How do I get paid for a job?

To receive payment, request payment after the job is complete. The sooner you submit your request, the sooner funds will come through.

Requesting payment

Select Your job > Request payment. Then:

• Enter the actual start time (when you arrived) and end time (when you were released)
• For group jobs, include any unpaid break time
• Review the rate, total hours, and total payment
• Submit your request

Enter accurate times to help avoid delays.

Minimum hours

If a job is shorter than your minimum hours, payment will reflect your minimum. If you arrive more than 15 minutes late or leave early by choice, minimum hours will not apply.

Automatic requests

If you don’t request payment within 24 hours after a job’s scheduled end time, SitterTree will automatically submit a request using the booked times.

Need to make a change?

You can cancel a payment request from past jobs and submit a new one if needed.

Nanny jobs

Payments for nanny jobs are handled directly with the family. These are not processed through SitterTree. Be sure to confirm payment details and expectations in advance.
