Perfect combination!
Through BorrowMyDoggy we have met and befriended some lovely people who all truly love our dog Willow.
As well as them helping us out when we need a dog sitter, we also help them out by allowing Willow to spend time with them if they want to go for a walk.
It works both ways!

I had a really good response
I had a really good response, so much so I had to de activate for the time being as I ended up nearly every day with a dog. I have kept a few people that I still take dog for walk mostly when owner is going to be out for the day.
Walking other people’s dogs helped me get over the lose of mine

Wonderful experience
I joined in May 2025 and it took about 4 months before I was contacted. I have been lucky to look after two beautiful dogs of which I am in regular contact with. The owners have been lovely too. It’s been a great experience so far and I’d highly recommend doing it and also contacting as many owners as you can in the beginning so that you can get noticed.

Love Dogs
I was hesitant about "lending" my dog but now I am thrilled. It's been great for my dog and borrower. The bond between them is so good. There are great friends now. He visits one day a week and the borrower is less lonely working from home, her kids have been able to experience "owning" a dog and my dog is more confident with strangers. Everyone wins!

An amazing facility
An amazing facility! I've been missing doggy company for quite some time now but unfortunately I'm not in the situation to be able to commit full time to owner ship. Registration and verification is a simple process and there's lots of ideas about what to put in your profile. I did all this and within a week I've connected to an adorable Daxi who will be coming to visit me for cuddles and walks at least once a week. The Daxi owner is also delighted as she knows her little one is being safe and being treated well while she has some away time. It's a win win all round. Everything on this site is user friendly, well put together and 100% fun

I've been a doggy borrower since 2022
I've been a doggy borrower since 2022, & have found it to be an Excellent/Essential/Extraordinary platform to make connections between owners & borrowers. All my email queries were responded to promptly, resolved any small issues, & done in very friendly way... I had more time to borrow & walk & play with & cuddle, of course, the doggos I borrowed back then, & im quite busy in health care field currently, however im currently in tge process of looking for a doggo to borrow some times.... you may need to give the owners some time to respond, & if they don't respond timely, try to connect with another one. Be clear how available you are, & make sure tge fit between all tge humans, & all tge doggies is great. Happy Borrowing!

Perfect Solution
When my last dog died I decided not to replace her because a dog is quite a tie. I thought, "I'd get another if I could just put it in a cupboard when I didn't want to be tied." Then along came BorrowMy Doggie. The perfect answer. I can take dogs for walks when I like and even have them for sleepovers. Perfick!

Matching people and pooches that live locally makes a huge difference. I've had a really pleasant experience meeting a georgous little dog and her owners are lovely too. With photos and details of the dog, and their expectations, you can see if it will work for you and your lifestyle. We went for a walk together with the owner and the dog to further gain trust, which is really important for the owner. So it's worked out well.

God send
The gentleman that takes my dog for a walk is a God send. I havent been able to take her out because of pain now because of surgery. Unluckily he is now on holiday for a week but when he comes back he will be raking her again. Im so glad I found 'Borrow my Doggie"

Rupert
The first dog we met was Rupert, a Maltese Bichon cross and we’ve been looking after him now for nearly 8 months now to the great satisfaction of all involved. The arrangement is completely flexible and we have him between 0-5 days a week, depending on what we and his owner are up to. We tend to agree dates a couple of weeks in advance. Rupert is funny, affectionate and full of character and we absolutely love his visits. None of it would have been possible without Borrowmydoggy.com.

Asked for a refund within 14 days and was told no because i had been contacted by a borrower. However as i explained to customer services, that person contacted me know what its like to own a dog, where did we get our dog from etc, it transpired they were not interested in coming for dog walks, taking our dog for a walk etc and has not been in contact since. I also noted that alot of people seem to be inactive in my area. I would certainly not recommend this company.

lots of new friends
Opportunity for my dogs to meet lots of new friends for walks and company. The app isn't always quick to update with messages etc but the amount of dog walks and care support we have received through this platform has been wonderful.

I joined Borrow my Doggy a few weeks ago. I’ve walked my new doggy buddy four times. It’s great to have a dog to walk again, especially as work commitments prevent from having one of my own for now. I would definitely recommend BMD.

Well so far waste of money and time
Well so far waste of money . I have joined premium membership as only way to get replies of owners . Sent messages to several but no replies . Did get one message to look after dog which I replied to I could do but then no reply back ? So rude why ask in first place . Was hoping for numerous offers to look after dogs but disappointed Not renewing membership as waste of my time and money

Good idea, but....
Borrow my doggy sounds like a good idea. In principal. I must have sent out 30 messages to people who are supposed to be interested in being a "borrower" and out of those 30 messages I have one borrower, who shows up twice a week to help me out by walking my dog while I await a knee replacement and struggle a bit with chronic pain while walking.
Total waste of money
Total waste of money. Paid for premier membership to find people to help walk my puppy. 2 responded but lived miles away!! another very close but only did it once and complained the pup pulled on lead and not been back since. The company refuse any refunds for any reason. In response to below, My mileage is set. Cannot edit age it keeps saying pup is 20 years old. As for Pup pulling on lead, hardly dangerous with such a small dog and did state it is still in training. Never heard from BMD again no offers of help
