How It Works

At Woof & Board, we make finding the perfect sitter for your pet a seamless and personalized experience. Here’s how it works:

  • Tell us about your pet’s needs and the dates you need care.

    How to Get Started: Fill out our quick and easy Inquiry Form.

    What We Need: Basic details about your pet, the type of care you’re looking for, and your preferred dates.

  • We’ll follow up via email to learn more about your furry friend!

    What We’ll Ask For:

    • Your pet’s personality, habits, and care requirements.

    • Medical or dietary needs.

    • Any specific preferences for the sitter (e.g., experienced with senior pets, no other dogs in home).

  • Our team carefully matches your pet with a sitter from our trusted network.

    What Happens Next:

    • We’ll email you with your sitter match, including their bio, experience, and why they’re the perfect fit.

    Turnaround Time: Matches are typically made within 1-2 business days.


    Need care sooner? We offer same-day matches for an additional fee.

  • We believe trust and connection are key to great pet care. That’s why we offer an optional meet-and-greet with your sitter.

    How It Works:

    • Once we’ve matched you with a sitter, you can schedule an in-person or virtual meeting.

    • Use this time to:

      • Get to know your sitter.

      • Discuss your pet’s specific needs and routine.

      • Address any questions or concerns.

    Why It Matters:

    • Ensures you and your pet feel comfortable before committing.

    • Builds a personal connection between you and your sitter.

  • Once you’ve met your sitter (if opted for) and approved the match:

    • You’ll receive a confirmation email with:

      • Sitter contact details.

      • Drop-off and pick-up instructions.

    Make a Payment:

    • A payment link will be included in your confirmation email.

    • Payment must be completed no later than the day before your pet’s stay begins to secure your booking.

  • During your pet’s stay, our sitters provide regular updates to keep you connected.

    Updates You’ll Receive: Photos, videos, and daily notes about your pet’s activities.
