Love the service (so far), hate the app! I've had several issues working in the app. Most common (as in they happen frequently) are: 1) tried to schedule an interview/job of some kind, finished entering time and hit enter, the whole thing disappears and takes me back to my account so I have to start over. 2) Enter the app and it won't connect to my account or show my activity 3) perform a search, go to message a sitter and when I go back it takes me out to my home so I have to search again.

The app worked well for me for a year, and then I was removed from it with no explanation. Apparently, part of the Terms of Service includes banning without reason. For me, this was 1 day prior to a week of scheduled jobs, so don't rely on just this app. Other apps seem to have more reasonable appeal options. Sad way to end. Update: since 1/16, I have not heard back from support.

The service urbansitter provides is much needed and while not cheap the annual fee is reasonable if you're using the service with regularity. The app, on the other hand, is absolutely onerous and painful to use. Graphics and UX issues, app is totally unintuitive and frustrating. I often use this app when I travel and there's no way to store multiple locations. I want to research and reach out to potential sitters a few weeks ahead of my departure and there isn't any way to save searches.

I'm not sure why there's now a fee to work. The work isn't even consistent enough to afford such a fee. Such a shameful situation to have to pay to work for someone. However while I can understand you're reasoning for trying to maintain your app, your methods of collection are ridiculous. I was under the impression that your fees were covered in other ways (ads). Why couldn't a much smaller fee for the use of your platform be worked out instead of a forced one? I've got to delete my profile now.

This app does not work well. The user interface is clunky and confusing, and it makes paying caregivers extremely difficult... You'd think this part, in particular, was something they would want to get right. For as much money as I pay every three months to be part of this community, you'd think they could hire an app developer to fix it. I'm seriously considering cancelling and going it alone for babysitters just so I don't have to deal with it anymore.

You can't contact or book a sitter without paying the nearly $40 monthly fee. Even worse, they don't inform you of that until after you've set up a profile, posted a job, searched sitters, typed out your message to a sitter, etc. This app has potential, but they need to be more up front about the cost of the service.
