Connecting dog owners with local dog borrowers for walks, weekends and holidays.
BorrowMyDoggy is an online platform dedicated to connecting owners with dog borrowers for walkies, long weekends or mini holidays.
Our borrowers don’t look after dogs to earn money - they do it because they truly love spending time with a four legged friend. We provide a pooch friendly online hub where owners can connect and meet with potential dog sitters in their local area for a friendly alternative to kennels or traditional dog walking.
It can be tricky finding local dog day care and here at BorrowMyDoggy we are a community of dog lovers. Our aim is to help dog’s get extra walkies, owners a helping paw with day care and borrowers some quality time with a gorgeous pup.
