I don’t even write reviews in fact this is my first time ever writing one for an app. I’m appalled at the fact that they charge you $90 just to sign up and apply to a job, mind you, you’re not even guaranteed the position. And based on these reviews I WILL NOT be paying for this ponzy scheme of a website. Why would you not allow a monthly plan? Charging yearly is absurd and with a non refundable policy is literally a scheme within itself! Not a free trial or nothing to even test out if I truly like the app. Multiple reviews state they weren’t even granted a position and I’m glad I checked before even considering buying. To anyone reading this you’re better off on sitter city. I suggest you incorporate a monthly fee rather than yearly if you genuinely care about customer feedback.
