My wife and I are happy with Wag! We've used both dog sitting and dog walking services. It's nice knowing we can have a nice date night knowing our family dog is safe, and is having fun also!

I have had nothing less than wonderful experiences with all of the dog sitters. This is the best app ever and I trust my dogs are in good hands.

Love Wag! Many of them send photos and/or videos, which I appreciate. They have helped so much when I am out for a long day and can’t get to my pup. We love wag!

How do I evaluate sitters?

Before any sitter begins working for Wag!, he or she must first undergo a thorough vetting process (which includes pet handling, safety tests, phone screening, and background checks). Many of the sitters have worked as veterinary technicians or shelter volunteers. The majority have been lifelong pet owners and caretakers. 95% of Wag! sittings result in a perfect, 5-star review.

How do I pay for the service?

Wag! accepts all major credit cards, including VISA, MasterCard and American Express. Never pay by cash or check as this makes your booking ineligible for premium insurance and 24/7 support.

When will I be charged for service?

Your card is charged after the service is complete. Wag! will hold onto the funds and release payment to your walker or sitter within 48 hours of the service being completed.
