that co-owners or family members can be listed alongside a pet's profile, reflecting how shared care actually works.Finding a sitter through Petme
One of the main reasons pet owners choose Petme over other platforms is the level of transparency available before booking a sitter. Sitters on Petme maintain active social profiles showing their own pets, their home, and their daily routines through posts. You see who you are trusting with your pet before you make contact, not just a photo and a rating. When a sitter sees your pet's profile and your posts, they understand what they will be caring for before accepting a booking. This two-way visibility reduces surprises and leads to better matches. Owners have access to the Petme Protection Plan, which covers veterinary expenses up to a set limit per booking.Frequently asked questions
