How much does the PawsPet Business dog sitter app cost?+
No subscription and no monthly plan: profile, services, calendar, clients and orders are free. PawsPet keeps its share only on orders the client pays in the app; the «You receive» line in each order always shows the net amount you get. For new profiles, payments are online only: in-person payments are not available.
Do I need a VAT number to create a pet sitter profile?+
Not in the form: choosing «Individual» as the business type, your tax code identifies you and the VAT number is an optional field. Stripe then asks for an ID document and the bank account for your transfers. The tax obligations of your activity remain yours: PawsPet neither checks nor replaces them.
How do I price a walk with two dogs?+
In «Prices and options» create a «Per hour» option and turn on «Multiply price by number of pets»: the client picks a start and end time and selects their dogs, and the app multiplies the price by the whole hours (rounded up) and by the number of pets. You can set «Max pets per booking» and limit the option to dogs.
What do I see about the pet I will look after, and for how long?+
With the order the pet appears in the PawsPet app under «Pets» » «Clients», and you can open its record while the service is in progress. Then access expires on its own: if you try to reopen it, the app tells you which order it came from and leaves you «Go to order» and «Message the owner». To see it again you need a new order or a share from the owner.
When do I get the money for a walk paid by card?+
After you accept, the client's card is pre-authorised: tap «Collect payment» to charge it. The net amount reaches your balance when the client confirms they received the service, or after automatic confirmation. Your balance is transferred in full on the first of every month; from «Payouts» you can request one manual payout a month (a €1 fee under €20).
