Is there a place to review a dog?

Hi Mary, Many of us have endured similar. but at this time Rover does not allow sitters to read each other's reviews. You can review the dog after the stay, but only Rover sees those. You can write dog notes, but only you can view those.

This demonstrates why I'd advise it's in your interests to do a meet & greet, even if that means turning down last minute requests. Although m&g doesn't always uncover all issues. To save your home & sanity, many use baby or pet gates or crates to keep dogs in a more easily cleaned area when not observed or use a leash to tether the dog to you, so wherever you go the dog goes, to prevent accidents.

There may be a couple alternative methods to learn more about a prospective dog. One possibility is if you hover over the dog photo album, you may see dates, first name and last initial that the dog stayed with another sitter and you could contact the sitter. Another option is if you chose to join the facebook groups mentioned, maybe other sitters in your area will exchange info.

At the time of booking, you could have charged an additional amount because that is well over the 24 hour period of 1 overnight (drop off 9 AM Saturday= pick up 9 AM Sunday)... 9AM-3 PM= 6 additional hours. Since you don't offer Day Care separately, you could charge partial overnight care for the overage (i.e your overnight is $30, so maybe $10 or $15).

Is he a puppy? Most of us have a Puppy rate for this very reason, which is higher. Also, $12/ day? I would look into raising my rates overall. Hang in there!
