How do refunds work if plans change?

Refund eligibility depends on when you cancel relative to the booking start date and the sitter's cancellation policy.

Cancellation policy types

Each sitter selects a cancellation policy when they set up their profile. The policy is shown during the booking flow before you pay.

Flexible: Full refund if cancelled at least 24 hours before the stay starts.

Moderate: Full refund if cancelled 5 or more days before start; 50% refund if cancelled within 5 days.

Strict: 50% refund if cancelled 7 or more days before start; no refund if cancelled within 7 days.

How to request a refund

If you believe you are entitled to a refund:

  1. Cancel the booking through your bookings dashboard.
  2. The refund is processed automatically based on the policy.
  3. Refunds take 5–10 business days to appear on your statement, depending on your card provider.

Disputes

If you believe the refund amount is incorrect, or if you need to report a service quality issue, contact support through the platform.
