####   

Pet Caregivers who use the Wag! Platform to grow their independent pet care business, undergo a thorough screening process including a [**comprehensive background check**](https://vetty.co/wagvetty-background-screening/) and a pet care knowledge test.

Pet Caregivers can also request [**endorsements from Pet Parents**](https://support.wagwalking.com/en_us/what-are-pet-caregiver-endorsements-and-how-do-i-complete-them-pp-ByZqg_EBc) in their community to help kickstart their business and reflects their pet care experience. Endorsements are especially helpful for new Pet Caregivers who haven’t yet completed any services.
