Amy stayed with our dog for 3 weeks while we were out of the country. She dealt with frigid weather and frozen pipes competently, keeping us informed, but handling issues confidently. She took wonderful care of our dog. We are so grateful for all she did to allow us to enjoy our time away, knowing that she had the home front covered.

My overall experience is very good except I think I clicked the wrong button and the price went up a whole lot. I didn't want to pay $160 just to book a housekeeper.

I hired * to assist in home ordering some bookshelves. Presently * simply cleans surfaces and carpets. * at first responded and then she didn't respond and didn't show up for expected work of Feb 4th for ordering some bookshelves. Is there someone available to help assist in home ordering? The Hotel Kahala rakes down most intelligent experience of ordering and organizational competence from the many residences in East Honolulu. With safest policy review

Not at all as expected. One couple came to see me and it was the guy who does the cleaning but the picture on care.com has the wife's picture. That is very misleading.

Care.com has been a nightmare for my family. We started our membership in Novemberand signed up for the year. It was working ok for a week or 2. Then it stopped letting me message any caregivers and popped up an error message. This went on for a month or so and caused us to have to find care elsewhere even though we paid over 200 dollars for the year to use this site. I finally got frustrated and messaged tech support. I gave the tech support guy my sign in info and even he could not get messages to send to caregivers from my account. He said would push it up to management and I'd receive an email, which I never got. I reached out again asking for a refund since even their own tech support team couldn't get it to work. I was told that the memberships were non refundable and they weren't able to do anything for me. I let them know that under normal circumstances I understand not being refundable but if your unable to provide the services how can you charge for them? They refused to do any sort of refund. This is a disgusting way to do business and horrible customer service. Total SCAM to charge for a service you can not provide!
Thank you for your feedback, and I'm very sorry for your frustration. All Care.com subscriptions are non-refundable, per our Terms of Use. However, please reach out to us so we can continue to assist you with your concerns! You can reach out to us at reviewteam@care.com, and please include Reference Number REV-025243 when you message so we can resolve your technical issues.
Being forced into premium status without speaking to the dog walker is an absolute farce. Had to pay for the full month. As it turns out, after speaking with the dog walker, she could not accommodate the times needed, and since her appointment was already booked, the cancellation fee was greater than the dog walking fee. Cancelled premium, but felt taken advantage of and nowhere on the website to share the frustration. An absolute rip-off!
Thank you for your feedback. I am so sorry for any frustration you've experienced. We're a paid subscription service and not a free service and I am sorry if you weren't aware, as this was never our intent! The fee contributes to our ongoing efforts to keep the site safe and secure and to maintain and develop the features of our site. Also, I just want to explain that we also offer a free membership to families searching for care so members can browse profiles and post a job to see if you get responses before they decide if they want to make a financial commitment. The paid membership is required to begin the screening process such as running background checks, contacting caregivers for interviews, and checking references. From your review, it sounds as though you were using our Booking feature to find pet care. Please don’t hesitate to reach out to us so we can assist you with this; you can reach us via our Help Center contact us link at https://help.care.com/s/contactus. Please include Reference Number REV-025146 when you message.
The service worked exactly as expected. Options for what you need is somewhat limited. Love the suggestions for caregivers.
We appreciate the great review, thanks! I will be sure to share your valued feedback with our product team.

Answer: Hello, I filed a complaint with the Better Business Bureau and they are currently investigating Care.com. This is important enough to me that they have scammed me out of 6 months of payments and I had to close my credit card for Fraud. If you have had a bad experience with Care.com, I would encourage you to file a complaint with BBB. If enough people complain, then they will take more serious action. Here is the website. It is a short process to submit a complaint. https://www.bbb.org/consumer-complaints/file-a-complaint/get-started
Answer: Steer clear from Care.com or what we prefer to call Care-aless. Com! They are only about profit for them. The site is for trollers that prey on innocent families. You'd be better off putting an ad in your local newspaper. Most local newspapers also have online readership too!
Answer: I am determined to shut this site down. I am contacting news programs, The Today Show, Good Morning America and any and all others. Shut them down!
Answer: I would be cautious. I hope she is not moving for the job, as that is NOT a good idea. I get text messages daily from people asking me to email them (often for a friend), or someone coming from out of town or whatever. I delete these right away. First of all, they should go through the regular website and email you. No one would hire anyone without first meeting them, checking references, etc. I am sitting at the home of someone I took with through the Care site. I first communicated via email, then set up a face to face and met the kids. If it seems too good to be true, it is. USE COMMON SENSE! Seriously, if you don't have common sense you really shouldn't be taking care of kids, pets or anyone else!
Answer: This is so sad! I have been on both sides as I have an assisted living home in Pensacola Florida. I used care.com to staff my home; awful. Then when I had myself on as a provider they suspended me for a 14 year old non viloent misdemeanor, and they did not even have my permission to check past 7. They want you to get crappy providers, the good ones are kicked off because once ya get a good one, you no longer need them. Cash cow corrupt company who makes rules up as they go along, I heard 20/20 is doing a special. I plan to contact them, as I am verifiably the best care coordinator hands down, extremely good with direct care. You will only ever be returned 1 month contact the Federal Trade Commission file a complaint that's what I did, the more problems the better the case against care, com
Answer: Your guess is as good as mine. Maybe they have a big money backer and can screw people of their money and lack of customer service? They should be called, I don't care.com
Answer: If I were you I'd choose another site. Care.com is terrible.
Answer: Some of the clients are looking for cheap labor through the internet for housekeeping. I usually tell the person to call me back for interview finish. Then I would tell them that I am self-employed and they would need to file a 1099 for taxes to IRS.
Answer: Care.com is set up for parents that pay for the service... Parents can enroll for free and place and add. However, If they do not forward their credit card any messages from caregivers will have a blocked phone number. The babysitter cam also enroll for free and make a profile for her services. However if she does nor forward her credit card she can only apply to 8 jobs every 28 days and only the ads from parents that have paid for an account will be able to contact her. DO NOT respond to anyone contacting you on your phone that did not contact through Care.com first... This is always a scam... The message will look like this: I am moving to your area soon and need car for my son/daughter. Kindly respond to my email.(They are looking to scam you for money.)
Answer: Sitter city.com could help you. I have honestly had nothing but problems with care.com. They make up rules as they decide not how things are written and do not follow their own privacy policy. They feed on single moms and dads. As well as children providing for aging parents You can place an add on Craigslist as well, for free and your prospective employee provides their own background check as it can be a most recent one and obtained by themselves at 5 to 10 dollars
