booking in three steps.
Create Your Profile
Sign up, verify your qualifications, and tell us about your experience and the services you'd like to offer.
Get Matched
We pair you with pet owners in your area based on your skills, availability, and the care their pets need.
Do What You Love
Show up, be brilliant, get paid. We handle the bookings, payments, and admin so you can focus on the animals.
A platform designed around
your expertise.
Earn on your terms.
No rotas. No on-call. No asking permission. You pick the jobs, set the hours and name your rates. Imagine getting paid to spend a whole weekend with a labrador who thinks you're the greatest human alive.
Even one booking a week puts your qualification to work and your bank account in a considerably better mood.


Use every skill you have.
Post-op recovery, medication schedules, behavioural observation — this isn't just pet sitting, it's professional-grade care in the comfort of their own home.
Lapdog exists because we'd rather have someone who can spot early signs of distress and give incredible belly rubs.
Do what you love, love what you do.
Remember why you became a vet nurse in the first place? That feeling when an anxious pet finally relaxes in your hands, or an owner tears up because you genuinely care.
Lapdog focuses on the parts of the job you love the most. It's just you, a pet who needs your expertise, and the deep satisfaction of doing what you're brilliant at, all on your terms.


We've got your back.
We handle bookings, payments and finding clients, meaning you can focus on the part you're best at — the animals. You're the talent, we're the infrastructure.
The Lapdog app lets you manage your profile, your bookings and your rates at any time.
We know you might
have questions.
Every concern is valid. Here's our honest take.
You pick the jobs and set the hours based on your availability. The Lapdog platform is designed to work around the life and schedule you already have.
Pet sitting is what your neighbour's teenager does. You're a qualified nurse providing professional-grade care: medication management, post-op monitoring, behavioural assessment. Your expertise is what sets Lapdog apart.
We ensure every pet owner provides up-to-date emergency contact information, and your clinical training gives owners extra peace of mind. In addition, Lapdog requires all providers to hold appropriate public liability insurance, and our platform support team has your back in case of a tricky situation.
You set your own pricing based on the services you want to provide. Overnight stays, specialist post-op care and additional services can all be priced differently. Your qualification is your pricing power, and Lapdog makes sure customers know they're paying for expertise.
Built around providers,
not around anyone.
Lapdog is more than a pet-sitting app, it's a platform built around qualified veterinary professionals. We believe pets deserve clinical-grade care even when they're not at the clinic.
Insurance Required
We require all providers to hold public liability insurance appropriate for the services they offer, giving pet owners confidence in your professionalism.
Simple, Reliable Payments
No chasing invoices. Payments are handled through the platform, so you get paid for the work you do on time, every time.
No Marketing Required
While you focus on the animals, we'll match you with pet owners based on your skills and location.
Support That Gets It
