All I ask is that you don’t use a messaging function or inbox as the center of commerce, like Rover does. It get really confusing and annoying. Messaging is for messages. Period. And the client and sitter should have the option of making said messages appear in their text or email inbox if they wish.

You could also add booking reminders via SMS so XX days before the booking starts they get a text reminding them of it and if any changes need to be made to submit a reschedule request!

Agreed, this is essential!

This should be top of the list — there is also no way to view past communication with clients currently and this would solve that as well.
I’m moving to scritches from Rover and just realized there is no messaging/chat part of the “app”.
Can this get added please??? This is how we schedule all of our meet and greets and text our clients. I really don’t want to do that through email if possible.

I use WhatsApp business! That way I can set up my pet sitting business, add a profile pic and also connect my insta / Facebook pages, works a treat!
