Leading pet care services marketplace connecting pet owners with dog walkers, sitters, and boarders. Seattle-based, publicly traded on NASDAQ: ROVR with 500K+ service providers.
Rover Group is the world's largest online marketplace for pet care services, connecting pet owners with a network of over 500,000 independent pet service providers across the United States, Canada, Europe, and beyond. Headquartered in Seattle, Washington, and publicly traded on NASDAQ (ROVR), Rover enables pet owners to find, book, and pay for dog walking, pet sitting, drop-in visits, doggy daycare, and boarding through a mobile app and website. The company was founded in 2011 and went public via SPAC merger in 2021.\n\nRover's marketplace model relies on a large supply of independently operating pet care providers who list their services, set their own rates, and manage their bookings through the Rover platform. The company handles payments, provides a trust and safety layer through background checks and review systems, and offers a reservation guarantee insurance program that covers incidents during booked services. This combination of marketplace infrastructure and safety assurances addresses the primary friction points pet owners experience when entrusting their animals to strangers.\n\nRover has expanded its product offering beyond pure marketplace matching to include GPS-tracked walks with automated report cards sent to owners during services, building a recurring engagement loop that increases lifetime value. The company went private after its SPAC debut underperformed and has focused on improving unit economics and international expansion. Rover competes with Wag, local dog walking apps, and traditional pet care businesses, but maintains a significant lead in brand recognition and supply density in most major US metropolitan markets.
Global payments infrastructure founded by Patrick and John Collison (YC W10); $1.4T payments volume in 2024; $18B+ revenue; $106.7B valuation as of Sept 2025; powers everything from startups to Fortune 500 companies with developer-first API design.
Stripe is a global payments infrastructure company founded in 2010 by Irish brothers Patrick and John Collison, headquartered in San Francisco, California and Dublin, Ireland. Stripe was born from the insight that accepting payments online was unnecessarily complex for developers, and that a well-designed API could unlock an entire generation of internet businesses. The company went through Y Combinator's Winter 2010 batch and grew to become the defining payments infrastructure layer of the modern internet economy, processing payments for businesses in virtually every industry worldwide.\n\nStripe's platform provides payment processing, fraud prevention via Stripe Radar, subscription billing, revenue recognition, banking-as-a-service through Stripe Treasury, corporate card issuance, identity verification, and tax compliance tools. It serves a spectrum from early-stage startups to publicly traded enterprises including Amazon, Google, Salesforce, and Shopify. Stripe's developer-first philosophy — comprehensive documentation, SDKs in every major language, and a sandbox testing environment — created an ecosystem of millions of businesses built entirely on its infrastructure.\n\nStripe processed $1.4 trillion in total payment volume in 2024 and generates over $18 billion in annual revenue, with a valuation of $106.7 billion as of September 2025. The company has remained private longer than most comparably sized technology companies, giving it flexibility to invest in long-term product expansion. An April 2024 partnership with Apple Pay extended Stripe's reach further into mobile and in-store commerce. Stripe competes with Adyen, Braintree (PayPal), and Square, but its developer ecosystem depth and global infrastructure make it the default payments platform for a generation of technology companies.
