Why we started this
I started ThePetSwap because every trip brought the same struggle: who will care for our pet? Boarding was pricey, sitters also costly. Then I realized so many pet owners face the same problem. What if we simply helped each other? That’s how ThePetSwap was born — not just an app, but a community built on trust, kindness, and the love we all share for our furry family.
