Anyone use care.com for Pet Sitter - The DIS Discussion Forums

I need to find a pet sitter. Care.com has pet sitters but in order to contact them you need to pay $35 for 1 month membership. DH says its a scam. Anyone know anything about it? Thanks.

Ask your Vet for a recommendation. I have two that are in my area that are excellent but I don't think they are in your town? Think I may have given you the names already. Also, do you have a Pet Smart or Pets Plus nearby? They have wonderful referrals.

I live on LI - no way would I pay sounds like a scam to me.

Just did a quick care.com review search the BBB has many (more than positive) negatives and so does Amazon.
