How Zauffy works
Find a verified pet host in 3 simple steps.
1
Tell us about your pet
Select your pet type, pick dates, and browse verified hosts near you. See photos, reviews, and prices upfront.
2
Request a host
Pick dates, send your request, and connect with your host. No hidden fees — the price you see is the price you pay.

Relax with updates
Receive real-time photo updates throughout the stay. Chat with your host anytime. Know your pet is happy, safe, and cared for.
KYC-verified, personally screened
How we vet every host
Not everyone can become a Zauffy host. Every host passes a 4-step vetting process before they can accept their first booking, and gets re-reviewed after every stay.
01
Government ID verification
Every host verifies their identity through DigiLocker before their profile goes live. No exceptions.
02
1:1 personal screening
Our team conducts a personal screening call with every host during onboarding. We assess their experience, living situation, and commitment to pet care.
03
Home environment review
Hosts submit photos and videos of their home before they can accept bookings. For select hosts, we conduct in-person home visits.
04
Ongoing quality monitoring
We monitor response times, update quality, and parent feedback after every stay. Hosts that don't meet our standards are suspended.
Everything you need for peace of mind
Built-in features that WhatsApp groups and kennels simply can't provide.
KYC-verified hosts only
Every host passes government Aadhaar (DigiLocker) verification, a 1:1 screening call with our team, and a home environment review before they can accept a single booking.
Real-time photo updates
Get timestamped in-app photo updates during every stay. See what your pet is up to, no guesswork.
Home stays, not kennels
Your pet stays in a family home with personal attention. Less stress, more love. Proven to be better for pets than commercial boarding.
In-app chat & support
Chat directly with your host inside the app. Plus Zauffy's support team is always available if you need help during a stay.
Organised bookings
Every booking is tracked with dates, photos, and payment history. No lost WhatsApp threads. Everything in one place, forever.
Secure escrow payments
Your payment is held by Zauffy until the stay starts. No direct cash, no disputes over money. Refunds are handled by the platform, not between you and the host.
How do you usually leave your pet when you travel?
Most pet parents rely on friends or strangers found online. Here's what you get with Zauffy instead.
