Post a gig, get it done.
Whether you need help moving furniture, a hand in the yard, a TV mounted, or someone to walk the dog, toobusyto matches you with verified partners near you.
What you can post
- • Moving & delivery
- • Home repairs & handyman
- • Cleaning
- • Yard work & snow removal
- • Tech help & TV mounting
- • Assembly (IKEA, etc.)
- • Pet care & dog walking
- • Personal errands
How posting works
- Pick a category. Choose what you need done and a sub-type (e.g. “Moving” → “Help loading a truck”).
- Describe the gig. Add details and optional photos so partners know exactly what they’re walking into.
- When & where. Pick a time (or leave flexible) and drop a pin on the map or use your GPS.
- Review & pay. Confirm the total and pay through Stripe — or use toobusyto credits from previous refunds and promos. Funds are held until the gig is complete; you’re only charged when a partner is assigned.
- Pick from bids. Partners apply at your posted price or counter with their own rate. You choose who does the gig.
Once the gig is live
- Live location tracking. See your partner on a map while they’re on the way.
- In-app messaging. Coordinate details without sharing your phone number.
- Push notifications. Get pinged the moment a partner applies, starts, or finishes.
- Built-in support. Open a ticket right from the app if anything goes wrong.
How pricing works
You set your gig budget — flat-rate or hourly. On top of that we charge a marketplace service fee to keep the platform running, process payments, and support you if anything goes sideways.
13% of your gig budget, with a minimum of CAD $2.50. On gigs under about CAD $19.23 the minimum applies; above that it’s a flat 13%.
Safety
Every partner completes Stripe Identity verification (government ID) before they can apply to a single gig. You can review their profile, ratings, and completed gigs before picking them — and chat in-app, track their location en route, and rate them after. If something goes wrong, open a support ticket in the app or email support@toobusyto.ca.
