Communicating

Hello! Is there any way I can comment on a new listing that overlaps with a confirmed date I have?

Hi @zchorses
Unfortunately not without applying for a sit.

There’s an existing chain to discuss the fact that it is no longer permitted to apply for sits with overlapping dates. I don’t have the link but you should be able to search for it via “double booking” or “overlapping sits”

The current work around is to have a second account (which makes sense for pairing sitters but probably not individuals) that would allow you to discuss. Barring that, the HO would have to reach out to you or have their dates set so that they do not conflict with your start and end times to create an overlap.

Welcome @zchorses

You may find this thread relevant to your question.

This is not a good policy. TH does not help with overlap issues. We should be able to send messages through the platform. We are adults after all and can handle it.

Thank you all. Would be helpful if we could at least have some communication!
