Creating happiness in your local community

RachelGloucestershire 5 stars

I joined BorrowMyDoggy because my husband and I both work full time but our 11-year-old daughter has been desperate for a dog. We now have a very happy daughter who looks forward to every dog walk.

The fees are incredibly reasonable considering what you get. I have a puppy and have connected with several fellow dog lovers who want to spend time with him, it’s a win-win all round!

CarysLeicestershire 5 stars

I joined BorrowMyDoggy because as a student living in a rented flat, I can't have my own dog, and I really miss my own dog! Lola has the best effect on my mood - she always makes me smile!

The BorrowMyDoggy Mission

BorrowMyDoggy connects dog owners with trusted local people who would love to look after their dog. We make it easy to arrange walks, playtime, overnight stays or holidays. Our aim is to help dog owners when they need it, give dogs more exercise and playtime and to allow people without a dog to spend quality time with one. We call it a win-win (or a woof-woof) situation for everyone involved.

Minnie and her borrower Felicity

"We have been borrowing, Minnie, a Miniature Dachshund for 2 years now. We got married in August and invited Minnie to be part of my bridal party - as 'sausage of honour'! She walked down the aisle and was immaculately behaved and partied on into the night! She has become such a big part of our lives and her owners have become true friends.”Minnie the Dachshundfrom Reading

Sally and her owner Claire

“I joined BorrowMyDoggy when Sally, was 4 months old and it helped me immensely with her training and socialising. The biggest benefit for Sally (besides the sneaky ice-creams her walkers take her to get!) has been the mental stimulus of company for her while I'm out. BorrowMyDoggy has been an amazing find.”Sally the Samoyedfrom Edinburgh

Luna and her borrower Natasha

"I joined BorrowMyDoggy a few months ago. Kate found me and got in touch as she needed someone to help walk her beautiful Labrador, Luna, whilst she was heavily pregnant at the time. It was a bonus that she lived only a 3 minute walk from me! Since then, I’ve been walking Luna nearly every week and it’s been an absolute joy.”Luna the Labradorfrom Woking
