Does Rover put a cap on the number of sitters in a fixed area?

I think that there will be a point of maximum saturation and then things will taper off. Some people will realize dog sitting is not 'just for fun' and the people who are not serious about it will disappear. Early on, when I was a customer and not a sitter, I contacted several sitters in my area who never responded to my requests at all. These are the people I assume will not make it on the long haul.

It would be nice if Rover had a way of purging sitters who showed no activity for a certain period of time, say 6 months or a year. That way any accounts sitting out there that were no longer being used regularly would disappear.

I have no direct knowledge of whether Rover would care about their saturation of any geographic area or market. In fact, during peak holiday times, they encourage you to take on more dogs, which means they could be potentially losing business because there aren't enough sitters to meet demand. New sitters are encouraged to set their rates lower to attract customers at the expense of established sitters. However, Rover would assume those sitters should be only minimally affected because they should have repeat customers.
