Post a request

Looking for a sitter and not sure who’s nearby? Post what you need and let local sitters come to you.

Before you post — what everyone will see

Your request is public so that sitters can find it. Anyone can read it, so we keep it deliberately vague about you:

  • We show your ZIP code, never your street address.
  • We show a first name only, never your full name.
  • We show roughly when you need a sitter (such as “early November”), never exact dates. Share the exact dates privately once a sitter reaches out.
  • Your phone or email stays hidden until a sitter taps to reveal it.

Please don’t put your address, exact dates, or anything you wouldn’t want a stranger to read into the note below.

Which pets?

500 characters left. No addresses or exact dates, please.

Hidden on the board until a sitter taps to reveal it.

We send a confirmation link here. Your post does not appear until you open it. This address is never shown on the board.
