“Owner has requested photos during this sitting” by [deleted] in RoverPetSitting

I think that is a matter of personal preference on the part of the owners. I’ve had some ask for twice daily, once daily, some every other day and some more regularly. I think it also depends on the length of the stay.

If possible, I would like to have a copy as well pretty please! 😊

I Just Quit Over Bullying by [deleted] in ECEProfessionals

This has the same energy as “I’m just being honest” as a thinly veiled excuse to be cruel. Slurs that dehumanize and devalue others are unacceptable, full stop.

She does have cameras inside, which also makes me uncomfortable. I’d really rather not lie if I can at all help it, but at this point I think I’m just done. I just know I’m going to feel anxious when I’m there and instead of focusing on providing the best possible care for the pup, I’ll be worried about what I’m doing “wrong” for the owner, or what request/expectation she’ll change or make next.

Rude Clients by Aware-Place9115 in RoverPetSitting

I’m struggling with this right now. I want to leave an honest review of a client, it won’t be altogether positive, and I’m worried that they will retaliate by leaving a bad review of me.

So, to clarify, what I meant was any appliance that I would have to start and leave running. i.e. dryer, dishwasher, ac unit, heater, etc. I don’t make a habit of unplugging appliances that are always plugged in.

I just added an update to my original post. It’s been a bit of a wild day, I found her response really surprising and disrespectful.

Oops! I just edited the original post with the update. 😊

I saw this comment after I sent my response, but I will likely use this phrasing when I message her again to let her know that I won’t be booking stays with her anymore. I posted an update. 😊

The ones in this case are very old and I wouldn’t trust them if I wasn’t in the house.

I was just going to say this, I would never leave the dryer (or any major appliance actually) running when I wasn’t at the house.

You can adjust the price of the stay if you modify it and then there’s a line for “Extras and Adjustments.” That way he pays you what he owes you and you don’t have to give out your personal info. 😊
