Walker Questions
About Leaving Wag for ThePetSitter
- Significantly more! While Wag pays walkers $12-15 per walk (keeping $8-10 for themselves), ThePetSitter's zero commission model means you can earn the full rate clients pay. On a $25 walk, you keep $25 instead of Wag's $15 payout - that's 67% more earnings.
- Our comprehensive verification process and professional platform attract serious pet owners who understand quality costs more. They're willing to pay fair rates for background-checked, insured, professional walkers rather than random gig workers.
- Pet owners actively seek verified, background-checked walkers after poor experiences with unvetted Wag walkers. Our professional badge immediately builds trust, leading to more bookings, higher rates, and repeat clients.
- Advanced GPS tracking with automatic updates, professional photo documentation, client communication portal, route optimization, emergency support hotline, and comprehensive insurance. Wag's basic app offers minimal features.
- Immediately after each walk completion. No more waiting days or weeks like Wag's payment delays. Your earnings are processed instantly and available right away through our advanced payment system.
- Absolutely! ThePetSitter is designed for professional pet care providers. Build lasting relationships with regular clients, set your own schedule, and develop a sustainable business - not just pick up random walks when Wag has overflow.
- Many successful ThePetSitter walkers transition their best Wag clients to our platform. You can offer them better service (professional tools, comprehensive insurance) at competitive rates while earning significantly more yourself.
