    Before using the Platform and agreeing on the terms of Sitting, each Consumer is required to independently verify that their activities comply with all applicable legal norms and requirements established by the current legislation of the country in which the Sitting is provided.
    Key Terms of Sitting

    The Sitter's responsibilities may include providing Sitting according to the provided instructions, adhering to the conditions of residence in the House, using its resources only within the agreed terms, and maintaining the House in proper condition. The Owner’s responsibilities include providing complete and accurate information about the Pets, ensuring access to the House, and creating appropriate conditions for the Sitting to be performed.

    The Owner is responsible for providing accurate information, creating suitable conditions for Sitting, and ensuring the possibility of its proper execution.

The Owner also guarantees that they have legal grounds for granting access to the House to a third party and comply with all applicable regulations governing such relations.
    The Pets left under the Sitter’s supervision must not pose a danger to the Sitter or third parties. The Owner must provide the necessary means for Sitting, including food, medication, accessories, and other resources aimed at ensuring the proper Sitting and well-being of the Pets. During the entire Sitting Period, the Owner must remain in contact with the Sitter and provide necessary support in case of any issues or unforeseen situations.
    Sitter's Responsibilities
    The Sitter agrees to provide Sitting responsibly, adhering to the agreed terms and ensuring the well-being of the Pets throughout the entire Period.
    The Sitter must comply with all agreed-upon Sitting rules, including regular feeding, ensuring access to water, proper walking (if applicable), and monitoring the Pets’ health. The Sitter must treat the Pets humanely, avoid any actions that could harm them, and not leave them unattended in situations that could pose a danger.
    In addition to caring for the Pets, the Sitter must treat the House with Sitting, comply with the established rules for its use, and avoid causing damage to the Owner’s House. In the event of a sudden deterioration in the Pets' health, the Sitter must immediately notify the Owner and, if necessary, consult a veterinarian.
    Throughout the entire Sitting Period, the Sitter must maintain communication with the Owner, promptly respond to inquiries, and provide current information regarding the Pets' condition.

    Owner's Actions
    The Owner, who transfers their House and/or Pets for temporary Sitting by the Sitter, is obligated to:

  • 6. Subscription and Payment
    The Subscription is a condition for accessing the full functionality of the Platform and grants Consumers the right to use its services for 12 months from the payment date. By subscribing, the Consumer agrees to these Terms, including provisions on payment, automatic renewal, and cancellation options.
    The Subscription is paid in advance (prepaid) and covers a 12-month access period to the Platform. All payments are processed through accredited third-party payment service providers, in accordance with their terms and privacy policies.
    The Consumer is required to use a valid, current, and authorized Payment Method for the Subscription payment. If the payment cannot be processed due to reasons beyond the Company’s control (e.g., insufficient funds, refusal by the issuing bank, technical limitations of the payment provider), the Company reserves the right to temporarily suspend the Consumer’s access to the full functionality of the Platform until proper payment is received.
    THE COMPANY IS NOT RESPONSIBLE FOR ANY POSSIBLE DAMAGES TO THE CONSUMER ARISING FROM SUCH ACCESS LIMITATIONS.
    Automatic Subscription Renewal
    The Subscription is for a fixed period (12 months) and is automatically renewable. At the end of the paid period, the Subscription is automatically extended for the same period, with the corresponding amount being charged to the Consumer's Payment Method.
    Before the renewal, the Consumer will receive an electronic notification or Platform notification with information about the next payment date. If the Consumer does not wish to continue the Subscription, they can disable automatic renewal in the Account Settings. Disabling automatic renewal must be done before the next payment date; otherwise, the charge for the next period will be made.
    Subscription Cancellation
    The Consumer may cancel the Subscription at any time via the Account Settings. Cancellation means that automatic renewal will be stopped after the paid period ends.
    Paid fees are non-refundable, except in cases provided by applicable law or these Terms. Upon cancellation of the Subscription, the Consumer can continue using the Platform until the end of the already paid period.
    If the Consumer has an active Subscription, its cancellation does not imply immediate restriction of access to the full functionality of the Platform – it will remain active until the end of the paid term.
    Subscription Plans for Consumers
    Plans for Sitters
    Sitters can choose from several Subscription Plans that provide access to the extended functionality of the Platform.
    The Basic Plan allows Sitters to contact an unlimited number of Owners and book Sitting for 12 months.
    The Premium Plan, in addition to the Basic Plan functionality, provides early access to new listings 24 hours before other Consumers, personalized notifications about Sittings matching the Sitters' preferences, and access to online consultations with the Platform’s veterinary partners.
    The Maximum Plan includes all the benefits of the Premium Plan along with additional advantages. Specifically, Sitters can receive travel insurance consultations, gain one-time access to an airport lounge before their first Sitting-related flight (subject to a request to the support service at least 30 days before the flight date; access depends on availability and is not guaranteed), and receive personalized support for their first Sitting booking. Personalized support is for informational purposes only and does not guarantee a successful booking or that it will meet the Sitters' expectations.
    Plans for Owners
    Owners can choose from several Subscription Plans that offer different levels of Platform functionality.
    The Free Plan allows Owners to post an unlimited number of Sitting requests and contact verified Sitters for 12 months.
    The Standard Plan provides enhanced visibility of requests through the Platform’s social media in case of an urgent Sitter search. The publication of such requests is at the discretion of the Platform and does not guarantee results. Additionally, Owners may receive notifications about available Sitters who meet their criteria (a functional feature of the Platform).
    The Premium Plan includes all the features of the Standard Plan and additional services. Owners can access online consultations with veterinary partners, receive consultations on Property, Pet, and personal safety insurance while traveling, and gain one-time access to an airport lounge after hiring their first Sitter. The request must be made at least 30 days before the trip. Access to the lounge is subject to availability and is not guaranteed.
    Additional Services and Their Limitations
    The cost of each Subscription plan is provided to the Consumer directly before the Subscription is confirmed.
    Some Subscription Plans include access to additional services, such as online consultations with veterinary partners, one-time access to an airport lounge, and insurance consultations. All these services are provided for informational purposes only and are not guaranteed.
    Online consultations with veterinary partners do not replace visits to a local veterinarian in urgent situations. Access to the airport lounge is only available once and depends on the availability of space in partner lounges. Insurance consultations are purely informational and do not constitute a recommendation or guarantee of insurance coverage.
    Subscription Cost and Rate Changes
    The Company reserves the right to change the cost of the Subscription. In the event of a rate change, the Consumer will be notified at least 30 calendar days before the next payment date. If the Consumer does not agree with the new terms, they may cancel the Subscription before the end of the current billing period.
    Payment for the Subscription is made in the currency specified during the subscription process and may include taxes or fees imposed by the payment systems, which are the responsibility of the Consumer.
    Right to Cancel
    The Consumer has the right to cancel the Subscription within 14 days from its activation without providing any reasons, provided they have not yet started using the Platform's functionality.
    If the Consumer has started using the paid functionality of the Platform (e.g., made a Communication, viewed profiles, or accessed services), the right to a free cancellation of the Subscription is forfeited.
    To exercise the right to cancel, the Consumer must submit a request through customer support, indicating their desire to cancel the Subscription.
    Disputing Unauthorized Payments
    If the Consumer believes that funds were charged in error or without their authorization, they have the right to submit a request to customer support to investigate the circumstances of the transaction.
    If an error is confirmed, the funds will be refunded within 14 working days. If the transaction was made in violation of these Terms or due to fraudulent actions by the Consumer, a refund will not be issued.
