What is PetCloud?
PetCloud is Australia's largest and most loved sharing economy booking platform that gives Pet Lovers, the opportunity to safely earn a part time income from home. We offer online training, digital badges, and provide you with liability insurance and with a hosted public listing to showcase what services you offer without revealing your private home address to strangers on the internet.
There are no franchise fees, and so set up costs are practically zero. When you sign up to PetCloud, you remain a subcontractor with an ABN, not a direct employee. In order to offer services through our website, you have to pass a Police check or provide a recent one obtained in the last 12 months, and undergo training. We give you access to a Pet jobs board where you can apply for Pet Job Opportunities. Not all job opportunities are publicly posted by Pet Owners, some Owners will prefer to contact Sitters privately through their listing.
Your aim on PetCloud is to build a recurring repeat base of clients in your local area who book you. The volume of jobs you get on PetCloud depends on:
- Seasonal demand (eg. the leading weeks prior to Easter holidays, June school Holidays, and Christmas Holidays are always large)
- Whether you take the time to upload the right photos to your listing
- What digital badges and verifications you achieve
- How proactive you are in sharing your listing link across facebook groups
- How quickly you respond to clients (in 1hr)
- Your level of communication and professionalism and whether they want to book you again.
- If you are proactive about undergoing training https://www.petcloud.com.au/petcloudacademy
We can't wait to work with you!!! https://www.petcloud.com.au/become-a-pet-sitter
Important: PetCloud is not a once-off lead generation platform, so any Clients who book you, must continue to be booked via PetCloud. Pet Owners must make payment to PetCloud prior to their booking beginning so that their pets are covered by insurance, and so that you are paid in a timely manner at the end of the booking by PetCloud. Important: You need to put aside in your bank account, an excess fee of $2,500 in the event of a successful insurance claim by a Pet Owner for a Pet Accident Vet Emergency bill. Our insurer will payout up to $10 million dollars to cover big pet emergency vet bills.
