Leaving your pet with someone takes trust. Where huddle Care is available, you can read carer profiles and talk through your pet’s needs before agreeing to a booking. Read what to ask a pet sitter before you decide.
Choose the type of care you need and see what is available in the app. Tell the provider about your pet before deciding whether the service is a good fit.
In-home pet sitting or drop-in visits — short check-ins for feeding, medication, walks, and companionship.
An overnight stay with a carer. Discuss sleeping arrangements and your pet’s routine before booking.
Mobile or salon grooming — bathing, clipping, nail trims, ear care.
Ask about the trainer’s approach and experience with the behaviour you want help with.
Discuss the journey and how your pet will travel safely with the provider.
Trapping, transport, temporary holding, and coordination for strays and rescues in need.
Short or medium-term fostering — for animals awaiting adoption, recovery, or rehoming.
Connections to licensed veterinary and medical providers — Pet Carers must add a professional credential to offer this service.
Ask about the care your pet needs, especially anything that may be new to the carer. Their profile can help you start the conversation; the agreement should reflect what you both decide.
Look for the identity badge and read the profile. Identity checks do not establish experience with your pet’s needs.
Read what the carer chooses to share on their profile. A conversation gives you a chance to ask about anything that matters to your pet.
Read booking reviews for details that matter to you, such as communication and experience with a similar pet. Ask the carer about anything you are unsure of.
If a service requires a professional licence, review the provider’s credentials and check with the relevant licensing body. An identity badge alone does not confirm that someone is qualified to provide medical care.
Available services depend on your area and the providers offering them.
Read a carer’s profile and ask how they would look after your pet. Care availability depends on your area; the app will show whether bookings are open.
Review the agreement and payment details before confirming a Care booking.
Use the payment options shown at checkout. Your booking records stay in huddle if you need help later.
Use the booking’s help option if something goes wrong. Keep the relevant messages and photos, and check the booking terms for reporting deadlines.
Check the fee breakdown and total before paying. Ask about any part of the care agreement you do not understand.
Open Care in the app to check availability near you. Tell the carer what helps your pet feel settled, then review the agreement and price before confirming.
