Beyond the Gig Economy
Pet care isn't about finding someone. It's about trusting the right person.
For years, pet care platforms treated caregivers as interchangeable—whoever was closest, cheapest, or available first. That works for rides and food delivery, but it breaks down when what you're trusting is your pet.
That's why we built Tails.
Tails helps pet parents find the right dog walker or pet sitter—without endless scrolling. Instead of comparing dozens of profiles, your pet is matched with caregivers who've already cared for pets with the same needs, and we show you why they're a good fit. The result is less guessing and more confidence every time you book.
We also believe great care starts with happy caregivers. That's why Tails providers keep 90% of what they earn—nearly double the industry standard. It allows us to attract experienced, professional caregivers across Chicago, from Lincoln Park and West Loop to Bucktown and River North.
Pet care is a trust problem, not a discovery problem.
Tails is how we move beyond the endless scroll—and back to care you can feel good about.
