What service is this for? I see you only house sit or do drop-ins/walks?
If this is a booking to house sit, absolutely no way should you just accept without a M&G. There is so much to be gained by seeing where you'll stay, meeting the dog and seeing if you get along, finding bout what is expected of you and how you'll access the home, etc. Way too many horror stories posted here from sitters who have encountered filthy premises, neglected pets, very demanding owners who expect the sitter to do a variety of chores, animals who can't be controlled, etc. All of those things would be known if a sitter insisted on having a M&G and did his/her due diligence.
If the request is for a walk/drop-in, it is still a good idea to do a M&G because you need to make arrangements with the owner about how to access the home and what they expect you to do, especially with the drop-in, which isn't a walk.
Whatever feels right to you I would think that if you’re scheduling the meet and greet you want to get to know them first so I would say after in that case
I was wondering the same. I was going to wait to book until after the m&g. But there are other clients still reaching out for me to sit on the same weekend. Can I remove my availability on a day once I’m talking with a client? Or does that screw up being able to book that client after m&g? Thanks!
Good luck ! Rover is out here scamming us! I’ve earned almost $300 weekly and the most I’ve gotten is $134. Not to mention Rover takes my tips too ! It’s sickening , I suggest you go on Facebook groups and get the word out for your services and do it that way !
