I have hired two providers for overseas trips before and both did kind of ended on a sour note to me, for the same reason. Both providers seem unprepared for the trip and I ended up spending quite a bit to buy what they needed. With the first provider, we went to UAE but he brought mostly jeans, rather thick tops, and forgot to bring a shaver. With the second provider, we went to Paris over Christmas but his shoes were not suitable for winter and his jacket was too thin. He insisted on buying a specific brand of shoes, only to end up being unsuitable for winter still, and needing yet another pair. He also expected me to buy gifts such as perfume, sweatshirt, cap for him.

Is this common and expected, or are they taking advantage of the situation and I am just being plain unlucky?

You don’t state how experienced these two providers were with international travel. Reading the ads on Rentmen, some providers make it clear they have travelled the world. You could expect these gentleman to know how to dress for Paris in the winter and the Middle East such as the Gulf States. 
With travelling, wardrobe is an essential consideration but for people with little experience it can be a challenge.
