Misleading - open housesit listings are already filled

Housesitting listings that are already filled -- still show days after notifying NZH admin, and homeowner. Misleading. Gives me the impression to deactivate/remove a housesit listing is difficult/impossible. Nothing in FAQ of how-to.

For a housesitter, search is terrible.
- no from /to date (only from date)
- no specific region (only north or south island)

Website feels like it was some low-level IT person first time project and thus $25 fee for housesitters hoping to just get some cash by people who join thinking its legit.
