Airbnb and Uber convinced strangers to get comfortable with renting each other’s homes and hopping into each other’s cars. Now, a newer crop of services offers the promise of helping people supplement their livelihoods by renting out anything and everything.
Eine in letzter Zeit fast vergessene Stimmung, nämlich die, die einem Festival-Feeling gleicht, war am Wochenende am Marktplatz und rund um die Rote Res in.

Like many new pandemic pet owners, Nia Morgan knew her puppy, Zorro, had grown very attached to her due to all the time she spent at home with him. So she was understandably hesitant about leaving him for the first time with a sitter she d hired through Rover, a popular platform for booking dog and cat sitters.
Morgan took what she thought were adequate steps to ensure her timid then-9-month-old poodle mix would be in good hands during an upcoming trip. She interviewed a Rover sitter and did a trial run, dropping Zorro and a friend s dog off together with the sitter for the day. Zorro s temperament was good, said Morgan, after picking up her dog, which made her feel comfortable enough to book the same sitter for a five-day trip.
