Industry overview

Pet care on vServe covers home feeding visits, dog walking, bathing and grooming, overnight boarding and behavior training, with reference prices from 70,000 VND per visit up to 2,000,000 VND for a 5-session training package. Providers are individuals or registered businesses who set their own schedules; vServe only connects and processes payment, it doesn't care for pets directly.

When you need pet care services

People who work full days, travel for a few days, or simply don't have time to bathe their dog or cat often need a home feeding visit (70,000 VND per 30-minute visit) or a midday dog walk (100,000 VND per 30-minute session). When the whole family travels for 2-3 days, overnight boarding at a facility (200,000 VND/night) or an in-home pet sitter (400,000 VND/night) keeps pets in a familiar environment and avoids the stress of moving them.

Choosing between home visits, facility care or overnight boarding

In-home visits suit pets already used to their surroundings and need little travel; at-home bathing at 150,000 VND/session costs more than facility bath-and-dry at 130,000 VND because it includes a travel fee. Grooming, de-matting and artistic styling require specialized equipment, so they're mostly done at the provider's location (at_provider). For elderly or easily-stressed pets, choose the in-home option even if pricier; for thorough grooming of long-haired breeds, pick a facility with a proper bath-and-dry table.

How booking works on vServe

On vServe, customers choose a service by pet type, weight and location (at home or at the provider's facility), see the reference price upfront, pick an available time slot and confirm instantly (instant mode, no need to wait for a separate quote). Payment is processed through the platform, and customers only meet the provider in person when the service is performed. For the 5-session training package (2,000,000 VND), each session is scheduled separately after the package is booked.

Safety notes when letting a stranger care for your pet

vServe verifies the identity of individual providers or businesses through their tax code and business registration certificate when they join the platform, but it doesn't check professional certificates for training or grooming skills. Before letting a stranger into your home to watch your pet overnight (400,000 VND/night), discuss medical history and usual food beforehand, and stay reachable throughout the boarding period.

Behavior training: single sessions or an intensive package

A basic training session at 300,000 VND for 60 minutes suits simple commands like sit, stay, or stop excessive barking. For dogs or cats with serious behavior issues such as biting, destructive chewing, or persistent house-soiling, the 5-session intensive package at 2,000,000 VND lets the trainer track progress and adjust methods across sessions, usually more effective than booking single sessions.

Why prices vary by weight and coat condition

Bathing and grooming prices on vServe are tiered by weight: under 10kg is the most common tier (150,000-250,000 VND/session), while large breeds over 20kg such as Golden Retrievers or Alaskan Malamutes cost more due to double the time and effort (450,000 VND for a 90-minute session). Heavily matted or multi-layered coats require an extra de-matting step (200,000 VND/session) before bathing or trimming, so tell the provider about your pet's coat condition in advance.

Frequently asked questions

How much does home pet care cost?

Home pet care on vServe ranges from 70,000 VND per feeding visit (30 minutes) to 400,000 VND per night for an in-home overnight pet sitter. At-home bathing for pets under 10kg costs 150,000 VND per session, and a 30-minute dog walk costs 100,000 VND per walk. All prices are listed upfront on each service before booking.

Which is safer for overnight boarding: a facility or an in-home sitter?

It depends on your pet's temperament. Facility boarding (200,000 VND/night) suits pets that are comfortable with people and new environments, with staff supervising all day. An in-home overnight sitter (400,000 VND/night) suits shy pets that get stressed by a change of location, since the pet stays in its familiar space and only a caregiver comes to visit.

Does vServe check the skills or certifications of pet care providers?

No. vServe only verifies a provider's identity — individual or business — through their tax code and business registration certificate when they sign up, and doesn't check training certifications, grooming skills, or real-world experience. For important bookings, ask providers directly about their experience and ask to see photos or videos of past work before booking.

How much does grooming a large dog (over 20kg) cost?

Grooming a large breed over 20kg, such as a Golden Retriever, Alaskan Malamute or Samoyed, costs 450,000 VND per session and takes about 90 minutes at the provider's facility. This is more expensive than basic grooming for pets under 10kg (250,000 VND per session) because thick, long coats take significantly more time and effort to handle.

How long does dog or cat training take to show results?

For basic commands like sit, stay, or stopping excessive barking, a single 60-minute session (300,000 VND) can show noticeable progress after a few consecutive sessions. For serious behavior issues like biting, destructive chewing, or long-standing house-soiling, the 5-session intensive package (2,000,000 VND) is recommended so the trainer can track progress and adjust methods over time.

Do I need to pay a deposit when booking on vServe?

Deposit and payment requirements depend on how each service handles payment on the platform at the time of booking; most instant services let you book and pay right when you confirm the schedule, without a separate upfront deposit. Check the payment terms shown on the specific service page before confirming.

Will providers care for pets with allergies or underlying health conditions?

Yes, but you need to disclose your pet's health condition, food allergies, or underlying illnesses when booking overnight boarding or in-home sitting, since vServe doesn't replace a veterinarian and providers aren't medically trained. For pets with serious underlying conditions, a specialized veterinary boarding facility is a better choice than a regular pet care service.

How much does pet pickup and drop-off for grooming cost, and are there extra fees?

Pet pickup and drop-off for grooming or boarding costs 120,000 VND per one-way trip; if you need a return trip after the service, that's charged separately (240,000 VND round trip total). This is a hybrid service where the provider picks up the pet at home and delivers it to the facility, with no extra fees beyond the listed price.
