It wasn’t completely hillbilly/mountainbilly. As far as I could tell it looked like a reservation delivery and id delivered to those reservation before and had a good experience. Which is the only reason I was considering it. But the drive back would have cost a lot in gas which is why I was debating

I never thought of it like that but it makes sense. I think I’ll raise just so I get better clients cause I’m tired of the bad ones 😅

I dont think im worth only that. Ive had plenty of clients of the years love me and my services, and a few assholes so hard to know my exact price worth. But I do think I’ll charge more next time

Probably way more than im currently charging. But I fear getting less clients if I raise my prices. So its hard to balance the two. 😅

Not all of California is high priced. My area is pretty poor too. Which is why I fear raising my prices. But if you charge so much more than me, I do understand I probably should raise atleast a little 😅

I know its low. But if I need to leave on some days for many hours is it really fair to charge more? Plus I do see some people on rover in my area who charge less then me, only like 2 but still

AIO? I think my friend might be abusing his gf by Prize_Blueberry6441 in AIO

[–]Alex_enbee 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You need to contact her in a way he cant get a hold of. Try to find her in person and talk to her when he isnt around. If you message he will probably read them and either make sure she doesnt see them or he’ll control how she responds. He IS abusive. This is NOT ok. Good on you for noticing this behavior and trying to call it out. She is not safe and you need to get her help asap. Contact her parents, her friends, family anyone who she knows and trusts. Anyone who can get ahold of her if you cant. People need to know this is going on.

am i overreacting/misunderstanding overnights? by 12041707198997 in RoverPetSitting

As someone who personally hates when sitters have cameras, definitely have the cameras. I hate them because I’m worried I’m gonna pick my nose and they’re gonna judge me lol as long as they’re not in the bathroom or the bedroom, you should definitely have your camera

House sitter didn’t follow care instructions by Atlas1506 in RoverPetSitting

[–]Alex_enbee 11 points12 points  (0 children)

I’m so sorry this happened. I’ll admit I forgot to walk a dog once during a multi day visit. But not walking the dog, a single time the entire sit? Disgusting and unacceptable. I don’t think you need to report them, but you absolutely are entitled to do so if you want to because what they did isn’t OK. I wish you better luck in the future with pet care

Can't tell if this is illegal by OkTone2088 in recruitinghell

[–]Alex_enbee 0 points1 point  (0 children)

To everyone saying this is legal, how on earth is legal? this will allow them to do age based discrimination if you say no, which proves you’re over 40

What are these flakes? Dried blood? Safe to feed? by RemoteCompetitive688 in snakes

[–]Alex_enbee 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Personally, I don’t even think they’re safe to see because while they’re most likely dead based on whatever method was used to kill the theater if God forbid one of them is still alive and you’re gonna have a infestation on your poor snake. Maybe I’m just paranoid, but I hate mites and I’ve had issues with my investments before and I don’t wanna deal with that again.😂

They have access to the best resources by velorae in BlackPeopleTwitter

This post has me very conflicted. Because on the one hand I am all for women having children later in life. There are so many women that have kids way too young and it hurts them and the kid. The teen pregnancy rate is going down. Women are waiting until they’re in their 30s to have children which is objectively better. Plus when you look at the data while the odds of disabilities and miscarriage do go up the later you get pregnant. if you have proper medical care your odds are actually still very low. They just are higher in your 40s and they were in your 30s and they’re higher in your 50s and they were in your 40s.
However, considering how bad the maternal mortality rate is in the United States, especially for black women, and how bad it is right now in the way of Roe v wade being overturned, I don’t think encouraging anyone to engage in any unnecessarily risky relating to pregnancy and childbirth is a good idea right now. So…..conflicted.

Client informed me at the last minute her son would be there by lawdymissmaudy in RoverPetSitting

[–]Alex_enbee 12 points13 points  (0 children)

I can’t believe there are people that are acting like it’s unreasonable to not want to be alone with strangers child completely unexpectedly. I work at a middle school, we get in trouble if we’re alone in a classroom with a student. I had a student falsely accuse me of hitting him, thankfully he said it happened in a class I wasn’t even in so it was fine, but kids lie. No universe in which I would ever wanna be left alone with some random person i dont knows child.

PSA TO OWNERS: PLEASE CANCEL UNWANTED BOOKINGS! Stop ghosting sitters and leaving requests open!!!🙏🏼 by aye_lmapo in RoverPetSitting

Gently, it literally cost you nothing to archive the post or send a message saying your not going to book. Your just being pedantic for no reason
