answered a question Did you ask apartment permission to dog sit?

It is better to get permission. I lived in an apartment 1 year ago. I did ask for permision at the first time, like if it is ok for me to have my friend's dog stay for a week or two. They said yes, that is ok. But the staff saw me time to time have more dogs, they requested me to register the pet and pay the pet fees. I also have to follow the rules of pet, like no aggressive dog breed, only 2 dogs per household...

answered a question Extended stay discounts?

I am not really willing to offer extended stay discount, because it is the same amount of quality work everyday. It is also challenging to sit a dog such a long time (more than 4 weeks), it does wear my phyche sometimes.

answered a question For clients with multiple dogs, what do you charge?

I give $10 off (per night) f for the second dog.

answered a question Why are some owners so rude to not answer after a meet and greet which I think went very well?

Usually I open my schedule, if I receive another request, I send a message to previous potential customer ask if they are still interested in taking my service becuase I receive another request for the same days, I would like to confirm the stay before I accept another request.

commented answer Do I pay taxes quarterly or yearly as a 1099 "employee" ?

Paypal will not send you any Tax form unless you have over 200 transactions/year or like above mention $20K(which I am not sure if it is right amount)

commented answer Is there a way to send a client a video of their pet?

I made videos by my phone up to 2 minutes, then send it through the Rover App with no problem. I don't record the video through the App.

Do you use Rover App on the phone? You can add photos or videos from your phone

asked a question Can I claim my house as home office for dog sitting service when doing my Tax?

Can I claim my house as home office for dog sitting service when doing my Tax? If yes, how can I calculate the expenses?

I have the same questions, I uploaded some pictures I didn't want to public, hope Rover can change the policy.

answered a question Can I tip my pet sitter?

I don't expect tips. I tell them it is not necessary, I will be appreciated and accecpt it if the pet parents insist.

answered a question What are experiences with no prior Meet & Greet?

I didn't do greet and meet for the first two stays. I asked all the information about the dog, what breed, how big, age, house-trained or not, friendly to other pets or not, their rountines, what they like to do... The dogs are really nice and sweet, really good stays. One of the guest rebooked me several times later.
