I’ve never actually hired him myself, I know his real identity, so it feels pretty awkward.
He’s not a professional escort — he has another regular job. Also, he appeared on the cover of a Montreal gay magazine back in 2011, which means he’s definitely lying about his age.

Some do, some don't. Some charge slightly more, some charge a per person rate.
Even when you charge more for couples, it usually still works out to a discounted per-person rate. For example, a standard rate of $400 pre hour or $500 for couples comes to $250 each, rather than $400 each - hence why I said it's "effectively half the rate". Some providers don't charge extra at all but in my experience, very few actually price two clients session at double the standard rate.
When I did the big group session, I was paid my regular overnight fee, and could go once the play stopped.  
Just reach out to a provider who you think would be down for it and see what magic happens!

I had a guy I took on vacation who was on Grindr the whole time. At one point during the vacation, I had an appointment with the resort (it was a promotional trip aimed at getting me to buy a timeshare – it worked, but different story). When I returned to the room after the appointment, there were indications that there had been an attempt to hide evidence of me and the bed had been hastily remade. I never consulted him about it, but I feel 98% certain he had a hookup while I was gone. We only met up once more after that as he had changed from the attentive escort I first met into a self-absorbed wannabe fashion businessman. 

About a year ago I hired a sub muscle guy for a fantasy I had of hosting a pump and dump. He was very hot and had a lot of fun. I was surprised how difficult it was to get guys to come fuck him. 
I learned that day that even ridiculously hot men have trouble hooking up on the apps. 

This whole process sounds super sketchy to me — I would never accept it. I’ve never once been asked for advance payment, and honestly, cash is still the most flexible and truly anonymous option. All these extra rules and conditions just kill any fun or spontaneity. Hard pass from me.

@PetetKsfo did a great job of explaining this. There is a option to set "Availability" and "Not Available" is a setting that the guy can toggle. The default is "Not Set." Here's what it looks like:

If the guy chooses "Available" or "Not Available" he then needs to specify a timeframe, anywhere from one hour to one week:

So as Pete mentions, setting "Not Available" would indicate the guy is not available right this moment, but is otherwise available at other times. It's a more short-term option, compared to freezing or hiding the listing which would indicate a longer-term absence or limitation.

I can set my status to "available"  "not-available" or "not set".
"Not set" is the default setting if  I am offline.
Once I log on, the setting changes to green and shows as "available"
I can also manually set myself as "available" so even if I am not right at the computer but cooking or doing laundry or something, I can keep the "available" light on for up to 6 hours.
If I know that I have a client booked in the afternoon, or if I am not available at all for a day because I have some other plans, I can change the setting to show as "not available"  - either for a number of hours, for a day, or a week - in order to not waste your time if you are looking for something right now.
So I would say that if you see a "not available" - it means the person is not available right now, or probably not for the next few hours, but may be available later or the next day.

Not knowing exactly what you're seeing, I can't offer an opinion, but here is an older discussion on what appears to be the same topic.

I’ve got a bit of this going on long-term with a guy I’ve been seeing regularly for about 8 years now. We’re still solidly in the client-provider zone, and I (at least) am not concerned that either of us will lose sight of that. But … it’s awfully nice and boy-friendy sometimes. We work out together a lot, and we text each other funny shit on a daily basis. He knows a fair amount about my private life, and me about his. And the sex continues to be PHENOMENAL. So we’re close in a way that sometimes seems a bit unusual. But although we’ve never discussed it, for both of us, that carefully-maintained level of intimacy is an important component of our particular long-term “relationship”. It helps that we both have our own (pretty solid) circles of family and friends 

Speaking as a regular client of one particular provider over the past 8 years or so, all I can say is that (for me, at least) it just gets better & better.  In some ways spoiled for any other meet ups (although I have tried), sadly, they just don't cut it. My guy's a keeper and I'll keep seeing him for as long as I can. Under no illusions about the nature of our relationship, but for those hours that we're together, nothing comes close.  Count myself very fortunate to have stumbled into his bed all those years ago.

A few years back I hired a straight guy who was a hockey player (you can easily find his team, games and pics online if you look). Super hot face, killer body, the whole package. But he was 100% just in it for the cash — service was lazy, zero effort.  
I was new to this and ignored a bunch of obvious red flags. Ended up wasting money and having a really disappointing experience.  The whole thing put me off hiring anyone for over two years.
