“I was recently made redundant and BorrowMyDoggy has been a wonderful pick-me-up. I’ve had dogs all my life, so when I moved to Glasgow for university I really missed having one in my life. I signed up to BorrowMyDoggy and matched with two dogs, Fudge and Skye, with Fudge actually living round the corner from me! I look after Fudge during the day and it just works perfectly for all of us - it’s definitely been mutually beneficial for me, her owners and, of course, Fudge! I get on really well with her owners, too, which is lovely. As well as Fudge, there’s also Skye, who I look after when her owner is away. Skye’s absolutely great and her owner is always so grateful. I feel so thankful to have met such lovely local people and dogs - I would encourage people to sign up to BorrowMyDoggy.” Fudge and Skye’s borrower, Lyndsey.

How it works
Timmy and Amanda
I have been looking after Timmy one day a week for over 4 years and absolutely adore him. His owner and I are also good friends.
Mr T, Sue and Paul
After losing our own dog we didn’t feel ready to have another dog of our own but missed having a dog in the house. We soon met up with Mr. T.
Scruffy and Adeline
It’s made my life better knowing that I have trusted people to look after my fur baby whilst I’m away knowing he’s happy with them.
