Setting Your Availability

Calendar › Availability controls when owners can book you at all — it's separate from your actual booked appointments, which live under the Bookings view of the same calendar.

Availability view with weekly schedule, service capacities, and block specific dates

Weekly schedule

You're available every day by default — turn off any day you never accept bookings on, and it's removed from search results for that day going forward.

Service capacities & blocked dates

Each service (House Sitting, Boarding, Daycare, Dog Walking, Drop In) has its own max pets setting — once a date hits that limit for a service, it stops showing as available for new requests of that type. Use Block specific dates to close off individual days — holidays, personal days, or anything outside your normal schedule — without touching your weekly pattern.

If you need a longer break, the Take a break from sitting toggle at the top removes you from search results entirely and blocks all new bookings until you turn it back on.
