My prior membership appeared to be canceled. The new pricing is not as good, and incremental add-ons for more and more money make the site feel less credible.

Very few have replied
Most are not immunized against COVID, which is very important to me.
I'm regretting paying money.
I've had better luck with other sites

Felt a bit deceiving that I couldn't even *read* an application without upgrading (language implied upgrading was required to reply)... then I paid to upgrade and got an error page instead of a confirmation

Had an issue with signing up and couldn't for the life of me find a phone number to get a hold of someone to help. I was kicked out of my account after paying 155. The oddest experience thus far on a sitting site.

When I click on someone it keeps taking me to the same page, info regarding the care check. When I hit, "got it", nothing happens.

It has too many 'selling' marketing steps. Too annoying. And its too expensive.

Stay away!
February 21, 2022

They will bring up inaccurate information on you and refuse to fix it. They tried to tell me that I can't have an account to use their care services, NOT WORK FOR THEM, just to use their services because of something supposedly on my record. My record is completely clean and always has been. I have multiple security clearances of varying levels and have for years. I even tried to contact them to have them fix it and they absolutely refuse! They don't even care that they have and use inaccurate information. STAY AWAY FROM THIS SITE! Just imagine what else they're lying about if they don't even care about having accurate information.

Just advise of fees upfront. Don't surprise someone with it after several steps.

After figuring out the payment plans, I found the care.com website to be easy to negotiate.
I think that I may have found a Caregiver who can take my dogs out AND take care of me.

It would help if there weren't so many add-on charges and renewals that were automatic. I don't need a big commitment of time in here, just to find someone that will hopefully work.

I'd rather you have ads than have to pay for this service, just to message someone.
