In Fort Worth, every pet shoot you post can bring in the next one, from West 7th to Tanglewood
Petme is a pet care app with a social feed. You post sessions from the Cultural District or Arlington Heights, the home feed shows them first to people nearby, and owners follow you, open your profile and book a package. Then you post that shoot too.
First you become an approved Petme sitter in Fort Worth, then you send the photography application from the app.
How one Fort Worth post leads to the next booking
A finished session from Near Southside or Fairmount is your best advert. Owners close by see it first in their feed, like it, follow you and message you, and the new shoot becomes your next post.
Your best frames, in the feed
A strong portrait from Sundance Square tells an owner more about your eye than a price list does. Post it, then the next one.
Nearby owners see it first
The Petme home feed shows posts from people nearby first, so owners around TCU/Westside and Near Southside come across your shoots early.
From a post to a booking
An owner who likes a post can follow you, open your profile and message you in the app, then book one of your packages.

Fort Worth areas you can cover
Pick the parts of Fort Worth you cover, from Sundance Square and TCU/Westside to Near Southside. For a shoot at the owner's home you set a travel radius from where you are. Outdoors, the owner names the spot. In your studio, the owner comes to you. You choose which of the three you offer.
What Fort Worth photographers get on Petme
Paid when the owner accepts
Your payout follows when the owner accepts the delivery. If they say nothing for 3 days it counts as accepted, so there are no invoices to chase.
Owners see the package first
Duration, edited photos, price, delivery deadline and revision rounds are on the page before anyone books, so a request already matches what you offer.
Originals stay full quality
You deliver full-quality originals in the app, never recompressed. The owner sees watermarked previews until they accept.
