Finally one app for home services

I’ve used Dobby for a couple of jobs in my home. Each time I’ve been really happy with the work done and it’s saved me a lot of time. I wish there was something like this sooner.

Whoa…this app is amazing

I bought my first home a few years ago, and couldn’t believe how hard it was to take care of all the things for my house. I just don’t have the time to figure it out either!

I heard about Dobby from my neighbor and I’m so glad I tried it. Everyone who I’ve worked with has been awesome and it’s so easy to use. Highly recommend!!!

Top pros, helpful support, and the app reminds us about things to do

Dobby is clearly the best way to do home services and renovations.

Such a helpful team, best of the best pros, cutting edge with tools like check the price that not only gives an Ai powered price insights - but educates me about the job. And Dobby gets things done for me without my thinking or doing or worrying about anything. They literally manage everything from start to finish with quality guarantee.

Also love that I can request any small jobs like mirror mounting as well as big projects like bathroom upgrades on Dobby.

Response from developer

Thanks so much for your review. And thank you for using Dobby for all things home. We built Dobby for busy homeowners and to take care of all of their home service and renovation needs.

Very pleased!

Very happy with the ease of the app and the professionals I’ve worked with.

Contracting made easy

Easy tool for coordinating and pay for home contracting work.

Efficient and easy, yet somehow feels personalized

I am the type of person who likes to shop around for quotes but also hate making phone calls. Dobby makes it so easy to get quotes with just a few clicks, and scheduling and communication is a breeze. Every contractor they’ve sent has been great in terms of getting the job done at a reasonable cost. Also, I recently learned that Alex is a real person — she’s so quick and responsive that I was sure she was AI!

Thank you for your amazing review! So happy that you are loving the app and UX. Alex, the wonder woman: Alex is a real person and she is our COO. However, Alex doesn't respond alone. An amazing team of CS team members + AI (artificial intelligence) track our customer conversations and responds. Lemonade Insurance pioneered this model a few years ago and we took that to the next level with more technologies available to us.

Great app

Dobby is easy to use and a great better way to connect with qualified home professionals

Love dobby

I love dobby. I have used them for at least 6 jobs this past year and plan to use them for more next year. The handymen, air conditioning people, and others are always timely, responsive. Love the marketplace aspect of it.

Love Dobby!

I’ve had issues with trust on other platforms. Dobby professionals have high quality work, have great communication, and it’s all at a great price. I recommend Dobby to all my family and friends too.

Game Changer!

Dobby is absolutely fantastic! They’ve made the home renovations / services experience so much easier than what I’ve had in the past, and the professionalism is top notch. Highly recommending them to all my friends, family and colleagues!

Don’t be fooled! Dishonest and corrupt

They rely on the mis-classification of contractors and avoid labor laws by doing so. Very misleading and dishonest just like Task Rabbit, Thumbtack , DoorDash, Turo, Lyft etc. they exploit and mislead the 1099 contractors that work for them. When I asked about the TOS they promptly deleted my account. Do not get in bed with these scammers! They treat contractors like employees and pay them like independents

DC Realtor Using Dobby

I just started using Dobby from the recommendation from another agent in my office. I used them for a listing that needs work. So far the process has been seamless. I love the chat feature and how intuitive the app is to use! Their customer service has been top notch. I also like the plethora of professionals they have on the app with starting prices. Looking forward to sharing the app with my clients.

Excellent & Professional Service

I’ve used Dobby several times now for various home repairs and all of their service professionals have been great, done excellent work and respond quickly.

So helpful

As a new homeowner, having Dobby really has taken the pressure off in finding providers that can address problems as they arise…big or small. I’ve had all types of work done - flooring, kitchen renovation, appliance repair, installations…and each time, the providers are helpful, communicative, and timely!

Great home maintenance app

Dobby is more than a home maintenance app, it’s a community of experts that can help you with almost anything you need for your house.

I’ve been using Dobby for over a year now and I’ve been impressed. I’ve been impressed with those that operate the app who are responsive to homeowner concerns and questions, and I’m impressed at the quality of the people they have in their system. To date I haven’t had any issues with any of the things we’ve needed done on our house. The prices that the contractors charge are pretty fair and dobby doesn’t slap you with a crazy high % for using their services. Additionally, the admins at dobby will be honest and if there’s nobody in their system designed to handle the project you want, they’ll let you know. That doesn’t happen often, but they won’t just send some guy to do work they aren’t trained or knowledgeable in.

The app is easy to use and they continue to update it with new services and abilities. The only thing that I would like to see integrated would be the ability for multiple contractors to provide estimates on your project, if it’s a big project. That way we don’t need to ask for multiple quotes, it’s something we could select in the project submitting process.

I highly recommend this app to any homeowner that has trouble doing housework themselves.

You inspired us to launch Dobby Community, where homeowners can hear from other homeowners and from some of our best service pros and home inspectors on anything they need help with! Thank you for using Dobby. We have also updated our workflow to include multiple quotation for larger jobs. Thank you for the feedback!

Great company

We’ve used Dobby for many jobs around our house and I’ve found it so easy to use. It is never easy to find a handy man, especially one willing to do smaller jobs that I need help with. I trust that Dobby has vetted their pros. They are also very quick to respond. I think it’s a great concept and wish them a lot of success!

Extremely Convenient for Home Repairs

I’ve used this app for everything for emergency plumbing repairs to finding a handyman to hang shelves. It’s a very convenient way to find trusted local workmen.
