Awful app! Scam!

Don’t waste your money on a background check. The only reason I joined PetMe is because they gave me a free invite to join (probably because they knew I wasn’t going to pay for the background check) and I wanted to see just how bad it really was since I saw people on Reddit saying so many bad things about this app.

I tried emailing their support email for help and they ghosted me. I can’t say I’m surprised though given what a scam this app is.

I can see why their subreddit (r/PetMePetSitting) got mass reported and banned. They use shills and astroturfing to trick you into thinking this is a good app.

PetMe is genuinely the worst pet caregiver app I’ve ever seen and I’m on multiple pet caregiver apps.

Instead of wasting your money on this app, join a legitimate pet caregiver app like Rover and/or Wag! instead. Neither of these apps are perfect, of course, and they do have their flaws, BUT at least you won’t be getting scammed like you would by wasting your money on a background check on PetMe.

Edit: Just when I thought this app couldn’t get any worse they sent me an email on 6/23/2026 saying that I had to pay a $299 “penalty fee” aka ransom because I “left booking requests unanswered”. This is completely false, I didn’t receive any booking requests nor did I receive any notifications from PetMe. This app is a scam!

no customers

it’s not popular enough to get customers and i live in a big city too. rover you pay the fee and make your money back quickly and i think it’s insane of them to charge 50 dollars when it’s basically just for the pet social media aspect of it and a lot of the reviews are by people who are part of that weird group they have to promote it. i was going to get rover and then saw a comment recommending this pretending it was safer with more customers and its not true. you could at least make the background check cheaper until you’re more established do not go on here if you’re low on money and need to make some because you will waste 50 dollars you can’t make bad i wish i would ahve spent it on rover because i don’t ahve the money now

Response from developer

Hi, thank you for your feedback. Petme currently has more than 200,000 users on the platform and hundreds joining on a daily basis. While we can guarantee the authenticity of our user base, we cannot guarantee that they will choose to book with you. Your Petme profile is your business, and we encourage you to take full advantage of all the tools and features available on the app to promote it. Many pet sitters are already succeeding big time on Petme, completing dozens of sits per week, because with us, they keep way more of what they earn compared to all other apps and by actively showcasing and sharing their services and their Petme profile everywhere. We believe you can achieve the same level of success if you do the same. Best regards, The Petme Team

This app is amazing

Platform needs more safeguards for sitters

Signed up as a sitter and didn’t receive any requests for months, then finally got one from a completely blank profile (no photo, no pet details, no location). The app still allowed them to send a booking request with just a price listed.

The request was for dog walking over Memorial Day weekend, just once each morning, but there were zero details about the dog, the home, or even the general area. When I asked for basic info, they closed the request without responding.

For safety and usability, sitters should be able to see at least general location, pet type, and some profile verification before accepting requests. Right now it feels like there aren’t enough safeguards in place.
