Ive been using Borrow my dog for about 3 years following a deterioration in my health and worries about how I would exercise my Black lab. I have met some lovely walkers, students and those who have lost dogs or can't own them in their … [truncated - click "More" to expand]

I met Jess on BorrowMyDoggy several years ago and we are still firm friends today. It's not always easy to find your pawsome match but do not give up its worth the effort. Wonderful service, idea and win win for all thanks to the BorrowMyDoggy team for bringing a great pal into my life. From Saoirse and Jess in Dublin

I have found a brilliant dog and owner
I have found a brilliant dog and owner. I love my walks with him and have been walking him for over 14 months. His owner is flexible with dates and times too.

Good service
The company offer a great service for price and allow you to select premium members in search which gives a sense of security when trusting your precious pooch in another person's hands. We've only had positive experiences with other members. Worth considering if your doggo is like ours and needs regular walks which is hard to keep up with at times.

Terribly flawed
Terrible. It's very misleading. Out of 90 dogs only 4 had paid the owner's fee. I don't blame them for not paying. It's extortionate. Great concept but the business plan behind it is flawed. It should be a nominal fee for both borrower and lender in order to convert peoples interest in to link ups. You can't contact someone unless the owner has paid the whopping fee and they don't. It's too big of an amount to gamble finding someone to look after your dog and save you fees on walking or holiday cover. Brilliant concept but it just doesn't work. NB - in response to your response. Utter hoodwinking is yet again at play. Your ID check isn't a 'check' at all. I had to provide name and address. No proof. My profile is fully complete. Your customer service you have asked me to contact to help with my profile gets slated! You can't link up because your fee is too high to lenders and no other reason. The vet line. Well, I'd imagine it's just as described. A vet line like 111 - take the dog to the vets. I doubt very much it's more than that. It's all a bit of a mess past the concept stage.
