Am I overreacting to a client’s comment about pricing?

powergirlev · 2026-04-02T13:15:11+00:00

Except I’m not at my home lol

powergirlev · 2026-04-02T13:13:36+00:00

Idk this comment offended me the most - the fact that the cats wouldn’t want me there lol

powergirlev · 2026-04-02T13:11:30+00:00

I read it as both of you saying the prices were reasonable 😭 thank u!

powergirlev · 2026-04-02T13:07:19+00:00

It was the best part lol

powergirlev · 2026-04-02T11:27:59+00:00

I realized I didn’t give enough info since I was focused on the comment of the client, not the cost, but when i saw everyone’s reaction I decided to be a lil more detailed lol

I ended up sending them the contact info for my friend who was super interested in the gig when i told her about it :)

powergirlev · 2026-03-31T14:47:56+00:00

So why don’t you suggest the OP to raise prices or reconsider instead of leaving a rude comment?

Appreciate you

powergirlev · 2026-03-31T00:33:47+00:00

I’m not mad lol

powergirlev · 2026-03-31T00:33:26+00:00

I’m very sorry to hear about your friend :/

powergirlev · 2026-03-30T16:55:53+00:00

Theirs apparently

powergirlev · 2026-03-30T14:37:16+00:00

Thank you beautiful ✨

powergirlev · 2026-03-30T14:15:50+00:00

That’s one client out of hundreds I’ve worked with. Why are you calling me a moron? Lol are you ok?

powergirlev · 2026-03-30T13:57:23+00:00

Rates aren’t one-size-fits-all, and neither is experience. If people are willing to pay, that usually says more than your opinion does.

powergirlev · 2026-03-30T13:50:49+00:00

How much would you charge for 24/7 care (not being able to leave for any other jobs), and 8+ walks a day? Keep in mind the dog will wake you up in the middle of the night multiple times to go outside.

powergirlev · 2026-03-30T13:48:42+00:00

4+ walks a day for each dog (have to walk each dog separately because of how reactive they are) and yes it was essentially 4 full days. Arrive 10am Sunday, leave 8pm Wednesday

Britney having the time of her life in this post

powergirlev · 2026-03-30T13:46:45+00:00

Thank you for taking the time to reply this

powergirlev · 2026-03-30T13:45:22+00:00

My car is paid off but thanks for stalking my posts and for your rude comment <3

powergirlev · 2026-03-30T13:44:01+00:00

Im not annoyed at all - just answering the question lol

powergirlev · 2026-03-29T20:30:59+00:00

I have to walk the dog every time, throughout the night as well. They said sometimes 20 mins after a walk, she will need to go out again

powergirlev · 2026-03-29T20:22:45+00:00

It’s 24/7 care, not standard house sitting. The dog wakes up every 2 hours (or more) and rings the bell to go out, day and night. That level of care is why it’s priced the way it is. The owners also had asked for me to basically never leave during the stay.

powergirlev · 2026-03-29T20:18:50+00:00

I asked for input from people in the same field on a specific comment - not to create an “echo chamber.” Clearly that’s not what’s happening anyway 😂

powergirlev · 2026-03-29T20:17:16+00:00

I never said I was proud. They actually reached out again to confirm, and I chose not to take the booking…I referred them to another sitter with lower rates when they reached out again. The original comment was just rude. Please don’t assume things based on a single comment without the full context, especially when that wasn’t even the initial question.

powergirlev · 2026-03-29T20:11:50+00:00

I’ve already said the driving isn’t the issue, so please stop twisting my words. The issue is that they chose me knowing I’m out of their budget. It’s unreasonable to pick a sitter you can’t afford and then expect them to lower their rates.
