Also be cool if we didn’t have to redo search filters every three seconds. Wish they could just save.

Only 3 month purchase options

You are not able to connect with sitters until you upgrade to premium. There is no plan shorter than 3 months for nearly $100.

The quality of sitters was much worse than other apps. Of 14 that applied, only 8 would respond to interviews and of those only 1 actually showed up. The rest no call, no showed. We hired her and she has been disappointing and unreliable. Use urban sitter instead.
