That’s what I plan to do too. As long as the client understands, I’m still willing to watch their other pets.

Ana- I love that idea! Thanks I may just do that. Jennifer- yeah I could see that being why they don’t have the option. I wonder if they included an extra note at the top of the page for when people are booking for those types of animals it would be enough to include them..?

I figured as much. I honestly just wanted to see other people’s opinions and see if it’s something people have ever seen rover express interest in the past for. Since I just started not too long ago, I wouldn’t know.

This is what I’d like to do! I’d love to have more critter clients and I’d happily take them in my home but I feel like it’s hard for critter parents to find me being as they can’t search for critter care. I like the idea of the cat rate for them!

Yeah I agree that it would be hard to draw a line but maybe even just adding like 3 more categories: small pets(that would maybe include reptiles, mammals and birds), fish, and farm animals?

asked a question Will Rover ever update to include small pet care?

I'm relatively new to Rover but I would love to care for small pets in addition to cats and dogs. I find that it's really hard to market towards them and the best I can do is include it in my description and tag line. What I'm curious is if Rover has any plans to set it up a little better for booking. I personally have 2 chinchillas and 2 hamsters and it's extremely hard trying to find a sitter on this site that could watch my pets. If there was a button to check for small pets and fish like there is for cat care, it would be EXTREMELY helpful.

I also think it would be nice as a sitter to be able to set different prices for my services for the little ones. I don't think it's fair to charge as much for a hamster or fish as you would for a dog. With smaller pets, often all that's needed is a water bottle change and food fill. Nothing like the attention you would have to give to a cat or dog.

Just some thoughts as a new Rover user and critter mom.
