Terms of Service

Last updated: April 3, 2026

Welcome to Pawprint. These Terms of Service ("Terms") govern your use of the Pawprint mobile application and related services (the "Service") operated by Osprey Technology LLC ("we," "our," or "us"). By accessing or using the Service, you agree to be bound by these Terms. If you do not agree, please do not use the Service.

1. Description of Service

Pawprint is a marketplace that connects pet owners ("Customers") with pet service providers ("Providers"). Services offered through the platform may include dog walking, pet sitting, grooming, boarding, daycare, and other pet care services. Pawprint acts as a platform to facilitate these connections and does not itself provide pet care services.

2. Eligibility and Accounts

You must be at least 18 years old to create an account and use the Service. You are responsible for maintaining the confidentiality of your account credentials and for all activity that occurs under your account. You agree to provide accurate and complete information when creating your account and to keep your information up to date.

3. Customer Responsibilities

As a Customer, you agree to:

  • Provide accurate information about your pets, including any health conditions, behavioral issues, or special needs
  • Ensure your pets are up to date on vaccinations as required by your local jurisdiction
  • Treat Providers with respect and communicate clearly about your expectations
  • Pay for services in full through the platform
  • Leave honest and fair reviews based on your actual experience

4. Provider Responsibilities

As a Provider, you agree to:

  • Complete the identity verification process during onboarding
  • Provide services as described in your listings and as agreed upon during booking
  • Maintain appropriate qualifications, insurance, and licenses as required by your local jurisdiction
  • Communicate promptly with Customers about bookings, changes, or concerns
  • Treat all animals in your care with kindness and professionalism
  • Report any incidents, injuries, or concerns to both the Customer and Pawprint promptly

Providers are independent contractors and not employees of Pawprint. You are solely responsible for your own tax obligations, insurance, and compliance with applicable laws.

5. Animal Welfare and Provider Liability

Providers who offer pet care services through Pawprint assume full and sole responsibility for the safety, health, and welfare of any animal entrusted to their care during the performance of services. This includes, without limitation, responsibility for proper supervision, safe handling, appropriate containment, and prompt veterinary attention if needed. Providers agree to maintain any insurance, licenses, or certifications required by applicable law for the services they offer. In the event of injury, illness, death, escape, loss, or any other harm to an animal during or resulting from services arranged through the Platform, the Provider bears sole liability. Pawprint does not supervise, direct, or control the performance of services and assumes no responsibility for the actions or omissions of Providers.

Providers are solely responsible and liable for any injury, damage, or harm caused by an animal in their care to any third party, including but not limited to other people, other animals, or property. This includes incidents occurring during walks, transportation, outdoor activities, or any other situation in which the Provider has custody or control of the animal. Providers are strongly encouraged to carry appropriate liability insurance to cover such incidents.

Providers acknowledge that pet care services involve inherent risks to their own personal safety, including but not limited to bites, scratches, allergic reactions, falls, and other physical injuries. Providers assume full responsibility for their own health and safety while performing services. Pawprint and Osprey Technology LLC are not responsible for any injuries, illness, or harm sustained by Providers during the course of providing services arranged through the Platform. Providers are encouraged to carry appropriate personal and health insurance coverage.

6. Pet Owner Assumption of Risk

By booking services through Pawprint, pet owners acknowledge and accept the inherent risks involved in entrusting their animals to third-party service providers, including but not limited to risks of injury, illness, escape, behavioral incidents, and interactions with other animals. Pet owners agree to provide accurate and complete information about their pets, including health conditions, behavioral tendencies, dietary needs, and any known aggression or anxiety. Pet owners acknowledge that Pawprint is a technology platform that facilitates connections between pet owners and independent service providers and that Pawprint does not guarantee, warrant, or ensure the quality, safety, or outcome of any services. Any claims, disputes, or legal actions related to the care, injury, loss, or death of an animal must be directed solely at the service provider and not at Pawprint, Osprey Technology LLC, or any of its affiliates, officers, employees, or agents.

7. Pet Vaccination Requirements

Owner Certification

By using the Pawprint platform, pet owners certify and represent that:

  • All pets registered on the platform are current on rabies vaccination as required by applicable state and local laws
  • All vaccination records uploaded to the platform are authentic, accurate, and current
  • The owner will maintain current vaccinations for the duration of any active bookings or service engagements

Vaccination Liability

Pet owners assume full responsibility and liability for any incidents, injuries, bites, or health-related events arising from failure to maintain required vaccinations. Pet owners agree to indemnify and hold harmless Pawprint, Osprey Technology LLC, and any service providers from claims, damages, or expenses resulting from unvaccinated or inadequately vaccinated pets. If a service provider requires vaccination records as a condition of service, the owner is responsible for providing accurate and current documentation prior to the scheduled service.

Consequences of Misrepresentation

Providing false or fraudulent vaccination records may result in immediate account suspension or termination. Pawprint reserves the right to verify vaccination records and to suspend bookings if records are found to be invalid, expired, or fraudulent.

Provider Vaccination Record Policies

Service providers may require vaccination records as a condition of accepting bookings. Providers who disable the vaccination record requirement acknowledge and accept the associated risks. Pawprint does not independently verify the authenticity of vaccination records, and providers are encouraged to review all submitted records.

8. Payments and Fees

All payments are processed securely through Stripe. Key payment terms:

  • Payment Hold: When a Customer books a service, their payment is authorized and held. The payment is only captured (charged) when the service is marked as complete.
  • Platform Fee: Pawprint charges a 15% platform fee on each transaction, deducted from the Provider's payout. This fee covers payment processing, platform maintenance, and customer support.
  • Provider Payouts: Providers receive payments directly to their connected bank account via Stripe, minus the platform fee. Payout timing is subject to Stripe's processing schedule.
  • Accepted Methods: We accept Apple Pay and major credit and debit cards through Stripe.

9. Cancellation Policy

Cancellation terms are as follows:

  • Customer Cancellation: Customers may cancel a booking free of charge up to 24 hours before the scheduled service. Cancellations made less than 24 hours in advance may be subject to a cancellation fee.
  • Provider Cancellation: Providers should avoid cancelling confirmed bookings. Repeated cancellations may result in reduced visibility on the platform or account suspension.
  • Refunds: If a service is not completed as described, Customers may request a refund by contacting us at support@pawprint.company. We will review each case and issue refunds at our discretion.

10. Prohibited Conduct

You agree not to:

  • Use the Service for any unlawful purpose
  • Arrange payments outside of the Pawprint platform to circumvent fees
  • Create fake accounts, reviews, or listings
  • Harass, threaten, or discriminate against other users
  • Misrepresent your qualifications, identity, or services
  • Attempt to reverse engineer, decompile, or disrupt the Service
  • Scrape, crawl, or collect data from the Service without authorization
  • Use the Service to promote unrelated products or services

11. Limitation of Liability

Pawprint is a marketplace platform that facilitates connections between Customers and Providers. We do not guarantee the quality, safety, or legality of services offered by Providers. To the fullest extent permitted by law:

  • Pawprint is not liable for any injuries, damages, or losses arising from services arranged through the platform
  • We are not responsible for the actions, omissions, or conduct of any Customer or Provider
  • Our total liability to you shall not exceed the amount you paid to Pawprint in the 12 months preceding the claim
  • We are not liable for any indirect, incidental, consequential, or punitive damages

The Service is provided "as is" and "as available" without warranties of any kind, whether express or implied.

12. Indemnification

You agree to indemnify, defend, and hold harmless Osprey Technology LLC, its officers, directors, employees, agents, and affiliates ("Pawprint Parties") from and against any and all claims, demands, suits, actions, losses, liabilities, damages, costs, and expenses (including reasonable attorneys' fees) arising out of or related to: (a) your use of the Platform; (b) your violation of these Terms; (c) your interactions with other users, including any services provided or received through the Platform; (d) any dispute between you and another user; (e) your negligence, willful misconduct, or violation of any applicable law; or (f) any injury, illness, death, loss, or damage to any person, pet, or property arising from services arranged through the Platform. This indemnification obligation survives termination of your account and these Terms.

13. Dispute Resolution

If a dispute arises between a Customer and Provider, we encourage both parties to first attempt to resolve it through direct communication. If a resolution cannot be reached, either party may contact Pawprint at support@pawprint.company for mediation assistance.

For disputes between you and Pawprint, you agree to first attempt to resolve the matter informally by contacting us. If informal resolution is not possible, any legal claims shall be resolved through binding arbitration, except where prohibited by law.

14. Intellectual Property

The Pawprint name, logo, and all related branding, design elements, and content are the intellectual property of Osprey Technology LLC. You may not use our trademarks, logos, or branding without prior written consent. Content you upload to the Service (such as profile photos or reviews) remains yours, but you grant us a non-exclusive license to display it within the platform.

15. Termination

We reserve the right to suspend or terminate your account at any time, with or without notice, for violations of these Terms or for any conduct that we determine, in our sole discretion, is harmful to the platform, other users, or animals. You may also delete your account at any time by contacting us.

Upon termination, your right to use the Service ceases immediately. Any outstanding payments owed to Providers will still be processed.

16. Governing Law

These Terms shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of North Carolina, United States, without regard to its conflict of law provisions. Any legal proceedings arising from these Terms shall be brought in the courts located in North Carolina.

17. Changes to These Terms

We may update these Terms from time to time. We will notify you of material changes by posting the updated Terms within the app and updating the "Last updated" date. Your continued use of the Service after changes are posted constitutes your acceptance of the revised Terms.
