• Ensure App\Services\UserService exists and has the right namespace – Emeka Mbah Commented Feb 3 at 22:38
• Don't use App as your root namespace if you are developing a package since that will conflict with the root namespaces of most people that would want to use the package – apokryfos Commented Feb 3 at 23:28

You're likely referencing the wrong namespace. In your package, update your service bindings from App\Services\UserService to the correct package namespace (e.g., Vendor\Package\Services\UserService), adjust your composer.json autoload settings accordingly, and run composer dump-autoload.
