A couple applied twice for our sit but didn’t answer my messages either time so I’ve declined them twice now. I don’t know why they bother. We’ve finally received a few applicants for our sit.

That’s great 
Oh gosh, Patty is adorable. Saved your sit for future. I’d apply for this one, but I’ll be on my own vacay at that time. Your area sounds lovely! Agree with others to add more about the area. Glad to see you have 2 applications, sad one of them isnt me! Ha!
How long after they applied and didn’t reply to your message did you decline them, and what do you gain by declining them? Unless your application queue is full then what’s the point, maybe they’re busy and just didn’t get a chance to get back to you right away.
