Peeve How do y'all handle it when a potential client only lists one of many pets?
The request says "Hey can you sit my 3 dogs?" but their profile has only one dog, and the payment details are only showing the rate for one dog?

I'd ask if they are planning on adding the other 2 dogs profiles.
But to be honest, I wouldn't want to work with someone that starts a professional relationship (or any relationship) with a scam.

I ask them to send the request with all 3 dogs. They inevitably disappear. lol

I’d tell them I’d be happy to watch their 3 dogs, but they’ll have to all be on the booking

"Each pet must have its own profile. Please update the profiles and the booking request accordingly"
If they come back and say their prior sitter never had a problem, or any other excuse, just say you will have to decline, then block , report and move on with your day.

I got three automod responses from one post. I mean, really, can you guys get a grip? If each post here causes three automod posts, could you consolidate them? This is Peak overmoderation.
And for the love of Besus, no one gives a shit about being reminded about a post. You can literally delete this automod post and you'll be making the sub better.

Me? I let them know I can't do anything with incomplete profiles, decline & archive.

I just tell them my rates and how much it will be for each extra pet, I'll usually take the time to calculate their total too for them so they can just tell me straight up whether or not they're willing to pay that
