My sitter cancelled

With only five days to go my sitter has cancelled.

Details removed advertising a sit as per the Community Rules.

Fingers crossed you find another sitter before your trip. It is always stressful when a sit is cancelled last minute by either a sitter or the host. Unfortunately as a sitter we’ve had the same a couple of times this year and it causes unnecessary anxiety.

Hi @Allennash

Welcome to the Forum!

Sorry that you had a cancellation.

You can post your listing in the “Last Minute Category” of the Forum which is for sits that will begin within the next 7 days.

And if you have not already done so, you can boost your listing so that your dates will appear as ‘new’ and on top of the TrustedHousesitter page.

If this is a Thanksgiving sit, I would STRONGLY suggest you find other alternatives as it can be very difficult to find a holiday sitter. If you have “premium” contact THS NOW and start looking for a paid sitter.

Do you have premium membership? If so, you’ll be entitled to submit a claim under the sit cancellation plan:

Did your sitter cancel due to extraordinary circumstances? When unfortunate things happen, it’s necessary for both sitters and hosts to have a plan B.

Here’s a link to the T&Cs relating to cancellations by sitter:
