Struggling with Finding Sitters

I only sit for cats so no opinions on your content. Just one call out though to possibly explain low applicants…the way the search functionality works, if someone is searching for ‘dogs’ in your area, you don’t appear due to the other pets.

It’s only if they search for ‘Any pets’ OR ‘dogs’ + ‘poultry’ + ‘small pets’ that you appear.

Some searchers might be very specific in looking for any opportunities in your area and choose ‘any pets’ while others search for ‘dogs’ and think, ok, here’s 6 options for those dates, let me go and apply for those. (And they may be fine with chickens and rabbits, it’s just that they clicked ‘dogs’ and never needed to search beyond that.)
