The cashback maths

What you actually save on a typical booking

Worked example: a 5-night dog-boarding stay in Denver at $65 per night. The sitter sets the same rate either way. The difference is what each platform stacks on top.

	Typical platforms	Petme
Sitter rate (5 nights × $65)	$325	$325
Pet-owner service fee	$35–$50	$0
Booking subtotal	$360–$375	$325
Cashback earned	$0	−$16
Effective cost	$360–$375	$309

The competitor column is a typical owner-side service fee on platforms that charge one on top of the sitter rate (Rover, Wag and Care.com all publish their current fees on their own sites, and those fees change). Petme charges pet owners 0% and credits up to 5% cashback automatically into your Petme balance.

Comparison

Petme vs other US platforms

Typical platforms

Pet owners pay a platform service fee on top of every booking, added at checkout.

No cashback. Repeat bookings cost the same as the first.

Emergency vet costs limited or behind a paid tier, with caps and exclusions set out in each platform's own policy pages.

Sitter matching rotates you through whoever is available. No same-sitter guarantee.

Petme

Pet owners pay 0% on Petme. The sitter sets the rate, you pay only the rate.

Up to 5% cashback on every completed booking, paid into your Petme balance instantly.

$22,000 in vet expenses included on every booking, no deductible, no upcharge.

Search and rebook the same sitter directly. Most Petme owners stick with one preferred sitter after the first 2–3 bookings.

Protection and cashback

Protection and cashback, automatic

$22,000 Protection Plan on every booking

Every booking on Petme includes up to $22,000 in vet expenses if something happens during the stay. The protection is automatic, has no deductible, and applies whether you book one drop-in visit or a two-week boarding. No claim form to fill out before the vet visit: open a ticket from inside the booking and Petme support coordinates with the clinic.

Automatic cashback, no signup, no opt-in

When a booking completes, up to 5% cashback is credited to your Petme balance straight away. Use the balance toward your next booking, no expiry, no minimum. The more you book, the more comes back.

How it works

Pick your dates, choose a service, and browse verified sitters in your part of the city. Read profiles, reviews, and house rules before reaching out.

Message in chat, meet in person

Book inside the app, get cashback

Confirm the booking, the sitter is notified, and up to 5% cashback lands in your Petme balance automatically when the stay ends.

Local context

Booking a sitter in Denver: what to know

Denver sits at 5,280 feet, so dogs new to altitude tire faster and need more water. Sitters watch for thin-air fatigue on summer hikes, rinse ice-melt off paws in winter, and know that a 70-degree morning can turn into an afternoon snow squall. Ski-season weekends (December to March) drive I-70 mountain travel and steady boarding demand, with a second peak over the summer travel window. Daily walks run year-round thanks to Denver's active, dog-heavy population.

FAQ

Frequently asked questions

Are pet sitters in Denver really vetted?

Yes. Every Petme sitter in Denver passes identity verification with a government ID and a background check before their profile goes live. First bookings are tagged so you can see whether a sitter is new or established, and reviews are open and unfiltered.

What does the 0% owner fee actually mean in practice?

It means Petme adds nothing to the sitter's rate: a $325 5-night boarding costs you $325. Other US platforms (Rover, Wag, Care.com) charge pet owners a service fee on top of the sitter's rate at checkout, and their exact fees are published on their own sites and can change. On Petme there is no owner-side fee to compare.

How does cashback work for Denver bookings?

When you complete a booking with a sitter in Denver, Petme credits up to 5% of the booking value back into your in-app balance. The balance applies to your next booking with no expiry and no minimum. New customers see the credit within hours of booking completion.

What happens if my pet needs a vet during a stay in Denver?

Every Petme booking automatically includes up to $22,000 in vet expenses if something goes wrong during the stay. The protection has no deductible and applies whether you book one walk or a two-week boarding. Open a ticket from inside the booking and Petme support coordinates directly with the Denver clinic.

Can I cancel if my plans change?

Yes. Each sitter sets their own cancellation policy and it's shown clearly on their profile before you book. Cancellations made inside the sitter's free-cancel window are refunded in full to your original payment method.

What about Denver-specific rules I should know?

Colorado requires no state pet-sitter licence. Denver enforces a citywide leash-and-waste ordinance and runs permitted off-leash dog parks. Pet-sitting income is self-employment income on a federal Schedule C, with a 1099-NEC from Petme once your annual earnings pass the federal reporting threshold plus a flat Colorado state income tax.

Is Petme an app or a website?

Both. Search and read profiles on the website. Booking, messages, payment, and cashback all run inside the iOS and Android app.
