Sound Familiar?

Finding reliable childcare shouldn't feel like a second job.

$

"I'm paying $40/month just to browse sitters"

Care.com charges $43/month even before you book anyone. That's $516/year for the privilege of searching.

?

"I can't tell who's actually trustworthy"

Unverified profiles, fake reviews, and no real accountability. You're left guessing who you can trust with your kids.

~

"I messaged 10 sitters and heard back from 2"

Outdated profiles, inactive accounts, and sitters who ghost. You waste hours on people who never respond.

There's a better way.

SitterUs was built by parents who were tired of the same problems. No subscriptions. Verified caregivers. Instant booking.

Loved by Families & Sitters

"After paying Care.com $40/month for two years and barely using it, switching to SitterUs was a no-brainer. Found an amazing sitter on day one."

"I made $2,400 last month on SitterUs and kept every penny. Rover was taking 20% of my pet-sitting income. Never going back."
