What’s New on Global Pet Sitter (and What’s Coming Next)

Over the holidays, we focused on two things:

  1. Listening to your feedback
  2. Turning it into real improvements

Here’s what’s live today—and what’s coming soon.

What’s New Today

🎨 A Fresh Look

We refined the landing page with custom illustrations and clearer copy to highlight what makes Global Pet Sitter different. The goal wasn’t a full redesign—it was clarity.

🗺️ Find Sitters on a Map

One of your most-requested features is here! You can now:

  • Browse sitters on an interactive map
  • View listings and the map side-by-side
  • Search anywhere in the world
  • Filter by continent for global travelers

👥 Be Both a Sitter and an Owner

Many of you asked:

“Can I be both a sitter and a homeowner?”

Now you can. One account, one price, and the freedom to switch roles anytime—no extra fees, no friction.
