No one’s making you do that.
Presumably you use ‘someone else’s’ bath towels-?
Ah…so good to hear from you rayray not least for your curiosity about a topic I posted with sincerity. And I truly, trustedly 
meant the bit about Trusted Housesitters — I’m very proud of its B Corp affiliation, btw — donating a portion of merchandise (if there were any) profits to animal welfare charities. I did see a post elsewhere in the Forum about sweatshirts with TH logo-?
I just think you haven’t understood or searched the topics for what is actually needed on the site. There have been many discussions before. Just because I don’t agree doesn’t mean I’m negative.
What Features Would You Like to See on THS?
try putting this in the search
You presume wrong
you joined this site only in the past day, and already you are being rude to anyone who disagrees with you. great start.
Thanks for your kind reply, Cathie. If TH were so inclined, I’d wager it could make both of these wishes come true 
It certainly is a welcoming place.
I would like to see an option to send suggestions on the THS site instead of ideas collected here and then sent. Not all THS members are on the forum. Maybe they could do a suggestion drive quarterly but honestly, I don’t think that they are interested in members input and have their own business model. I think the control I have to manage my membership is limited. I say this mostly because I would to organize my messages received on THS and tailor what sit opportunities I see.
Couldn’t agree more, EDD! My motivation for joining the Forum was just that: To get the attention of the powers that be at TH — which doesn’t seem to be easy to do all…gatekeeping behind bots and prompts for “how did we do?” reviews just don’t satisfy for this member
Top of my mind in this was my good feeling about TH earning BCorp status just one year ago. (Here’s a look at that for anyone who sees this post.) This seems frustratingly different from — as you put it so well in your comment: “I don’t think that they are interested in members input and have their own business model.”
YES !!!
a TH branded robe would be fun to toddle around in
NO !!!
I think THS did try selling branded merch in the past …..this link says “store is now closed”
In the past they have given THS hoodies to competition winners and when the forum was launched you could win a merchandise bundle for creating a new thread
I appreciate your replies, thank you. And, yes, I might make a purchase or a few—especially if at least a portion or percentage of the proceeds was earmarked for an animal welfare charity (hint, hint!).
Well it’s certainly subtle 
Perhaps you could have your other suggestion printed on the back.
Good idea, I tried. I get an error message due to the length of the phrase.
“The design is outside the print area” 
Order the XXL or perhaps shorten it to
‘Don’t believe everything you read’
I really want a meet-up option, like on Couchsurfing, to find other pet sitters in my area to meet up with.
Let’s hope TH sees and considers this idea, which may appeal to other subscribers, too. Maybe another Suggestion Box item: A subscriber (member) survey.
