Rate advice?

I have prior petsitting experience, but have officially been a Rover sitter for a year now. I started with low rates and have raised them a few times by a few dollars each time. I'm now one of the sitters with the most reviews and repeat clients in my area, and recently raised my housesitting rate to be on the high end of my area. (My drop-in rates are average.)

I decided to raise my housesitting rate because I feel my reviews reflect the quality of care I offer over others, and also due to the time and energy commitment I've discovered that housesitting requires. I feel my housesitting price is fair, but am worried that because other sitters are priced lower, it will appear that I'm overcharging.

I've also looked at local boarding places and I am charging a little more than those as well -- reason being is because I'm offering the additional benefit that pets can stay in their own homes, I bring in mail, water plants, take care of trash, etc. and provide that sense of security of looking after their house.

I know this is a personal decision, but I am curious to hear if there are other sitters that have charged on the high end for their area and been successful. Maybe it's one of those things I'll just have to wait and see. I appreciate any thoughts!!
