Available for half days only?

Is there any way to indicate in the calendar that I am only available for half a day or certain hours? My work schedule is second shift and sporadic, I would be available to do walks/drop-ins during the morning but not the evening. I don't want to limit myself by choosing marking dates as unavailable but I also don't want to turn people down who see that I am available that day.

If I am unable to indicate this in the calendar, I would appreciate any recommendations/tips!

Thanks in advance

Unfortunately this seems to be a flaw with the Rover scheduling system and should be changed. As of now, you can only set your availability per weekdays or weekends, not per specific day. For many of us, this job works around another one, and as not everyone works a steady 9-5 type of job, the calendar should reflect that. For example, I have full-day availability on Wednesday’s, but only half-day availability every other weekday. I should be able to set my calendar to align with my specific day-to-day schedule.

It seems the only way to get around this is to write something in your “about me” section and hope that potential clients read it. But it really does need to be updated on Rover’s end. Kind of ridiculous that we can’t specify specific times, especially when clients are particular about what times they need us.
