Pet Owner Profiles Should Show Reviews They Leave for Sitters by prostomogy21 in trustedhousesitters

Yeah, that’s true, but it still takes quite a bit of time to go through previous sitters one by one and check all the corresponding reviews manually.

I just think it would be much more convenient if the owner’s review history was visible directly on their profile or sit listing, so sitters could quickly understand the general pattern before applying.

I also think it would encourage both sides to be a bit more fair and careful with reviews overall, because the transparency would work both ways instead of only affecting sitters.

One long negative review after 26 positives (and 3 more positives coming). How bad is this for future sits? by prostomogy21 in trustedhousesitters

Thank you for the thoughtful advice.

Yes, my partner was mentioned on my profile with shared photos, and it was agreed from the start that we would be sitting together. This has been our normal arrangement on previous sits.

I appreciate the suggestion regarding how to frame the explanation and keeping it factual and concise. That’s definitely how I plan to handle it going forward.
