How can I stop getting more applicants?

You can unpublish your ad and continue communicating with the existing applicants on your Messages page. You can invite a sitter to house sit for you from there as well. You will find an 'unpublish' button for your ad on your Dashboard page in your Mindahome control panel. Also, on the edit page for your ad (the Main Listing page) you will see a 'Save and unpublish' button on the bottom of the form.

To appoint your sitter, you need to:
  1. go to your ‘Messages’ page
  2. click on the conversation you have been having with your sitter
  3. click the 'Invite sitter to accept' button found beneath the messages.
Your sitter will then click the ‘Accept’ button that will appear at the bottom of their conversation with you. This confirms the appointment on our system.
