Fair enough. Could you provide some sort of criteria or anecdote describing how you found your current dog sitter? It might help rover.com build profiles of trustworthy individuals and make their service a viable option for dog owners like yourself, which can only be a good thing.

I'm imagining that at some point protective pet owners accept that someone from the internet is capable of providing for their pet. That sort of customer feedback goes a long way in shaping useful services.
