Why Petme in Los Angeles
0% fee. 5% cashback. $22,000 vet protection. Same sitter, every time.
The dog-sitter market has been Rover's and Wag's for a decade. Petme rebuilt the economics around the pet owner. Los Angeles owners on Petme pay less per booking, get more protection, and earn cashback on every stay. Sitters keep more of the rate, which is why they show up.
0% service fee for pet owners
Rover, Wag, and Care.com layer a 5% to 11% service fee on top of the sitter's rate at checkout. Petme layers 0%. You pay only the rate the sitter sets. On a typical 5-night booking, that's $35 to $50 you don't pay.
$22,000 vet protection, included
Every Petme booking includes up to $22,000 in vet expenses if something happens during the stay. No deductible, no upcharge, no upgrade tier. Petme coordinates with the Los Angeles clinic from inside the app.
Up to 5% cashback, automatic
When a booking completes, up to 5% cashback lands in your Petme balance instantly. Use it toward the next booking, no expiry, no minimum. Rakuten-style economics applied to your pet's second home.
Verified, background-checked sitters
Every Petme Los Angeles sitter passes identity verification with a government ID plus a background check before going live. Reviews are open and unfiltered. Same-sitter rebooking is one tap, not a matchmaking dice roll.
The cashback maths
What a 5-night booking in Los Angeles actually costs
Worked example at the Los Angeles median nightly rate ($75 per night). The sitter sets the same rate either way; the difference is what each platform stacks on top.
| Line item | Petme | Fee-charging platforms |
|---|---|---|
| Sitter rate (5 × $75) | $375 | $375 |
| Pet-owner service fee (~11%) | $0 | ~$39 |
| Cashback earned (up to 5%) | −$19 | n/a |
| Effective cost | $356 | $414 |
Competitor column reflects platforms that charge pet owners a service fee on top of the sitter rate (Rover, Wag, Care.com). $22,000 vet protection is included in the Petme price; competitors charge separately or cap medical reimbursement.
