What you can rely on
waumate shows what is true and protects what is private.
Profiles for members only
Only signed-in members with a confirmed email address see full profiles. Addresses stay private: all anyone sees is the district and a rounded distance.
Reviews after real contact
Only someone who has exchanged messages with the sitter can write a review. So every review tells of a real exchange.
Report and block
In every chat you can report a conversation or block the person. Reports come straight to us.
Clear information
A first aid course, a certificate of competence or liability insurance are marked as the sitter's own statements.
