New trend asking sitters to pay for utilities

@MaggieUU; @Lokstar ; @Silversitters

Thank you for your feedback and suggestions! I’ve felt conflicted because the host was nice friendly, and encouraged me to turn on heater (2 days in) via text when she checked in to inquire about how things were going. *However, I was a bit taken a back when I learned this after the fact (literally reading through the “Welcome Guide” after they left). :astonished:
I’d also wasn’t aware of the “Welcome Guide” via TH inbox, since all previous sits only provided hard copy of care instructions (or via text).

However, she also failed to mention (in post) that senior dog is deaf, likely has urinary incontinence, and experiences seizures!! :open_mouth: I was mortified thinking it was a medical emergency, until I sent text & it was normalized (“He does get a bit stiff in his old age & then gets over it”). :woozy_face:

Again she was very nice, so didn’t know how to incorporate these concerns in my review.
