The sharing economy industry is booming drastically in Asia. Fluv is a sharing economy pet care startup created by a group of animal-loving serial entrepreneurs from the U.S. and Taiwan. The platform has grown from 0 to nearly 30k users and closed our angel round within a year. It is our goal to use sharing economy, AI, and data to help improve pets’ lives in Asia. The biggest pet care platform in the U.S. is about to file for an IPO. We have to work harder to show the world what Taiwan is about! Join us, because every pet deserves to be Fluved.

「找不到人顧毛小孩，透過共享平台不就好了？」
毛小愛創辦人Candace長期與寵物在美國生活，售出第一間新創回來亞洲後，發現東北亞有6千萬隻犬貓需要他人照顧卻十分不方便，包括自己的狗狗Skye與朋友的貓咪小短，到現在還要到處問親朋好友幫忙，於是將美國的共享寵物科技與數據媒合技術帶來亞洲，成立了毛小愛，期望透過科技的方式，給人們帶來更便利的生活、幫助弱勢族群賺取第二收入、同時也讓寵物與浪浪得到更好的照顧，並在五年內成為亞洲最大的共享寵物照顧平台。2019年中毛小愛團隊正式成立，並於2019 後半年進駐 AppWorks 加速器。

“Can’t find someone to care for your pet? Use a sharing platform then!”
Fluv’s founder Candace lived with her dog Skye in California for many years. After selling her first juice startup and moving to Asia with her dog, she discovered a huge opportunity in pet care when she had to find someone to help her watch Skye. Pet owners are still using the traditional way to ask friends and family to help when they are away or busy. She then decided to create Fluv, a sharing economy pet care platform customized to the Asian market to solve pet owner’s pet care problems, making it easy to find reliable local pet sitters to help, helping minorities find ways to make extra income as well as improving pets’ lives. It is our goal to become the biggest pet care platform in Asia in five years.
