I stated what happened in the post but never actually stated the pet sitters name. Within 2 hours I started getting text messages from the pet sitter that they will sue me for this if it hurt their business and I should delete it asap. They were never identified and everything I wrote was true. I know this will almost certainly go nowhere but what would you do/advise please.

Laugh and write some more, IF it was justified.

However, if you are just being petty and mean, you might get loved by some lawyers.

I should just post a screenshot of her text. Her name was never used and she identified herself as being the issue. She seems to think anything negative is slander. Not brightest and doesn’t know the difference between slander and libel.

Definitely save and and all screenshots and put the "evidence" aside for later.

Ignore.

She’s probably concerned that people will contact you directly and you’ll share her name then.

She wouldn’t win any suit and you can file whatever paperwork yourself if she does. It’s up to her to prove she was harmed.
