answered a question | Meet and Greet - Would you book it? No, I would never book dogs without a meet and greet first. And no to the second question. I would meet them downstairs, told them this is where I live, described your home and apartment amenities related to dog space, period. I would have found a neutral space to meet and talk. If they wanted to see inside my place, I would have said, “sure, next time when you bring the dogs”. I would never show my bedroom, even if requested. Boundaries. If the meet and greet was arranged with the expectations to meet the dogs, then she should have texted or called you before showing up and told you about the change of plans. I do all my meets and greets outside and they never enter my home on a meet and greet. Granted, I have a huge yard and that’s why they are seeking to book with me. And I have a strong background and profile, so maybe they don’t feel they need to see the inside of my home, because my profile has photos of dogs inside. I do however invite them in when they drop off and pick up their dog on a booking. And no one has ever requested to “check out” the inside of my house. The main purpose of a meet and greet is to ensure the dogs and humans are a good fit. You could try adding photos of the inside of your home on your profile and if anyone inquires, you can point them there. Bottom line: if it makes you uncomfortable, just say I’m sorry I’m not comfortable with that; always pay attention to red flags - not bringing the dogs. |
