Nuzzo vs Pet Sitter Plus

Pet Sitter Plus is an established pet sitting tool with GPS check-ins, QuickBooks Online sync and staff pay built in. Nuzzo is a newer, phone-first alternative with one flat price per team and a tighter scope. Here's the honest breakdown so you can pick what fits.

Pick Nuzzo if…

  • You want phone-first simplicity — your day lives in the app.
  • You want one flat price for a team of up to five, not a per-staff fee.
  • You care about the pet parent experience (photo reports, magic-link portal).
  • You'd rather have a tight, opinionated workflow than every knob and dial.
  • You're in your first few years and still figuring out what you need.

Pick Pet Sitter Plus if…

  • You're already on it and your workflow is locked in.
  • You need GPS check-in and check-out on visits.

Where Pet Sitter Plus genuinely wins

We want you to pick the right tool, not just pick us. Here's where Pet Sitter Plus is ahead today:

  • GPS check-in and check-out

    Visits are checked in and out with GPS. Nuzzo records start and end times but has no GPS.

  • Accounting and staff pay

    QuickBooks Online sync and staff pay calculation are built in. Nuzzo exports a QuickBooks-ready CSV and has no staff pay report.

  • Bigger teams

    Their Team plan covers 2 to 25 staff, with Enterprise above that. Nuzzo Team covers the owner plus five workers.

  • Longer trial and free migration

    A 30-day free trial with no card and no setup fee, and they migrate your data for free.

Where Nuzzo wins

  • Mobile experience

    The field UI is built for the thumb, not the mouse. Two taps to start a visit, two to send a report card.

  • Team pricing

    $79/mo covers the owner plus up to five workers. On Pet Sitter Plus Team, five staff come to $89/mo ($24 plus 5 x $13).

  • Pet parent experience

    Magic-link portal (no passwords), inline photo grids in report cards, a live-feed mode for overnights. Clients actually open Nuzzo emails.

  • Setup speed

    A four-step wizard gets you to your first real invoice in minutes.

  • Unlimited clients and pets

    The busy solo with 30 regulars pays the same $29/mo as the sitter with 5.

Moving from Pet Sitter Plus

  1. 1. Export clients + pets from PSP. Use their data export, or ask their support for one.
  2. 2. Start your Nuzzo trial — no card required.
  3. 3. Send me your PSP export via the contact form (mention PSP migration in the message; you can email the CSV to hello@nuzzo.pet after I reply). I'll import your clients + pets directly into your account — white-glove for early customers. Self-serve CSV import is on the roadmap.
  4. 4. Run parallel for a week. New clients go through Nuzzo; finish anything in progress on PSP.
  5. 5. Flip fully at the end of your invoice cycle. Cancel PSP.

Most owners run parallel for a billing cycle. Zero lost data.

Nuzzo vs Pet Sitter Plus: common questions

How does Nuzzo's pricing compare with Pet Sitter Plus?

Pet Sitter Plus prices by staff, not by clients. Solo is $30 a month, and Team is $24 a month plus $13 per active staff member, for 2 to 25 staff. Nuzzo is $29 a month solo and $79 for the owner plus up to five workers. Working alone, the two are a dollar apart. With five staff, Pet Sitter Plus comes to $89 a month against Nuzzo's $79. On Nuzzo, the number of clients and pets never changes the bill.

Is there a limit on how many clients or pets I can add?

No. Clients and pets are unlimited on both plans. The only thing the plan sets is how many people work in the account: Solo is just you, Team covers up to five, and anything larger we arrange directly.

What does Pet Sitter Plus do that Nuzzo does not?

It has GPS check in and check out, QuickBooks Online sync and staff pay calculation, none of which Nuzzo has. Nuzzo also has no SMS. Its Team plan also scales to 25 staff, past Nuzzo Team's limit of the owner plus five. If any of those matter, Pet Sitter Plus is the safer pick.
