4. Dog Walking Service.


4.1. General.  Swifto offers a dog waking service ("Dog Walking Service") whereby Seekers (defined below) may, at any time, use the Site to quickly, effectively and inexpensively request and obtain the services of a Dog Walker (defined below).  "Seeker" means any registered Site user that participates in the Dog Walking Service to requests and/or obtain the services of a Dog Walker.  "Dog Walker" means any registered Site user that participates in the Dog Walking Service and responds to and/or provides dog walking services to Seekers. 

 

4.2. Dog Walking Fee

If you are a Seeker, then in order to request and obtain the services of a Dog Walker, you must prepay Swifto the Dog Walking Fee (defined below) for each separate time that you receive the services of a Dog Walker (each an "Individual Walk").  The Dog Walking Fee must be paid with a valid credit card, and is non-refundable (except in accordance with Section 4.4 (entitled 'Refunds') below).  "Dog Walking Fee" means the greater of (i) the amount displayed on the Site for the Individual Walk with respect to the duration of the walk and the number of participating dogs; or (ii) the amount that is quoted by a Dog Walker (less the Swifto Commission, which is defined below) for the Individual Walk with respect to the duration of the walk and the number of participating dogs.

 

4.3. Payments to the Dog Walker. 

(a) If you are a Dog Walker, and you respond to a request for Dog Walking Services by a Seeker and actually provide such Dog Walking Services to that Seeker, then you will be entitled to receive the amount of the Dog Walking Fee less the Swifto commission which is displayed on the Site ("Swifto Commission").  Subject to Section 4.4 (entitled 'Refunds') below, we use commercially reasonable efforts to transfer the Dog Walking Fee, less the Swifto Commission, to Dog Walkers within five (5) business days of the beginning of each month following the month during which an Individual Walk occurred.

(b) You agree that all Dog Walking Fee payments shall be made via Swifto.  This means that the Seeker will pay the Dog Walking Fee to Swifto, and Swifto will transfer the Dog Walking Fee, less the Swifto Commission, to the Dog Walker. 

(c) If you are a Dog Walker, then (i) you must open a PayPal account in order to receive the Dog Walking Fee, less the Commission; (ii) you shall bear all taxes, duties, levies, and other similar charges (and any related interest and penalties), however designated or imposed on you in connection with your receipt of the Dog Walking Fee or any other payments hereunder, including any income, sales, or use tax on profits which may be levied against you. 

 

4.4. Refunds.  If a Seeker notifies Swifto via email at refund@swifto.com within 48 hours of the time that the Individual Walk was supposed to occur, that such walk did not to occur, then the Seeker shall be entitled to receive a full refund of the related Dog Walking Fee, unless Swifto determines that there is no basis for Seeker's claim.  In such an event no amount shall be payable to the Dog Walker (and any amount already paid to a Dog Walker may be offset by future amounts that are due to the Dog Walker).  Failure to notify Swifto within [48] hours as specified above shall be deemed as Seeker confirmation that the Individual Walk occurred.


4.5. Insurance for Dog Walkers.  If you are a Dog Walker then you may elect to purchase general liability insurance, via the Site, for pet sitting from Pet Sitters Associates, LLC or any other insurance company. Swifto is not affiliated with the foregoing insurance companies, and assumes no responsibility for the practices of any such insurance company.  In order for you to fully understand your potential risks and exposures, Swifto advises you to review the applicable insurance terms and conditions together with your insurance advisor.

 

4.6. Swifto disclaims all responsibility and liability for any conduct of a Dog Walker or Seeker in connection with the Dog Walking Service.  If you are participating in the Dog Walking Service, then you are choosing to do so voluntarily and at your sole risk and you hereby release Swifto from any claims that you may have in connection with your participation in the Dog Walking Service.

 

4.7.  Alert Services.

(i) The Dog Walking Service enables you to receive email alerts and/or SMS texts to the email address(es) and/or the mobile number designated in your Account for the purpose of notifying you about offers, products and/or services which are published via the Dog Walking Service ("Alert Service").

4.8. Coupons.  The Site may also offer, from time to time, certain discounts or promotions in connection with the Dog Walking Service ("Coupons").  Any purchase or use of a Coupon is subject to these Terms and also any additional terms and conditions that are displayed on the Site or the Coupon itself (in the event of any conflict between these Terms or the terms and conditions that appear on the Coupon itself, these Terms shall prevail).  The Coupon expiration date will be as stated on the Coupon, or as required by applicable law.  You are not entitled to any cash value for the amount of the Coupon.  If you redeem a Coupon for less than its face value, then you will not be entitled to receive any cash back credit or credit for the difference between the face value and the amount redeemed.  Individual Coupons may not be combined with any other vouchers, coupons, or promotions unless otherwise stated on the Coupon itself.

 

4.9. Updates and Changes to Services.  Swifto, in its sole and absolute discretion, may update, change, restrict, modify, and/or cancel any of the Services or any portion thereof at any time, for any or no reason, without any liability whatsoever.

 

The Seeker acknowledges and agrees (i) that we (or one of our service providers) may charge your credit card for each Transaction you enter into (including, as applicable, for recurring charges such as monthly or other types of periodic payments) and such other amounts (including any taxes, as applicable) that may accrue in connection with the purchase; (ii) to only provide valid and current information for yourself; (iii) that we may use the tools, software or services of third party service providers to process transactions on our behalf; (iv) except as expressly set forth herein, all purchases are final and non-cancellable or non-refundable; and (v) if payment is not received by us for any reason from your card issuer, you agree to promptly pay all amounts due to us upon demand.

 

  1. 5.  Transactions between Seeker and Service Provider.

5.1. General.  You agree that all Transactions (defined below) that you enter into are at your own risk.  The first Dog Walker that confirms its availability to a Seeker's service request for Dog Walking Service will receive an email and/or SMS text which shall include the Seeker's phone number ("Notification"). Such Dog Walker is requested to contact the Seeker immediately in order to consummate a transaction with the Seeker for the requested Dog Walking Service. Dog Walkers that confirm their availability to a Seeker's service request for Dog Walking Service following such first Dog Walker will receive an email and/or SMS text that they are on a waiting list. Transaction(s)" means that a Seeker and a Dog Walker mutually decided that the Dog Walker will provide the Seeker with one or more Individual Walks. If the Seeker decided not to enter into a Transaction with a Dog Walker that received Notification or if the Dog Walker that received the Notification did not contact that Seeker within 20 minutes from receiving the Notification, the next Dog Walker on the waiting list will receive a Notification.   You acknowledge that the Site is not the provider of the requested services and accordingly shall not be responsible for the provision any such services.
