Rover—Dog Sitters & Walkers - Latest Quality Issues

Great service but app has bugs
The app wouldn't open in my iPhone 13 for about a year til just this week so it's good for now but I don't rely on it. Great service though (in a browser)

They charge too much fee $
You can't charge 20-25% of the total and expect people not to just exchange details and do it over personal contact information. Someone will eventually make a competing app that you only have to pay for the background screening, and the app makes money off Ads (pet stores, toy companies, dog food brands etc). I love the rover concept but they are too greedy when it comes to payment fees.

Privacy Issues
This app collects information before you realize it. Stopped when it requested credit card in advance. In order to delete account they request a copy of your ID. They didn't request it to set up account. Don't download this app.

Not Intuitive
Overall, the app has been really helpful as a platform to find dog walkers. But, even after several years, I still struggle to navigate it. I wonder how much better it would be if Steve Jobs was in charge of designing it. JK… sort of.

High Customer Abrasion
I just wanted to find a pet sitter for my cats, and this app is demanding that I fill out a big long questionnaire before it will even let me reach out to a pet sitter near me. And then it loses my location and tells me that the pet sitter in question is too far from me. Pet owners and Sitters alike should know that this site does more to impede the connection between a customer and a sitter than to facilitate it.

$50 to be able to register on the application as a Dog sitter??? ?? I thought it was a bad joke, you're completely out of reality! We register to be able to make ends meet and have additional income, not to get poorer. 2 years ago these fees did not exist. The shame of using people's kindness to line your pockets
