How it works
Tinies is a marketplace. We connect pet owners with independent service providers, and adopters with rescue organisations and transport providers. We don't walk dogs, sit pets, or run adoptions ourselves — we provide the platform, handle payment, and take a small commission so we can fund rescue animal care.
For pet owners
Book trusted care in a few clicks.
- Step 1
Search verified providers
Find independent carers near you by service type, location, and availability. Every provider is ID-verified and reviewed. Tinies lists them; they provide the care.
- Step 2
Book securely
Pay with card through Tinies. Payment is only captured when your provider accepts. Cancel for free if plans change before acceptance.
- Step 3
Get updates
Receive photo and message updates during the booking. For walks, track the route in real time if the carer has started the walk.
- Step 4
Leave reviews
After the stay, leave a star rating and review to help other owners and build your carer's reputation.
For adopters
Rescue organisations list animals available for adoption. Transport providers offer their logistics services. You browse, apply, and connect — all through Tinies. We provide the platform and payment; rescues and transport providers run their side. Think of it like Airbnb: we don't own the homes.
- Step 1
Browse animals
Explore adoptable dogs and cats listed by rescue organisations on Tinies. Filter by species, age, and destination country.
- Step 2
Apply
Submit an application with your home situation, experience, and vet reference. The rescue reviews and approves — they run their own adoption process.
- Step 3
Rescue and transport handle logistics
The rescue and transport providers handle vet prep, vaccinations, microchip, EU pet passport, and transport. Tinies gives you the platform to connect and pay; they do the coordination.
- Step 4
Track progress
Follow each step in your dashboard — from vet completion to transport booked to departure and arrival.
- Step 5
Welcome your tiny home
