Our Vetting Process
How do we Vet our Pet Sitters
At Petsity, your pet’s safety isn’t just important; it’s our top priority. That’s why every sitter and pet care professional goes through a carefully designed, multi-step vetting process before they’re approved to accept bookings across Canada.
Find a SitterIdentity & Background Verification
Government-issued ID verification before accepting bookings. Every sitter must verify their identity and pass a background screening process that screens candidates’ records with RCMP’s database. This ensures you’re connecting with trusted, verified individuals in your local community.
Admin Approval
Be approved by our team via call. We go beyond automated checks; the Petsity team personally reviews every sitter. This layer helps us ensure every sitter meets our quality, care, and trust standards.
Experience, Certifications & Safety Readiness
We verify that sitters are prepared to handle real-life pet care situations, assess their relevant pet care experience, and certifications. Emergency preparedness and pet safety knowledge, insurance, and other declarations.
