What is Pawprint?
Pawprint is a marketplace app where pet owners book local, independent pet care providers: dog walking, pet sitting, boarding, drop-ins, training, and more. Owners are only charged once a provider accepts. Book on iOS, Android, or the web.

Frequently asked questions
What is the Pawprint pet care app?
Pawprint is a marketplace app where pet owners book local, independent pet care providers: dog walking, pet sitting, boarding, drop-ins, training, and more. Learn more about Pawprint.
Can I book pet care without downloading the app?
Yes. Pet owners can book local, independent providers on the web at app.pawprint.company. Pawprint is also available on iOS and Android.
Can I find dog walkers in Charlotte on Pawprint?
Yes. Browse dog walkers in Charlotte, NC, and compare providers and their listed prices. Each provider sets their own price, and owners see the full price before confirming.
How much does Pawprint cost?
Pawprint is free to download, and pet owners never pay a booking or platform fee. Each provider sets their own price, and you always see the full amount before you confirm. Providers pay a small fee on each booking that helps run Pawprint.
How are payments handled, and when am I charged?
Payments run securely through Stripe. Pay with Apple Pay or a card. Requesting a booking doesn't charge you — you're only charged once the provider accepts. If they decline or don't respond in time, you pay nothing. Read about payments, holds, refunds and disputes.
How does Pawprint keep things safe and trustworthy?
Providers verify their government-issued ID through Stripe Identity, and profiles show phone and email verification badges. You're only charged once a provider accepts, completed-service payouts are released after the applicable dispute window, messaging stays on-platform, and you can read reviews, report or block users, and raise a dispute on a completed booking. Identity verification confirms who a provider is — it is not a background check — so always review profiles and reviews and use your own judgment when choosing a provider. Learn more about trust and safety on Pawprint.
What pet services can I book?
Dog walking, pet sitting, boarding, grooming, and more. Book a specific provider's package directly, or post a request describing what you need and let verified providers send you offers. See how booking works, from your request to the end of care.
What if I need to cancel or change my booking?
Check the cancellation deadline and fee shown on your booking before confirming a cancellation. Timed and overnight bookings have different deadlines, and an agreed time change is not a cancellation. Read cancellations and changes for the current rules, grace period and exceptions.
What platforms is Pawprint available on?
Pawprint is available now on both iPhone (iOS 18 or later) on the App Store and Android (8.0 or later) on Google Play. You can also book on the web at app.pawprint.company.
Can I message my provider and track the service?
Yes, chat in real time before, during, and after a service. For dog walks, you can follow the route live on a map and get a distance, duration, and pace recap when it ends. Push notifications keep you posted on messages, acceptances, and check-ins.
How do providers get paid?
Providers connect a bank account through Stripe Connect during onboarding. After completion and the applicable dispute window, eligible payouts (the service price minus platform and processing fees) are released through Stripe. Bank arrival depends on the Stripe payout schedule and the bank. Providers see their fee rate and per-booking payout estimate right in the app.
