My trip is about 6 weeks and I have had only one sitter apply but it didn’t work out. I live in a condominium in Asheville, NC and have one cat, Piper. Perhaps the condo is unusual for your site? How can I attract sitters?

Add your listing to the thread so we can see it and we can help you figure that out. 6 weeks away still gives you time, but it’s always good to think of a plan B in case things don’t work out.

Please add your profile so we can see if there are suggestions to improve your listing. A cat sit is one of the more attractive sits for people wanting a little more freedom than a dog sit. You still have plenty of time but i know its stressfull for sure. You can ask a moderator to help add your …

I have stayed in two condos on here so I don’t think others as well have problems with that aspect of the sit. Are you in a very competitive area. Listing your profile on here, the sitters may be able to point something out that may be helpful. Good luck!

I’ve sat in a number of condos, so doubt that’s a problem, especially not with a cat. With a dog, some sitters might prefer a house, with easy access to the outdoors.

For one, under responsibilities, you mention the cat clinic if she isn’t peeing after 24 hours. I’ve never seen this as a concern before…

How do I add listing, profile or thread as some have suggested? Also I have retaken photos but site is not allowing me to delete and add more photos. It wants me to save deletes but not sure how to do this. Thanks! Kimberly and Piper

you have to scroll to the bottom for the save button sometimes. another common issue is that when you go in to make changes on old pics, you 1st have to choose the room that goes with that photo from the drop down menu before you can even delete the old pics. So choose room on old pics, save. Then…

I have worked on my listing, added better photos, even included couples when I really want a solo person, yet no applications yet. Thanks for all the suggestions…is there anything else I can do? I am going away on a retreat where I won’t have access to my phone for a few days. How can I let applic…
