Everything you need
to run your business

From booking to payment, CritterTrust handles the business side so you can focus on the animals.

📋
Your own booking page

A public page with your services and prices. Share the link anywhere, and clients book you directly. It goes live once your background check clears.

📍
Visit check-ins

Check in and out from your phone. Owners can follow the visit while it's happening and see a map of where you checked in and out.

📱
Report cards

After each visit, send the pet's mood, a note, and photos. Owners get it by email and in the app.

💸
Invoicing & payments

Send invoices and take card payments through Stripe, straight to your own account. We never touch your money. Paid in cash, Venmo, or Zelle? Record it in the app.

🔒
Background checked

A Checkr background check puts a badge on your profile. It renews every year, and the app reminds you before it expires.

💬
Built-in messaging

One message thread with each client, with booking updates posted right in the conversation.

Before taking bookings, every sitter completes a $60 background check, paid in the app. It's good for one year and is non-refundable, including if the check doesn't pass.

Not sure the $60 is worth it? Take the five-minute test drive and see what the background check unlocks.

Founding Sitters

I'm personally inviting about 20 sitters in the Dayton area to be the first on CritterTrust. Founding Sitters get a free month of Pro and a permanent Founding Sitter badge on their profile.

Use the email you'll sign up with, so your invite matches your account.
