CareGuides

This is a website that advertises itself as providing listings for nannies, babysitters, elder care providers, pet sitters, housekeepers, house sitters and other home workers. There is a story posted on the website about how the founder, John Philip Green, couldn’t find babysitters so he started the company, where he is currently «chief executive dad.»
We found out that a home worker we hired was a convicted felon who was incarcerated for several years. The worker is listed on this site and we tried to flag the worker’s ad. We sent emails through the site itself, the site’s «info@» address and to the founder directly at his email address. There was no answer through any of these channels. Voicemails left on a phone number we found for this website went unanswered. We sent information to the founder via US mail at the address in Toronto listed on the website, and it was returned stamped «address and addressee nonexistent.»
I am wondering if this is a website associated with any real people, or just a server somewhere. There are certainly no precautions to ensure that listings are genuine or safe for the consumer.
