Anyone notice an uptick in the inquiries asking for pets?

[Andy-and-Elissa0]

Here's the deal:

Over the last week I've had 4 different inquiries for lengthy stays where folks would ask if I accept pets.

Now my listing clearly states 'No Pets' (whats not stated is that we can make the occasional exception at certain times of year.)

I respond in a very quick fashion (within minutes) with a follow up to get more information but I never get a response.

I was blocking the dates off at first but I'm not going to anymore. These 'people' seem like bots. 

Anyone else have this issue?

@Andy-and-Elissa0 , I have not experienced an increase in requests  to bring pets.
