commented answer Repeat Clients Only?

My problem is is that the Repeat Only option does not even show up for me

asked a question Repeat Clients Only?

I want to set my dog boarding to repeat clients only. However, on my app and on the computer, this option does not show up for me under services when I go to change it. It only lets me turn it off or on. Any help?

commented answer Bad owner experience?

Sadly, I think that is my only option as well. In my texts I always said "thank you" and apologized for the hassle. Thank you sir for the help.

commented answer Bad owner experience?

No, her profile did not mention this second dog. I did see him during the meet and greet, but she told me to ignore him because I wasn't taking care of that dog.

, which i'm hoping will help a lot tonight. The other sitter was having problems with this dog and asked the owner what she should do, and the owner said that we should switch dogs. I had no information about the care needed for this dog, and if i did i would not have accepted the switch. (cont)

commented answer Bad owner experience?

No, she only listed one dog on her profile. When I met to the meet and greet, the other dog was there, but she told me that he would be going somewhere else during their vacation and I wouldn't have to worry about him. She thankfully called the vet and got a prescription for a sedative

asked a question Bad owner experience?

I am house sitting a dog for a week, and only a few days in things went bad. The owners have another dog that went with another sitter, and I had a different dog. A few days in the owner texts me to say that her other sitter is having problems and wants to switch dogs. I agreed because I thought the other dog would be okay once he came home. Wrong. The owner did NOT tell me that the other dog had extreme separation anxiety, including howling the entire night. He also needs 4 medications in the morning and another 3 at night. He also needs to wear a diaper if left alone for more than one hour. The original dog I was sitting did not have any of these problems. I know now that I should not have accepted to switch dogs, but the owner did not inform me at all. They are on vacation many states away and I still have another 4 days with this dog. I do not get any sleep during the night because he howls the entire time. I've been texting the owner constantly asking her what to do and she does not have an answer. Am I wrong for being upset?

asked a question Do bookings change your calendar availability?

Hi, I have many dog boarding requests for August, none of which are confirmed yet, but a lot that will be confirmed closer to the dates. However, i've gotten other requests for bookings on some of the same days which i've had to turn down due to only being able to house one dog at a time. If I book these requests now, will my calendar change my dog boarding availability to 0 or will nothing change? If yes, I will want to book my requests asap so other clients know that I cannot board their dog. Thanks in advance
