Built for dog sitters
Other platforms take 20 to 40% of your earnings. Petme keeps a low service fee, adds cashback for your clients so they rebook, and protects every booking with CHF 20,000 in vet coverage.
Boarding and daycare income
Stack overnight boarding with daytime daycare, walks, and drop-ins. Each service gets its own rate, so a single weekend can combine several booking types.
Recurring clients built in
Pet owners earn cashback on every Petme booking, so they keep rebooking with you. Boarding clients in particular tend to return for every trip once they trust a sitter.
Protected on every booking
CHF 20,000 emergency vet coverage on every confirmed booking. You never carry the liability alone while a dog stays in your home.
