PETBUBBLE PTY LTD, ACN 677 036 430 (hereafter referred to as “PetBubble”, “we”, “us”, or “our”) provides the PetBubble Platform (hereafter referred to as “PetBubble Platform”, or “Platform”) including a suite of software applications and websites that enable Pet Owners (hereafter referred to as “Pet Owner”, “Pet Owners”, or “Customer”) to find Pet Services, and to provide Pet Service Providers (hereafter referred to as “Pet Service Provider(s)”, “Pet Business(s)”, or “Provider(s)”) with a means of offering and booking such Pet Services.
By making use of or accessing the PetBubble Platform, you (hereafter “You” or “Your”), the User (“User” or “Users”), agree to comply with and be legally bound by the following Terms of Service (“Terms”), whether or not You register as a User. For this reason, it is important to review the following Terms carefully. These Terms constitute a legally binding contract between You and PetBubble, under which we agree to maintain the Platform and You agree to pay the Fee and to respect these Terms.
If You do not agree to these Terms, You must not use the Platform in any way, including without limitation to contact, communicate with, or otherwise obtain information from Users via the Platform.
The Platform is intended solely for persons who are 18 years of age or older. By accessing or using the Platform You represent and warrant that You are 18 or older. We only allow minors on the Platform if they have specific consent from a parent or guardian, and if such parent or guardian has provided PetBubble with their proof of identity. The account created on the Platform is then shared by the minor and their parent / guardian and should expressly state that the parent / guardian vouches and takes full accountability for the actions of the minor.
Each User agrees that a binding legal contract is created between each Customer and Provider when a Pet Service is booked through the Platform. Any such agreement between User is on these Terms, the Provider Terms, and any other applicable terms in the relevant Booking.
The Platform and Our Services comprise an online platform through which providers may set up listings for pet services, and customers may find, initiate and book pet services.
You acknowledge and agree that PetBubble is not a party to any agreements between Providers and Customers. PetBubble has no control over, and is not responsible for, the actions or omissions of providers, customers, pets, or any other users of the platform or pet services. PetBubble disclaims any and all liability in this regard to the maximum extent permitted by law.
By accessing or using PetBubble, You agree to abide by these Terms. Our Services are provided for Your convenience and should be adhered to accordingly. Redirecting Customers to any other website, platform, or third-party service instead of the listings provided on PetBubble is prohibited unless explicitly authorised by PetBubble. Unauthorised redirection may result in the suspension of Your account or access to Our Services and could lead to potential legal actions as per our Terms and Conditions.

1. Key Terms
2. Disclaimer and Liability
Disclaimer
PetBubble, including its partners, agents, contractors, officers, directors, shareholders, employees, and other third parties associated or involved in running the Platform, to the maximum extent permitted by law, disclaim all liability and responsibility for, and You agree to release us from, any damage or loss that might be suffered by You, any User or any other third party caused directly or indirectly by Our Services, the Pet Services or any other use of the Platform (including without limitation interactions with third parties facilitated by the Platform) INCLUDING, WITHOUT LIMITATION, LOSS OR DAMAGE SUFFERED AS A RESULT OF NEGLIGENCE.
Dealings with other Users
You acknowledge that You are solely responsible for any relationship, agreement or arrangement between You and another User, and enter any transaction or dealings with another User at your own risk. Users accept liability for any decision made or action taken in reliance on any information contained or omitted from the Platform. We are not a party to any agreement or arrangement entered into by or between the Users.
We are not responsible for resolving or dealing with any disputes, disagreements or matters in relation to any dealings between Users, and we are not obliged to be involved in such disputes, disagreements or matters in any way. If You have a dispute with one or more Users, you release us (and our directors, employees and agents) from any and all claims, demands and damages (actual and consequential) of every kind and nature, known or unknown, arising out of or in any way connected with such disputes.
3. Modifications to these Terms
PetBubble reserves the right to change these Terms at any time, including to vary, remove, or introduce Fees. Before changing these terms, PetBubble will try to give Users notice of such change by way of update before they take effect, although this may not always be possible. Please check our Platform regularly for updates. Such modifications will be effective immediately upon posting (or if a date is specified in the notice, that date). Any changes to Terms will not have retrospective effect and will only impact upon bookings made after the time of the change. Continued access or use of the Platform shall be deemed conclusive evidence of Your acceptance of the modified Terms.
4. Compliance with Laws
When accessing or using the Platform or Our Services, and providing or using Pet Services, You must comply with all applicable local, state, national and international laws and You are responsible for obtaining all necessary licenses and permits. You are also solely responsible for complying with any and all applicable tax laws and regulations that apply to Your activity on the Platform. This includes the payment of tax on any amounts collected for Pet Services provided.
Without limiting the preceding paragraph, it is Your sole responsibility and obligation to comply with any applicable laws relating to the Pet Services, including without limitation with respect to the boarding of animals and the keeping of animals at private premises, including any applicable state and federal companion animal legislation and the local council regulations and by-laws.
Each User is solely responsible for obtaining all permits, licences and other permissions required to offer or provide any pet services. PetBubble assumes no responsibility for a User’s failure to obtain such permits, licences or permissions or otherwise comply with any applicable laws, rules or regulations.
5. Relationship
You acknowledge and agree that nothing in these Terms or Your use of the Platform, Our Services or the Pet Services creates a relationship of principal and agent, employer and employee, partnership or joint venture between PetBubble and any User, and that You must not represent to any person that You are authorised to exercise any responsibilities for or on behalf of PetBubble.
PetBubble is not an employment service and does not serve as an employer of any User, nor is PetBubble in the position to provide any tax related advice. As such, Users are solely responsible for any tax, withholding or reporting, including, but not limited to, unemployment insurance, social security or payroll withholding tax or income reporting in connection with any Pet Services provided by Providers.
You understand and agree that if PetBubble is found to be liable for any tax, withholding tax or reporting obligation in connection with any Pet Services provided or received by You, then You will immediately reimburse and indemnify PetBubble for all costs, expenses and liabilities (including any interest and penalties) relating to the same.
Withholding or Retrieving funds or platform credit PetBubble reserves the right to retrieve or withhold funds from a Provider’s balance in the event that the funds have been transferred in error, fraudulently accrued, if the booking is not completed or if the Provider is required to pay costs such as insurance excess.
6. How the PetBubble Platform Works
The Platform can be used to book Pet Services provided by Providers. These Pet Services are shown as Listings on the Platform. Users may be required to provide personal information, including without limitation about their homes and their Pet(s), and may need to nominate a bank or PayPal Account. Each Provider can set the details and prices for the Pet Services only in accordance with the parameters allowed by the Platform. It is possible to view Listings as an unregistered visitor to the Platform. If You want to book Pet Services provided by the Platform as a Customer, or set up a Listing as a Provider, You need to register first to create a User Account.
Each Provider must provide the Pet Services in accordance with the relevant Booking, and each Customer must pay the Pet Service Fee pursuant to that Booking via the Payment Gateway.
PetBubble connects Users and provides the Payment Gateway as set out in these Terms. However, PetBubble plays no role in the agreements between Users with regards to the provision of Pet Services and Insurance Services set out by the Providers. Users are solely responsible for such agreements.
The Customer is obliged to pay the Pet Service Fee applicable to a Booking using the Payment Gateway at the time both the Customer and the Provider have agreed on the Booking made through the Platform. The Pet Service Fee paid by the relevant Customer will be retained by either the Provider, or if selected by the Provider, PetBubble, until the completion date of the relevant Booking in accordance with these Terms. If PetBubble retains the Pet Service Fee, subject to the Withholding Period, PetBubble will transfer the relevant Pet Service Fee, less Processing Fee and PetBubble Fee, to the Provider’s nominated bank or PayPal account, after the Provider has submitted a redeem request for payment.
Each Provider acknowledges that, notwithstanding that the relevant Withholding Period for a Booking may have ended, a Customer may be legally entitled to a refund or other remedy with respect to the Pet Services under any applicable law. To the maximum extent allowed at law, each Provider indemnifies PetBubble with respect to any and all costs or expenses incurred by PetBubble with respect to such a claim made by a Customer with respect to Pet Services performed by that Provider, whether before or after the Withholding Period applicable to the relevant Booking.
Please let it be clear that PetBubble cannot and does not control any listings or pet services. PetBubble is not responsible for and disclaims any and all liability related to any and all listings and pet services provided by or used by Users. Each Pet Owner uses the Platform and the pet services provided by Providers at their own risk.
In consideration of each User enjoying Our Services:
7. Our Platform and Fees

Registering on the Platform is free. To register an Account, Users must complete the registration process in the manner described on the Platform.
In exchange for certain of Our Services, Users must pay Our Fees with respect to Bookings made through the Platform.

Our PetBubble Fee covers the costs of PetBubble overheads, including but not limited to insurance, staff, administration, customer support, training, legal and compliance, and transaction processing.
Our PetBubble Fee is a fixed percentage of the Pet Service Fee specified in the relevant Booking or such other amount specified on our Platform from time to time. Our PetBubble Fee is deducted from the Pet Service Fee which is payable to You as a Provider in accordance with these Terms.
Our Processing Fees

Our Processing Fee covers the costs of Tashi platform maintenance, cybersecurity including encryption, firewalls, antivirus software, multi-factor authentication (MFA), and server storage provided by PetBubble.
Our Processing Fee is a fixed percentage of the Pet Service Fee specified in the relevant Booking or such other amount specified on our Platform from time to time. Our Processing Fee is deducted from the Pet Service Fee which is payable to You as a Provider in accordance with these Terms.
Cancellation Fee
Without limiting the terms below under “Cancellation Policies and Refunds”, depending on the cancellation policy selected by the Provider, if a Customer cancels a Booking, the Customer may be required to pay the relevant Provider a cancellation fee in accordance with the terms of the relevant Booking (Cancellation Fee). Customers can view the Provider’s cancellation policy at all times on the Provider’s public Pet Sitting profile available on the Platform in the section “More about the Pet service provider”.
In the event that a Cancellation Fee is payable to a Provider, Our Service Fee will be deducted from such amount before the Cancellation Fee is paid to the Provider.
All Fees
Any changes to any of Our Fees are effective once they are posted on the Platform (unless a specific effective date has been specified). Unless otherwise stated in the relevant Booking, all Fees are stated and payable in Australian Dollars. Each User accepts the responsibility to pay the amounts payable with respect to such Fees, credit charges (see below) and applicable taxes in a timely manner by means of a valid payment method that PetBubble accepts.
8. Credit Card
If You make any payments for using Our Services or Pet Services with a credit or charge card or an online payment account, You warrant that you are the cardholder or account holder and that the billing information provided is accurate, and You authorise PetBubble, or a third party engaged by PetBubble for the purpose of operating the Payment Gateway or other payment system on the Platform (“Payment Gateway Provider”) to charge the designated credit or charge card or online payment account for the total amount of the payment, plus any GST. All payments and purchases made in connection with PetBubble are non-refundable unless otherwise expressly stated in these Terms or we otherwise agree upon.
Where applicable, You agree to pay all GST and other similar taxes imposed in connection with the supply of the use of Our Services or Pet Services to You. You are responsible for all internet service Provider fees, telecommunication and other charges required for your connection to, or use of, Our Services and the Platform.

9. Cancellation Policies and Refunds
Each Customer and Provider agrees to the cancellation rules set forth below with respect to each Booking made through the Platform.
Cancellations & Refunds before the start of the Booking
Customers – if You are a Customer, this section applies to You:
Providers – if You are a Provider, this section applies to You:
Cancellations & Refunds after the start of the Booking
In certain circumstances, and without limiting anything else in these Terms, PetBubble may determine to refund a Customer the Booking Fee paid if that Customer is dissatisfied with the Booking or the Pet Services.
In certain circumstances, and without limiting anything else in these Terms, PetBubble may determine to refund a Provider the Service Fee paid if that Customer is dissatisfied with Booking on the Platform.
To be eligible for a refund, Users must notify PetBubble in writing at info@petbubble.au of any complaints regarding a Booking (including with respect to the performance or omissions of the Pet Services under that Booking) within the Withholding Period. Such notice must clearly specify the details and reasons for the Customer’s complaint. PetBubble expects the Customer and Provider not to agree to or undertake any further bookings after an initial complaint. As such, we will not consider any complaints resulting from further bookings between that Provider and Customer.
PetBubble may take into account any factors regarding the Booking and the Pet Services that it considers relevant when determining whether to refund a Customer for any or all amounts paid with respect to that Booking. In any case, refunds are not available for payments that were not made through the Platform. Other relevant factors include, but are not limited to:
Users understand and acknowledge that the Pet Services may be subject to statutory guarantees under Australian Consumer Law (Competition and Consumer Act 2010) and any other applicable laws. Nothing in these Terms operates to exclude or limit the operation of such guarantees in any manner contrary to law.
PetBubble understands that there are certain circumstances where a Provider may not be able to complete performance of Pet Services with respect to a Booking (such as in the event of severe aggression or emergencies). However, PetBubble reserves the right to terminate or suspend Provider’s Accounts and/or access to the Platform in our absolute discretion if we determine that any cancellation or failure to perform the Pet Services under a Booking is unsatisfactory.
PetBubble reserves the right to remove a Customer’s Pet from the location at which the Pet Services are performed if we determine it is necessary for the safety of the Pet, the Provider, or any other persons, however PetBubble is under no obligation to do so. In the event We choose to relocate a Pet, PetBubble and the Provider shall make reasonable efforts during the Provider’s and/or PetBubble’s normal business hours to contact the relevant Customer and/or the Customer’s Emergency Contact to arrange alternative care. Should the Provider and PetBubble not be able to contact the Customer or the Customer’s Emergency Contact, the Provider will endeavour to find adequate care until the Customer is able to retrieve the Pet. The Customer is responsible for and indemnifies PetBubble for any charges, costs, expenses or liabilities incurred by PetBubble as a result of taking any of the actions referred to in this paragraph.
10. Failure to retrieve Pet(s)
If an Customer makes a Booking with a Provider for Pet Services and fails to retrieve the relevant Pet(s) within seven (7) days without any communication (or any earlier time period provided by any applicable law) after the date specified in the relevant Booking for the completion of the Pet Services, the Customer agrees that both the Provider and/or PetBubble may, but has no obligation to, in its sole discretion, place or arrange a third party to place the relevant Pet(s) in to Domestic Animal Services including without limiting to foster care, shelter or similar and may notify the relevant authorities.
For the purpose of surrendering only, you agree that temporary ownership will be granted to the Provider so they are able to legally surrender the pet to Domestic Animal Services. Each Customer agrees that they are solely responsible for and indemnify PetBubble for all costs, expenses and liabilities that PetBubble may incur arising directly or indirectly from the Customer failing to retrieve the relevant Pets with respect to any Booking of the Customer. Nothing in these Terms operates to limit any applicable laws that may apply to a Customer’s failure to retrieve Pet(s) with respect to any Booking of the Customer, including any applicable animal abandonment or cruelty laws.
11. Medical Issues and Emergencies
The contact information relating to the Customer and the Provider who have entered a Booking is automatically provided to the other party during the Booking process.
Each User acknowledges and understands that such contact information will be relied upon in the event that PetBubble, Customer or Provider (as the case may be) needs to contact the relevant User, including with respect to any emergency, medical issue or otherwise in the provision of any applicable Pet Services. You must keep all such contact information up to date at all times and must ensure that any Customer or Provider You engage using the Platform is provided with and aware of such contact information.
In the event a Provider, in carrying out Pet Services, reasonably considers that the relevant Pet needs veterinary care or any other medical attention whilst in the Provider’s care, the Provider must immediately contact the relevant Customer using the contact information provided by the Customer. In such case, the Customer agrees to respond to such communication from the relevant Provider and to provide instructions as to how the Provider should proceed, including whether medical assistance should be sought and if so, what kind of medical assistance should be sought, and whether the Provider can contact the veterinary contact provided by the Customer or in the absence of such contact information, a veterinary contact that the Provider reasonably believes to be appropriate.
In the event that a Pet reasonably requires veterinary care or any form of medical assistance whilst the Pet is in the care of a Provider pursuant to a Booking, then, provided that the relevant veterinarian or medical practitioner is qualified to provide medical treatment or advice regarding the Pet pursuant to any applicable laws, the Customer acknowledges, agrees and authorises any actions to be taken with respect to the Pet which that veterinarian or medical practitioner recommends.
Without limiting the above, in case of any emergency relating to a Pet in the care of a Provider, the Provider must immediately notify the Customer (and any emergency contact provided by the Customer pursuant to the relevant Booking) and PetBubble by sending us an e-mail at info@petbubble.au (and putting “Emergency” in the subject line). The Provider must provide all relevant details of any emergency so that the Customer, the Customer’s emergency contact and/or PetBubble can determine which veterinary care is required. In the event that the Provider is unable to contact the Customer or the Customer’s emergency contact, PetBubble will take reasonable efforts during PetBubble’ normal business hours to contact the Customer or their emergency contact and notify them of the situation.
If the Customer or the Customer’s emergency contact cannot be contacted in event of an emergency, the Customer authorises the Provider to take any and all actions reasonably required to obtain veterinary care and/or any other medical assistance and to take any actions recommended by such veterinarian or medical practitioner (as the case may be) with respect to the relevant Pet.
Without limiting the above, if a Customer and a Provider agree in writing as to the procedure to be followed in the event of an emergency, the Provider must use best endeavours to comply with such directions. This notwithstanding, each Customer agrees that the Provider can seek veterinary care or other medical assistance, as the Provider, acting in good faith, considers reasonably appropriate, including in the event that the Customer cannot be contacted.
In the event that the PetBubble and/or a Provider obtains any veterinary care or other medical assistance with respect to a Pet, to the maximum extent allowed by law the Customer must:
Each Customer agrees that any costs or expenses incurred in connection with obtaining veterinary care or other medical assistance with respect to the Customer’s Pet under a Booking may be charged directly to the Customer’s credit card or PayPal account. The Customer also authorizes the Payment Gateway Provider to charge any amount that we consider to be the subject of such indemnity. These amounts may be charged from the nominated bank or PayPal account of the Customer using any credit card or PayPal details provided by the Customer. The Customer may be eligible to recover some or all of such amounts charged to the Customer’s credit card or PayPal account under the PetBubble Public Liability Insurance (additional information regarding eligibility for reimbursements can be found in section 12 of these Terms and at https://PetBubble.au/terms-of-...
12. Insurance Services
PetBubble requires Providers to obtain appropriate insurance for their Pet Services. PetBubble insurance is secondary to any other relevant insurance the Provider may have. Please review any insurance policy that You may have for Your Pet Services carefully, and in particular please make sure that You are familiar with and understand any exclusions to, and any deductibles that may apply for, such insurance policy, including, but not limited to, whether or not your insurance policy will cover the actions or inactions of Customers and Customer’s pets with respect to which You provide any Pet Services. Please note that the failure to advise Your insurance company (whether for Homeowner’s, Renter’s or other insurance) about Your activities relating to Pet Services may void your coverage or result in denial of an otherwise covered claim.
The Provider is responsible for, and irrevocably indemnifies PetBubble against, any costs, expenses and liabilities incurred by PetBubble in relation to any claim under the Insurance Services in connection with that Provider’s Booking.
13. Property Damage
The Insurance Services do not cover any property damage caused by a Pet or by a Customer to a Provider’s property or any other person’s property in the same property as the Provider, nor does it cover any damage to a Provider’s property directly or indirectly caused by the Pet Services. Notwithstanding this, You acknowledge and agree that PetBubble does not have any responsibility to reimburse or otherwise cover You for any property damage whatsoever, and You hereby indemnify, release and hold harmless PetBubble with respect to any cost, expenses or liabilities incurred directly or indirectly in connection with any Pet Services, including with respect to any damage of property.
PetBubble is not a party to any agreement between Users pursuant to any Booking, and as such each User agrees that any dispute relating to property damage in connection with Pet Services must be settled between the relevant Users. Each User releases and indemnifies PetBubble with respect to any dispute between Users, including (without limitation) with respect to damaged property. This notwithstanding, PetBubble may elect, in its absolute discretion, to facilitate communication between disputing Users.
14. Risk Management
This clause 14 applies notwithstanding anything in these Terms to the contrary.
PetBubble and its affiliates and Third-Party-Providers and their respective directors, officers and/or employees (collectively referred to as ‘PetBubble entities’) disclaim all risk of any loss, liability or damage (including personal injury, property damage, or death to any person or animal), which may arise in relation to the User’s use of the Platform, Our Services or the Pet Services (whether arising in breach of contract, tort (including negligence), breach of statutory duty or otherwise), to the maximum extent permitted at law. This disclaimer of loss, liability and damage applies even if the PetBubble entities should have the knowledge or have been advised, of the possibility of such loss, liability or damage.
Subject to the following paragraph, except where expressly provided otherwise on the Platform, all Content and Our Services are provided “as is” and each PetBubble entity disclaims all express or implied representations, guarantees, warranties and conditions (“guarantees”) in relation to the Platform and Our Services, including such guarantees of merchantability, safety, fitness for a particular purpose, title, non-infringement, quality of goods and services (including Our Services and Pet Services), reliability, availability, timeliness, quality, accuracy and suitability, and any guarantee related to the quality of goods and/or services of Third Party Providers and any persons or businesses referred to on the Platform, including such guarantees as may be implied by law. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, each PetBubble entity disclaims any guarantee that the operation or use of the Platform or provision of Our Services will be uninterrupted, secure, timely or free of errors, viruses or other items of an intrusive nature. Each User acknowledges that none of the PetBubble entities has control over the transfer of data over communications facilities, including the internet, and that the Platform and Our Services may be subject to delays, limitations, and other problems inherent in the use of such communications facilities and no PetBubble entity is responsible for any delivery failures, delays or other damage resulting from such problems.
Nothing in the preceding paragraphs will operate to exclude any guarantee that may not be lawfully excluded. To the extent that a guarantee implied by law may not be lawfully excluded, but liability for breach thereof may lawfully be limited, the liability of each PetBubble entity for breach of each such warranty is limited to one or more of the following (at the discretion of the relevant PetBubble entity) and each User agrees that it is reasonable for the relevant PetBubble entity to limit liability in the following manner:
In the case of services (including Our Services):
In the case of goods:
Each PetBubble entity disclaims all liability for any incidental, indirect, special or consequential damages which may arise in regard to the use of the Platform, Our Services or the Pet Services (whether arising in breach of contract, tort (including negligence), breach of statutory duty or otherwise), to the maximum extent permitted by law.
To the maximum extent permitted by law, each User assumes, on behalf of itself and all third parties (including minors) who may be exposed to any animal in connection with any use of the Platform, Our Services or the Pet Services, all risk of liability, loss or damage (including property damage, personal injury or death to any person or animal) which may arise in relation to the use of the Platform, Our Services or the Pet Services (whether arising in breach of contract, breach of statutory duty, tort (including negligence), or otherwise). Without limiting the foregoing, each User acknowledges the risks arising providing or receiving Pet Services, including with respect to the risk inherent in dealing with an animal that may not be familiar with or accustomed to any persons (including minors) or property to whom such animal may be exposed.
Each User acknowledges that Our Services and Pet Services facilitated through the Platform are not appropriate for all animals and Pets. Each User acknowledges and agrees that PetBubble is in no way responsible for any determination as to whether Our Services are appropriate or suitable for any Pet, nor are we responsible for any determination as to whether any Provider is appropriate or suitable for the provision of Pet Services in relation to any Pet.
To the maximum extent allowed at law, PetBubble makes no guarantee, representation or warranty regarding any User Generated Content, including with respect to the accuracy or reliability of any User Feedback, comments or ratings on Providers on the Platform, nor as to the quality, security or positive features of the Provider or any location where Pet Services are provided.
