children? Pah
it is a danger to everyone, regardless of age.
I am fully mobile, no issues with my health, and I would have struggled to hold onto the door if it was windy, without stepping on loose slab, or falling over the open edge.
Not the home owner’s fault, but the builder’s, however it is the home owner’s responsibility now.
Tangentially, this reminds me of a home we owned previously, where we had a patio installed. The contractor stupidly installed a paver jutting out where it could easily trip someone coming outside. They were giving me grief about fixing it, so I pointed out that I’d raised the issue with them in writing and they’d refused to fix it in writing. If anyone fell and sued me or my home insurer, I’d share what I’d documented and urge them sue the construction company for negligence as well. They sent out a repair crew the next day.
10 pages of instructions would of been a no for me.
10 pages of instructions.
this was only apparent 2 days before the sit when I received the Welcome Guide, once again showing the importance of a Welcome Guide
to be fair, she probably felt she had done well, and covered everything!
I thought the 10 pages was something you didn’t see till you arrived. If she gave it to you before the sit and you agreed to the sit that is OK then. I had one or two have special instructions at their home not mentioned in the welcome guide or profile. If I knew ahead of time of these extra requirements I would have declined.
I wasn’t happy being ruled by Alexa, but as long as I could open front door the old fashioned way with a key, well a key fob, I could compromise on that.
I received (and gave) a 5 star review for this sit. I am confident the home owner will make some adjustments before she next has a sitter.
