What life on Pawsada looks like

Illustrative member stories — real ones will appear here as Nashville fills in.

  • Two trips this year and my dog never set foot in a kennel — she stayed with a friend down the street. I genuinely don't know how we did it before.

  • I started hosting on weekends and now my own travel is basically covered by PawPoints. The people I've met are the real bonus.

  • Having every vaccination record and care note in one place I can hand to a sitter took a whole layer of stress out of leaving town.

Frequently asked questions

Is it free to start?
Yes — create an account and your dog's Pawsport in minutes, with no sign-up fees. Membership ($99/year or $12.99/month) comes in when you're ready to host and request stays.
How do I save on boarding?
You host other members' dogs to earn PawPoints, then spend them when your dog needs a stay. Care is traded between members — never paid per night — so your dog stays in a home, not a kennel.
Is it safe?
Pawsada is members-only and verified. Everyone meets first, every dog has a Pawsport, and stays are logged and reviewed — so you're trusting a neighbor, not a stranger.
What if I just want to explore?
Join free, build your dog's Pawsport, browse hosts, and discover dog-friendly places near you — no pressure to host or upgrade until it's useful to you.
