Reptile Care

Reptile Care

I received a request to house sit for two nights (Friday in the morning till Sunday morning) in the future with 3 dogs and 2 cats. They also mentioned reptiles that would need some minor light care. I don’t mind the dogs and cats but never took care of reptiles. I’m not uncomfortable with it just unfamiliar. I plan on asking all the care the reptiles would need but should I charge more for it?

My rates currently are pretty low since I’m still new and trying to build a rapport and clientele but I’m open to advice.

Ghosted for house sitting/Acceptance Rate

Someone reached out to me asking about a house sitting for a weekend next month on Tuesday. I was deathly sick and had slept for 30 hours straight, only waking up here and there. So I didn't see their message till Wednesday. I answered her questions and offered to do a M&G, but she never responded. I followed up today with a simple message along the lines of "if you're still interested, please let me know!" and still haven't heard back.

Would it be wrong of me to achieve the request since it's been 3 days with no response? Especially since Rover says I may not show up in searches for the days they requested. Does it affect my acceptance rate since they ghosted me?
