Owners can list their pets and needed dates. Sitters can post their homes and availability. The system helps them connect directly. Payments will happen through Twitter. Safety checks are part of the process. Both owners and sitters must verify identities. Twitter may also use reviews.
This test is small. Only some users can see it now. Twitter wants feedback before a wider launch. The company sees this as a natural extension. People already discuss pets on the platform daily. Finding care is a common struggle. Twitter aims to solve this problem.
The move puts Twitter against established pet care apps. Apps like Rover already offer similar services. Twitter hopes its large user base gives it an advantage. Users might prefer staying within one app. The service could also attract new users to Twitter.
