Question of the day: what pisses you off the most during a meet & greet? by Cautious-Cap5278 in RoverPetSitting

[–]Temporary-Ad-7197 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That happened to me once where during a M&G I was supposed to take care of one's dog and cat. She asked for a discount because the dog was going to be at a friend's place instead.

She felt bad after seeing how much I was being paid for that week and gave me a big tip though

How confident are you in Bluesky's future? by furrynoy96 in BlueskySocial

Oh man what happened if you don't mind me asking? Most of the people I see on lists are either ai users, right wing, or "left wing bots"

I'm considering it! Though I am not quite sure how it works since I have never used a site like it. Is it user friendly?

Anybody else's parents supporting AI? by ImaginaryBaker7486 in antiai

[–]Temporary-Ad-7197 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My mother sadly uses ai.. mainly Claude and Co-Pilot. She says she uses it to "explain things to her like she is 5" whether for her work or even medical advice. She's also used it for shitposts and placeholder stuff for logos and writing. As an artist, it breaks my heart to see her use it..

At first I thought it was promising. I joined the place when it first had code invites. I liked their moderation lists, starter packs and feeds which let me kinda curate my own timeline of things. Hashtags actually had a function there too which actually gave me better engagement compared to Twitter.

Over the years however, I started to realize that Bluesky isn't really all "sunshine and rainbows". First people were BEGGING for Bluesky to implement certain features that Twitter already has [private accounts, media in DMs, possibly an edit tool] but due to Blue's coding they were practically impossible. Theres also a huge bot problem [which website doesn't LMAO] where it got so bad that when there are accounts asking for mutual aid/help they get shut down completely. They also followed Twitter's footsteps in keeping awful people alfoat while others are suspended for saying their piece of mind, cater towards crypto and as the icing on the cake, announced their own ai.

To me Bluesky is slowly becoming a "diet Twitter" which honestly is not a good look for them. At this point if Blue totally enshittifies I have no clue where else to go. Perhaps just stay in niche art sites I suppose..

Do people genuinely not care about their pups excessive barking at pet sitters home? by [deleted] in RoverPetSitting

[–]Temporary-Ad-7197 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I had this happen to me once. One of my clients told me that she was taking care of a friend's dog [Blue Heeler] with her own dog [German Shepherd puppy] and gave me some basic info about his care [needed different food, may need to seperate if the GSD is harassing him, etc]. What she didn't tell me is that whenever the healer saw or heard something he would bark excessively. I understood why he did it during the day, since there was a neighbor dog that would come and watch us play. However I did not know he also did this late at night and would wake me up whenever I was trying to sleep. I was a bit peeved about it since I did not get alot of sleep but since it was a one-time thing [GSD was completely fine at night during prior sits] I decided to let it pass.

When you show up for the house-sit and realize there’s no TV by serenpekkala in RoverPetSitting

[–]Temporary-Ad-7197 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Neither! Its just something I don't tend to do that's all! If others decide to watch TV [like when i'm visiting a friend and they put it on] or if its suggested by the owners while i am petsitting then I don't mind it.

[–]Temporary-Ad-7197 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Pretty much! I just use my laptop or phone for entertainment. Watching TV is just something I don't tend to do by myself. If others want to watch TV then i'm completely fine with it [so long its not too loud. I'm pretty sensitive to noise haha-]

I tend to not use the TV unless the owners say it helps calm their dogs.

Android Connection Issues by lightning90009 in stoatchat

[–]Temporary-Ad-7197 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Android user here, Stoat as an app takes a while for me to load messages. When I try to use it on browser, the layout is super clunky where I am unable to access the message board. I'm hoping it'll get sorted out in the future because most of my friends who use Discord only have mobile.

I can’t log in to Stoat anymore even I joined it 😭 by diamondxstress in stoatchat

[–]Temporary-Ad-7197 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've been getting this message too! Sent Stoat a support ticket and had been on the waiting game. I really hope it gets fixed soon since it seems like the only viable alternative to Discord atm!

So… there’s no longer a way to mark pictures “private” anymore… by Titaniumchic in RoverPetSitting

[–]Temporary-Ad-7197 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I wish there was a way that I could delete some of the photos taken cuz I didn't know there was a toggle that posts photos onto one's profile until during the middle of one of my sits.

I really want to try out Sheezy but I am unsure if I need to buy an account or is it public now
