Abstract	More than 50% of American families have at least one pet nowadays, and the number is still rising. Pet caring needs are also growing with it. When people need to leave home for work or vacation, leaving pets home alone might bother some pet owners. Unfortunately, existing approaches all have limitations from the perspective of time, cost, efficiency, and convenience. This Master's report presents FluffyHome, a p2p website to find a pet sitter for free. FluffyHome offers a new perspective on finding a pet sitter. By blending a credit-based approach with the commercial approach, FluffyHome users can take advantage of each. The result of a lab study showed using FluffyHome to find a pet-sitter is cheap and more convenient compared to other competitors.
