A neighborly way to share dog care
Pawsada gives dog owners the tools to find each other and connect. Everything after that — the meeting, the trust, the arrangement — is entirely in your hands.
- 1
Create your owner and dog profile
Tell the community about you and your dog. Share your general area, the kinds of care you're open to, and what makes your dog, well, your dog. Exact address, phone, and email always stay private.
- 2
Browse nearby dog owners
Search by location, distance, dog size, care type, and availability. See who's nearby and looking to help each other out — no sitters, no agencies, just other owners.
- 3
Message and meet directly
Send a connection request. When it's accepted, messaging opens and you can arrange a meet-and-greet to see if you, your dogs, and your routines are a good fit.
- 4
Independently arrange reciprocal care
You and the other owner decide everything — when, where, how, and whether to help each other at all. Pawsada never assigns anyone, sets terms, or takes part in the arrangement.
- 5
Leave community feedback
After an exchange, you can log it and share honest feedback. Reviews help the community stay welcoming, reliable, and neighborly over time.
Pawsada provides software tools for members to connect. Pawsada does not provide, supervise, or guarantee pet care.
Frequently asked questions

- Does Pawsada provide or arrange dog care?
