@ThePetProfessor ThePetProfessor And our membership is a passport.
( What is the booking fee?
Each time a sit is confirmed, a booking fee is applied. This is paid for by both the owner and sitter and helps to fund the services behind each sit and encourage commitment from both sides.
This fee is separate from your annual membership, which gives you access to our trusted community, member support, and verified platform features - your passport into the community.
Think of the booking fee as your boarding pass for each sit. A simple, transparent way to help keep everything running smoothly for everyone involved.
The booking fee and membership fee together make up the total sum you pay for joining and enjoying the TrustedHousesitters community and platform.
Trusted tip: If you love travelling or welcoming sitters often, our premium membership keeps things simple, no booking fees, just seamless, worry-free sits. You can upgrade your plan anytime from your account.)
