[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]These days I use Task Rabbit quite a bit.  There seem to be many more taskers working in the DC area now than there were five to ten years ago.  It used to be more of a NYC thing.

I do not have dogs, but would a restaurant drain floor mat work better?  Maybe with a thin Armor All mat underneath?

You would call Task Rabbit to wash and replace the absorbent mat under the dog dish?  Or sponge off the baseboards in a couple of rooms and then leave?  Is this what they do now?

I have used Task Rabbit for discrete "bigger" things, like move a monster sofa up three flights of steps. Or install a new flag holder on my porch column, using a masonry drill bit.  ie, a job too small for a contractor to come out, but something I couldn't do along.

But you're saying they will come and swap out a stinky dog mat and then just ... leave?  If so, I cannot imagine what that costs. And I'd feel like arranging the completion of that task would take more mental energy and coordination than just doing it myself.  But correct me if I'm wrong[/quote]
