Be Careful
Same Experience here ! Automatic renewal of annual membership purchased before pandemic with NO OPTION to cancel even the same day credit card is charged . This is robbing !!! Urbansitter should refund back the renewal fee if claimed within the same day or week .

My go to site/app for finding babysitters
I've hired a few babysitters on Urbansitter and had great experiences. When I recently reached out to customer service with a question, they were very responsive and helped me solve my issue.

I’ve found a lot of great babysitters using this site and always receive prompt helpful responses from Brittany.
I definitely would recommend using this site because I’ve found great babysitters who were good fun smart college or grad students in my area.

Absolute scam for sitters
Absolute scam for sitters. They have you put in all your information before even being able to see that a job is no longer available, and then they require you to pay money to apply to current jobs *after* they've already collected your info. Terrible site and dishonest.

Hi Madison, thank you for reaching out with your review and expressing your concerns. Given this review, it sounds like a reaction to UrbanSitter’s decision to require a paid membership for all sitters. This membership includes full access to the UrbanSitter job board, messaging and booking tools, as well as new trust and safety features, including required background checks.
While we understand that some sitters may opt out, we whole-heartedly believe that requiring all sitters to be background checked is an important component in building the most trusted and reliable childcare service available today. We also believe that in doing so, we will attract even more parents to UrbanSitter, which will ultimately result in more jobs for the sitters who continue. We wish you the best of luck in finding your perfect job (or jobs!) For tips for success, please feel free to email our Member Services team at support@urbansitter.com and we'll be happy to help!
Stellar service!
I lost access to UrbanSitter when I had to travel for a family emergency because the platform does not work outside of the continental United States. I reached out and received a prompt response from Brittney, who both partially refunded my membership fee for the year and came up with a creative idea to help me out while I was traveling.

Required me to sign up for a resulting monthly charge to use a gift card I had received. I already had the sitter so in order to cash out the gift card, I had to sign up ($20) my sitter had to sign up ($20) then pass a back ground check ($10) then they never sent me a receipt for the monthly charges. They changed the name of the charge so it looked different different months, I.e. they intentionally changed the name to get around you noticing the recurring charge. I discovered The charge and politely asked for a refund as I was only using the service to cash in a gift card. They profited $50 from me just to use my gift card. They essentially said, sucks to be you we are keeping all this money that we never provided you with a receipt for or notified you was being taken out of your account under different names each month.
Very deceptive business practices. Do not use this service. Sitter City is WAY better.

Hi Rose, thank you so much for expressing your concerns regarding these membership fees. We're so sorry for any confusion, but we do require families to have an active membership in order to contact and book sitters which can be paid via credit card or gift card credit. We're also sorry to hear this concern regarding the line items on your credit card or bank account statement! Please know we have reached out to you via email to gather more information so we can ensure our website is working as expected - where all membership fees or caregiver payments are clearly marked with our company name. This is not the experience we wish to give members, but we thank you for your candid feedback. We sincerely hope we can turn your experience around and resolve this issue to your satisfaction! Thank you again!
Excellent customer service

Be careful signing up with those guys as they will bombard you with emails and there is no way to unsubscribe!
Illegal of course... but they have a very aggressive approach and don't care unless warned to get sued.
Also, forget about contacting any sitters unless you pay them high premium at the end of jumping through their search hoops... it is all a greedy system that will bite you and never let go (-;

Very early in my experience with UrbanSitter, but I ran into a technical issue that was solved accurately and timely by the customer support agent. The agent did not "pass me off" or attempt to rush me along to a quick resolution. She answered each email I had with empathy and thoughtful attempts to fix the issues. No problems with the platform yet, and hoping I don't.

Hi Shar, thank you for your review! We're sorry to hear about these unwanted membership fees, but we would love to rectify this for you. It sounds like you may have had the same CC on two different accounts as our system isn't able to charge after membership cancellation. Please email us at support@urbansitter.com so we can help ASAP - thanks!
