Be seen, and paid, for what you bring.

At a humane society booth recently, we got talking with a volunteer about how askKynos matches pets with sitters. Fit first. Distance second.

They lit up. They were a five-star sitter on another platform, and it just wasn’t working for them. When we explained it would cost them nothing to try askKynos, they were in.

That moment is what Fast-Track is for.

Great sitters aren’t short on skill. They’re short on being seen, and on being paid for it.

Your stars are not a formality.

They’re years of early mornings, careful handoffs and pets who settled because you were there. The senior dog who takes his pills in his prescription soft food. The rescue who won’t eat for anyone else.

That’s what you bring to the table. It should count from day one.

So we don’t make you start over.

If you have a 4.8+ rating on an established platform that runs its own background checks, Fast-Track is your way in.

Send us your profile link or a screenshot, plus a copy of a valid driver’s license. Your license is used only to confirm you’re the person behind that profile, then deleted. We don’t keep it. Our team reviews it personally instead of running a new Checkr check, and you’ll hear back within 6 hours. Your outside reviews are used only to verify and approve you. They never appear on your askKynos profile.

Free to download. New sitters pay a one-time $35 onboarding fee for their background check. Experienced sitters approved through Fast-Track pay nothing.

Trying askKynos costs you nothing.

Get paid for your experience.

You set your prices. You keep 85% of every booking. You’re paid 48 hours after each booking completes.

And your experience is what gets you booked. Smart Match looks at the pet first (temperament, health needs, medications, routines, fears) and then at what you’re great at. The medication cases. The seniors. The anxious ones.

No one can pay to rank higher. Not sitters, not anyone. The right pets find you because of what you know.

Keep everything that already works.

askKynos is non-exclusive. Keep your other platforms and add us alongside them.

Bring your regulars, too. Their pet’s story comes with them and carries across every booking, so you never have to re-explain a pet you already know. They also get the askKynos Vet Assistant free, working from that same history.

Be one of the first 1,000.

We want the best sitters first, because the first 1,000 set the standard for everyone who follows. The Founding Sitter Pledge is open to them, then closes for good.

The badge is permanent. It carries zero weight in Smart Match. It’s earned, not bought.

And for pet parents.

Fast-Track changes how an experienced sitter is verified, not whether they are. Every sitter is background-checked or verified through Fast-Track before they're matched with your pet, and every sitter carries their own insurance.

It’s how we make askKynos Founding Sitters the best of the best.

Trusted pet care starts with understanding.

You already understand the pets in your care. Come get paid for it.
