Can I speak with, message or meet a Sitter before booking?

We totally understand that meeting a Sitter before the actual booking brings peace of mind. You’re not alone in this!

  • Why not schedule a one-hour get-together while you’re at home? When making a request, just pop a note in the ‘Special Instructions’ letting the Sitter know you’d like a little meet and greet. Many Parents do this with a few Sitters and then add them to their favorites for easy future bookings.

  • Need a Sitter for a specific date? No problem! When making a request for that date, just ask in the 'Special Instructions' for the Sitter to be available for a meet-up in the evening or weekend before the sit. Easy as that!

  • You're also welcome to send a message to a Sitter through the app to set up a meeting time. If the vibe isn’t right, no worries at all. You can easily cancel the reservation and start fresh with a new request.

Remember, for everyone’s safety and comfort, certain rules apply before starting a chat, so do take a peek at our FAQ on chat rules for Basic and Premium Parents. Your ease and confidence in choosing a Sitter are what we care about most!
