strangers — only vouched-for neighbors
Real help, real neighbors

The help you'd ask a friend for — from someone who almost is one.

The jobs you'd never hand to a stranger off the internet are exactly the ones Village Services is built for.

👶

A babysitter you can trust

Not a stranger from a national app or a "anyone know a sitter?" Facebook post. A background-checked neighbor your community vouches for.

🔨

A hand with a side project

Building a deck, fixing a fence, hanging drywall? Get a skilled neighbor instead of overpaying a big company with a markup and a call center.

🧹

Someone to keep the house running

Cleaning, yard work, the honey-do list you never get to. Reliable local help you can book again and again once you've found your people.

🐕

A dog walker down the street

Pet sitting and dog walking from someone who actually lives nearby — not a gig worker driving in from two towns over.

🚚

Muscle for moving day

An extra set of hands to move a couch or clear the garage, from neighbors who've been rated by other neighbors.

🌱

Whatever your street needs

Tutoring, handyman work, errands, seasonal cleanups. If it's the kind of favor you'd ask a good neighbor, it belongs here.

Why it's different

Trust isn't a feature we added. It's the whole platform.

Three layers of trust stand between you and every provider — so hiring help feels less like a gamble and more like a referral from a friend.

🛡️

Vetted, not anonymous

Every provider clears a background check through Checkr — the same vetting service trusted by the country's largest platforms — before their first job.

🤝

Your Tribe comes first

Save the people you trust. Your requests reach them before anyone else — the same great providers, again and again.

🏘️

Vouched by your community

Churches, HOAs, and neighborhood groups recommend the providers they know. Local trust, made visible in the app.

The affiliate program

Your community already refers these people for free.
Now it earns every time.

When someone at church asks "does anyone know a good handyman?" — that's a referral. Your HOA newsletter recommending a cleaner? A referral. You've been growing local businesses for years and getting nothing for it. Village Services changes that.

How the math works
10% of our platform fee — back to your community

On every job your members book, we take a small platform fee. Your organization earns 10% of that fee — real, recurring support that grows as your community does. The more your neighbors help each other, the more your mission is funded.

Set up your organization

Churches, HOAs, schools, clubs, nonprofits — if people trust your recommendations, you qualify. Tell us where to reach you.

✓ Thank you — a real person will reach out within one business day.

🛡️

If something's not right, a real person makes it right.

Every job is backed by our support team. Report a concern and a real person — not a bot — responds within one business day. Safety issues jump to the front of the line, always.

Good questions

Everything you're wondering, answered.

Is it free to download and use?

Yes. Downloading Village Services and posting what you need is completely free. You only pay your provider when a job is done — and the price is agreed upfront, with no hidden fees or surprise charges.

How are providers checked?

Every provider passes a professional background check through Checkr — the same vetting service used by the country's largest platforms — before they can accept their first job. Look for the verified badge: it means a real check actually happened.

What makes this different from other gig apps?

Trust. Other apps match you with the nearest available stranger. Village Services surfaces providers your community has vouched for — the people your church, HOA, or neighbors already recommend — and lets you save your favorites so the same trusted faces come back.

When do I pay, and how?

Your card is charged only when the job is marked complete — never before. Payments are handled securely through Stripe; your card details never touch our servers.

What if something goes wrong?

Report it in the app and a real member of our support team responds within one business day. Safety concerns are prioritized above everything else. Your experience — and your honest review — helps protect the next neighbor too.

I run a church or HOA — how do we earn?

Share your organization's referral link with your members. When they join and book jobs, your organization earns 10% of our platform fee on their activity — ongoing, as cash or a donation to your cause. See how it works →
