Rover Updates-Sitter Status?

Hi All,

How do you like the new addition to the sitter profile search? I am a bit indifferent. First off, how accurate is it? I logged in then logged out and when i went back in, it said my last log in was 17 Hours ago. Clearly not accurate. When selecting a sitter, I did appreciate the transparency how frequent the sitter updated their calendar and was active on the site. However, is it really necessary to include when their last booking and how many people actually looked at their profile? Kinda of reminds me of a hotel booking tool or airline booking tool "1 seat left!!"..

I can take it or leave it personally. Except I really dislike the last booking and profile views. I mean, that really isn't necessary.

Not all the info is showing up on everyone in my search rankings.. a handful of people show the 'last booking,' only one on the first page shows 'last contacted,' and everyone shows the profile views and last active (I'm surprised so many people haven't been active in so long!)

Is the last booking the last day that you had a stay or the last time you booked a stay? Because it might be useful information if it gave you an idea of whether or not you currently have a dog in your care, but it's meaningless if it's just the last time you booked a stay for the future - my last booking is for a stay in April, and what good does it do a potential client to know I had a recent booking if it's not during the time period they're looking for? ...Not that mine's showing up, anyway. Apparently a week ago is outside the "recent" window.
