“…Matofsk [14] put forward a very broad definition of the sharing economy: the sharing economy is a socio-economic ecosystem built on the sharing of human and material resources.

The sharing economy has allowed idle resources to be used again and is known as a model for the new economy. Advances in network technology have allowed the scale of the sharing economy to be expanded through digital platforms. To our best knowledge, no studies in the literature have explored a pet boarding platform for the sharing economy. This research selected the emerging pet care industry as its scope and took the Rover.com pet boarding digital platform, with the highest market share in the world, as the research object for an intensive case study. Three types of secondary data analysis were used: industry profile analysis, case information, and papers and journals. The business model and value proposition of the platform summarizes the key to the success of digital platforms, which is expected to be helpful to entrepreneurs who want to create a sharing economy marketplace. The research results showed that the sharing economy needs to use digital platforms as a matching intermediary between supply and demand to establish a personal-to-personal transaction pattern and it also needs digital platforms to establish a sense of trust and a guarantee mechanism for participants in the sharing economy. For the digital platform to be profitable, it must identify the platform’s unique value proposition and business model, and set up monitoring of transaction parties and evaluation functions, as well as insurance systems and digital platform IT support.

The modernization of traditional manufacturing industries and service industries, organization of trading and purchasing procedures, related financial and logistics operations, changes in consumption patterns in the presence of thorough penetration of information technologies and digitalization of economic processes creates the basis for forming new markets and new conditions of their operation. One of the effects of global technological changes and digitalization of consumer experience was the development of a new form of trade and property relations – a share economy. Reorientation of consumer behavior from purchasing to sharing, exclusion of intermediaries from a “client – contractor” chain, strengthening the role of online reputation and self-regulation of the community to ensure the quality of services revolutionize a business model in many areas. Digital share economies will evolve and transform over the next few years. In this regard, it becomes important to study the essence, principles of functioning, and development of new business models.

“…Martucci, 2014 "An emerging, highly flexible economic network [that] allows people to share resources such as equipment, services, and skills with one another, often at a significantly lower cost than traditional retail or employment arrangements". Matofska, 2016 "The Sharing economy is a system to live by where we care for people and planet and share available resources however we can". Olson & Kemp, 2015 "A sharing economy is a market whereby: 1) Users are individuals, businesses, or machines 2) There is an excess supply of an asset or skillset and sharing creates economic benefit for both the sharer and the user 3) The Internet provides means for communication and coordination of the sharing".…”
