Real-time GPS tracking for every pet walk and sit.
PetTrack is a hyper-local, GPS-integrated marketplace connecting vetted pet sitters with anxious owners. Using a no-code mobile app (built on Bubble or Glide), sitters share real-time location during walks, drop-ins, and sitting jobs. Owners see a live map, receive notifications, and get a summary report afterward. For sitters, PetTrack is a trust-building tool that helps them stand out, charge premium rates, and manage client communication seamlessly. The platform launches in a single neighborhood, focusing on quality over quantity. Revenue comes from a 15% commission per booking. The founder manages operations part-time (5–15 hrs/week) from a hybrid location, handling sitter onboarding, basic marketing, and community support. This lean, B2B2C approach addresses the #1 complaint in pet sitting: “What really happened during the visit?” By bridging the trust gap, PetTrack creates a win-win for both sides of the marketplace.
Pet tech spending is booming, and owners increasingly demand transparency. Recent viral stories about pet sitter negligence have made trust a top priority—GPS tracking directly addresses this gap.

The platform takes a 15% service fee on each booking. Average booking value is $25 (30-min walk), so revenue is $3.75/transaction. As sitters gain repeat clients, lifetime value per sitter can exceed $500. Low overhead and organic growth keep costs minimal.
