Frequently asked questions
- What is a dog owner exchange?
- A dog owner exchange is an arrangement where dog owners take turns caring for each other's dogs instead of paying for boarding or a sitter. One owner hosts; later the favor is returned.
- Is Pawsada free?
- Joining and creating your profile is free. Pawsada Plus is an optional $99/year membership that unlocks unlimited browsing, messaging, and reviews. Pawsada never charges per-night fees or takes a commission on stays between members.
- Can I use Pawsada instead of boarding?
- Many owners do, for routine trips with a compatible owner they've met and trust. For dogs with complex medical or behavioral needs, professional boarding may still be the better choice in some cases.
- Is reciprocal dog care safe?
- Pawsada gives you tools to make an informed choice — identity verification, member reviews, meet-and-greet checklists, and vet/emergency info storage. You meet the other owner, judge the fit, and decide for yourself. Pawsada does not vet, supervise, or guarantee any member or stay.
