🐾Turn your love for animals into a job! Why pet sitters are in high demand in Koto Ward
In recent years, the demand for in-home pet care — which minimizes stress on pets while their owners are away for travel, business trips, or daily work — has been growing rapidly.
Koto Ward in particular encompasses the waterfront area lined with tower condominiums and many neighborhoods popular with families thanks to great transportation access. With a large number of busy dual-income (power couple) households, requests like “I need someone to walk my dog while I’m at work during the day” and “I need someone to check on my cat while I’m on a business trip” make this a super high-demand area where pet sitter bookings are constantly filling up.
If you’re thinking, “I want to help pet owners in my neighborhood who need support” but also “I’m worried about the risks and paperwork of working as an independent sitter…” — don’t worry. With Fluv‘s comprehensive support system and reliable insurance coverage, you can confidently start your career as a professional sitter, even with no prior experience!

🐾What makes us different! Fluv’s 4 support features for peace of mind
At Fluv, we handle all the tedious paperwork and provide comprehensive coverage so sitters can focus entirely on their work.
| Peace of mind feature | Details & highlights |
|---|---|
| Comprehensive training 📚 | We provide professional American-style pet care training! Learn high-quality care skills so you can debut as a confident professional, even with no prior experience. |
| Liability insurance 🛡️ | Coverage for liability in the unlikely event of an accident, pet injury, or escape. The platform fully supports you with consolation payments, initial response costs, and even litigation expenses. |
| Secure payment processing 💰 | All the hassle of payment processing, client communication, and guarantees is handled by Fluv. After completing a service, you receive your payment securely through the app. |

🐾Work within Koto Ward — walk or bike to jobs! Work-style ideas for homemakers
Your workplace is right in Koto Ward, where you already live. You can set your preferred service area down to the detail, so there’s zero stress from long train commutes. Since you’ll be caring for dogs and cats in your neighborhood, you can fit it in alongside errands and school pickups.
| Who it’s for | Work-style example |
|---|---|
| Homemakers 🏠 | Make the most of your free time between school drop-offs and household tasks to work close to home. You can choose to work in just the Toyosu area or only around Kiyosumi-Shirakawa. |
| Remote workers & freelancers 💻 | Perfect as a refreshing break between computer work sessions (like dog walking). |
| Seniors & middle-aged adults 👟 | Turn your daily walks into an opportunity to help local pets while staying healthy and earning extra income. |
You can work at your own pace, with your lifestyle always coming first.
*However, since trust with pet owners is paramount, we are looking for people who “won’t cancel at the last minute or show up late.”
🐾Frequently asked questions
Q1. I don’t have any professional certifications — is that really okay?
A. Yes, absolutely! If you have experience lovingly caring for a dog or cat (daily feeding, litter box cleaning, walks, monitoring their health, etc.), you have what it takes to thrive. Of course, those with certifications such as veterinary nursing, grooming, or pet care — or relevant professional experience — are especially welcome and given priority!
Q2. Are there any registration fees or monthly costs I need to pay?
A. There are no initial fees, registration charges, or annual membership costs whatsoever. Everything from downloading the app to sitter registration, screening, and training is completely free. You can get started with zero financial risk.
Q3. Can I cancel a confirmed booking if something unexpected comes up?
A. You can decline before a match is confirmed, but last-minute cancellations of confirmed bookings are strictly prohibited as a rule. Since cancellations can seriously disrupt a pet owner’s work or travel plans, we ask that only those who can reliably manage their schedule apply.
Q4. How does payment work?
A. After you complete a service, payment is securely processed through Fluv’s system. You can focus entirely on caring for pets without worrying about payment disputes.
Q5. What types of pet care requests are most common?
A. The most common requests are dog walking and caring for cats while their owners are away (feeding, water refills, and litter box cleaning). You’ll only be matched with pets you feel comfortable caring for, so there’s no pressure.
