How it works

How Pet Care works

Modern technology. Human connection.

  1. 1

    Build Your Nest

    Create your family profile and Care Plan with everything your caregiver needs to know about your children, home, routines, preferences, and more.

  2. 2

    Find Your Care

    Choose the date and time you need support and browse the vetted caregivers who are available. Review their experience, qualifications, bio, and introduction video to find the right fit for your family.

  3. 3

    Book With Confidence

    Select your caregiver and confirm your booking directly through the Pet Care platform. If no one is available for the time you need, post an open care request for qualified caregivers to respond to.

  4. 4

    Welcome Them Home

    Your caregiver arrives at the scheduled time with access to the information you've provided in your Care Plan, so they can step in feeling prepared. At the end of the shift, you'll pay your caregiver directly and have a record of your care experience within your Nest.

Why families choose us

The details, handled.

Thoroughly Vetted

We do the homework before a caregiver ever reaches your screen. Comprehensive background and MVR checks, professional references, experience verification, interviews, and CPR/First Aid certification are all part of our vetting process.
