PettyGigs is a mobile-first peer-to-peer marketplace for short-term tasks and errands. PettyGigs uses AI-powered curated recommendations driven by the user’s profile and preferences to intelligently match requestors (Gig Posters) and screened service providers (Giggers).

Anyone 14 or over can perform gigs.

We are currently active in the Charlotte, NC and surrounding areas. We will gradually become active in more cities.

Ensuring the safety of users is our primary concern. Each Gigger 18 or over undergo and must pass a comprehensive background check before using PettyGigs. For Giggers below 18, we require consent from a parent or legal guardian before they are allowed to use the app. A parent or legal guardian providing consent must provide a government-issued identification to verify their name and age.

Ideal users of PettyGigs are teens and young adults (Giggers) who are able to flexibly perform common tasks and run errands for busy and elderly neighbors (Gig Posters) for compensation. Giggers can also include skilled adults who need the flexibility of earning extra money in their free time.

During onboarding, our Giggers must read and accept the safety policy. They are also advised to report all safety concerns, including predatory attempts from Gig Posters. All reported incidents will be treated with urgency and undergo serious investigation. If necessary, Gig Posters will be banned from the platform.

Just about any type of gigs can be performed on PettyGigs. Anything from handy gigs (furniture setup, TV mounting, plumbing, etc.), to household chores (cleaning, organizing, etc.), to yard work, to recreational gigs (photography, videography, DJ, etc.), to beauty and care gigs (barbing, hair care, etc.), to pet gigs (dog walking, pet sitting, etc.).

PettyGigs is free to use. We do however require a nonrefundable background check fee from Giggers undergoing background checks to cover the cost. We also charge a small transaction fee from Giggers and Gig Posters each time a gig is performed.

Anyone 18 and over, who has been validated via our automated ID verification process can post gigs on PettyGigs.
