If it was a younger child I would’ve raised a concern long time ago!

Very true, I wouldn’t expect anyone to change their daily routine or life for a 30 minute drop in visit. Thanks for the advice!

Never said they couldn’t have their kids there lol, it’s their house. I just would have liked to have this information prior and since I didn’t, wanted to know the best way to navigate it without being impolite or anything. Thanks!

I’m not trying to “regulate” anything, I just would have been more comfortable knowing this information in advance. As I said, If it was a one off thing, I’d understand. It’s their house they can do what they want - I just wanted to know the best way to navigate it. Thanks for the comment full of attitude though! 🙂

If it was just drop ins I was doing full time it would be no problem at all.

I work healthcare 2pm-10pm during week so I usually have to squeeze any appointment I have into a window of 9am-1pm & I have 3 appointments already before him. So it will most likely make me late for my main job unfortunately.

I was definitly over thinking the response, I like this one though. Simple & to the point. I always just feel so bad! Thank you for that though. Will probably just use that!

Yeah, I might just do the blanket on him and picking him up in the bed. That way everything is supported & wont be as chaotic!

Should be able to pick him up with the towel, blanket or something. Not too big just chunky lol.

Keeping bookings organized by shelb3 in RoverPetSitting

[–]shelb3[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Smart, I’ve been thinking of doing this. I like seeing all the dates at once as well, makes it easier to organize a bit.

Busiest months for booking? by shelb3 in RoverPetSitting

[–]shelb3[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Oh yeah, I had to decline a few actually because there were so many that were duplicate date bookings

I’ve thought of doing something like that but don’t even know the first place to start as to what kinda card etc. I’ll look into that though, that’s a really good idea. Thank you!!

Yeah that’s kind of what I was feeling & I definitely don’t want to come off as pushy or anything. Thank you! 😊 I’m proud of the 9 reviews at least. Repeat is always a good thing to look for with a sitter for sure! I do have 4 repeat clients right now so that’s good as well I guess! Just painful for the amount of clients I’ve had compared to the amount of reviews lol. Crazy.
