Rover is a great concept
Rover is a great concept but we've been unable to form any lasting connections with walkers or sitters and basically have to start the whole vetting process over again each time we need a service. A lot of people with listings don't respond, have out of date availability or cancel at the last minute. I've requested to Rover time and again that they create more barriers to listing and do more quality checks to address these issues, similar to how AirBNB has managed their hosting platform. Maybe the more reliable people are just out of my price range ($60 for a walk is reaching).
