  • Pawshare Club is built to support dog lovers like you—helping each other reduce the financial and emotional stress of pet care. While the spirit of the platform is community-driven, there are real costs involved in keeping it running securely and smoothly, including technology, support, and outreach.

    Your contribution helps cover these costs and ensures we can keep improving the platform to better serve our members. We aim to keep our fees as low as possible—significantly more affordable than traditional pet-sitting services—so more people can access reliable, trustworthy support.

    By subscribing, you’re not just accessing a service—you’re helping build a caring, sustainable community for pet lovers.

  • We have a fair exchange system that rewards members for helping others with pet sitting/walking in the community. We use the same points to get help. We use reward points instead of money. Check out https://www.pawshareclub.com/how-points-work
