This business model will fail horribly. Unlike Uber where you provide rides from random people at random locations each time. Dog sitting/walking is a pretty consistent endeavor. Walkers/Sitters will just build up a clientele of about 5-10 consistent dog owners and go to them directly. They bypass the app, removing the fees that they otherwise would have to pay to the company.
