I just had a sitter cancel my late July sit. I appreciate that it’s not last minute and I still have time.
I do have an issue as she told me that she will be “out of the area” during my sit. I don’t even know what that means. She isn’t a traveling nurse, works for the military, or working in entertainment.
She didn’t say she had an emergency. So I take it that another opportunity came along and she went with it.
The thing is I don’t like how I have to unconfirm the sit, even though she is the one canceling. I know that TH says they are tracking this internally, but that only works for the owners/sitters who complain.
I wish that sitters could unconfirm/cancel sits. Also, there should be a way that owners/sitters can see that members are canceling sits on the profile. That can show how reliable a sitter/owner is. They have this on AirBnb and this has deterred me from engaging with unreliable homeowners.
