## What is Happy Puppy Dog Sharing?

* * * * * We bring together dog owners and potential dog borrowers * * * * *

Sometimes, dog owners don’t have enough time to give their dogs the affection they deserve, but would love to give them more exciting lives.


There are also lots of folks who love dogs, but don’t have the time or inclination to own one.

* * * * * A win-win-win situation * * * * *

Everyone’s a winner with HAPPY PUPPY:

- DOGS:
Your new friend Silvia comes to visit on Tuesdays and Thursdays, and you love to get out for the extra run-around on these days.

- DOG BORROWERS:
Maybe your job is demanding, you live alone or you can’t take on the long-term obligations of dog ownership. But you still love dogs and the chance to take a dog out for a walk, or look after one for a while at home.

- DOG OWNERS:
Sometimes you don’t have enough time for your four-legged friend, but don’t like the idea – or prices – of paid dog sitters. HAPPY PUPPY users can find reliable dog borrowers for regular or occasional appointments, whenever they’re needed. They look forward to spending time with your dog, without any financial motivation. Some dog borrowers may be happy to look after your pet for longer periods, so you can even take a well-earned vacation.

### 4/5 — Great Idea….but….

*2026-06-24*

This app is a really great idea and I love it! It’s super easy to set up and I’d really love to support you, but I can’t right now because for my area the people that are lending out dogs are absolutely no one! Yikes! Hey! If you reply to this I’ll check back if you have any ideas how I can get word out in my area this app exists because it’s a super cool idea. I just don’t know how but I’d pitch it. Peace!

**Developer response:** Thank you so much, this made our day! The US community is still young and growing, so early birds like you make all the difference. Best way to spread the word: open your profile, tap the three-dot menu and use "Share profile" to post your link in local Facebook groups, Nextdoor or neighborhood chats — dog lovers nearby will find you directly. Every new member in your area helps! Your Hundelieb Team

### 5/5 — Tolle Idee

*2025-07-21, version 1.4.12*

Die Idee hinter Hundelieb finde ich super. Ich bin alleinstehend und habe über die App jemanden gesucht, der an 1-2 Tagen meine Hündin nehmen kann, während ich arbeite.

### 5/5 — Enttäuschend

*2025-04-25*

Ich habe mich extra angemeldet, um Hunde-Sitting in meiner Nachbarschaft zu betreiben und Hunde-Halter*innen in ihrem Alltag zu unterstützen. Allerdings kann ich nicht mal eine einzige Nachricht an eine/n Hundebesitzer*in schicken und muss direkt 17€ für einen Monat zahlen? Geht’s noch? Stellt doch wenigsten drei „Frei-Nachrichten“ zur Verfügung. Ich bin so von Anfang an blockiert und kann mich von der App überhaupt nicht überzeugen lassen. Gut gemeint, schlecht gemacht. Sehr schade!

**Developer response:** Du kannst mit deinem Matches kostenlos schreiben bzw. auch immer kostenlos antworten, wenn dich jemand anschreibt.

### 5/5 — Toller Dienst, gut zu bedienen

*2025-04-09, version 1.4.6*

Toller Dienst, gut zu bedienen, durchdacht und praktikabel.

### 5/5 — Super Hunde App

*2025-03-20, version 1.4.4*

Einfache Handhabung - sogar für Kinder ! Viel Auswahl, tolle Hunde, gute Beschreibung, einfach in Kontakt zu treten mit den Hundebesitzer/ Freunde

### 5/5 — Fein gemacht

*2025-03-09*

Richtig tolle Idee. Hoffe, ihr bekommt das weiter bzw auch anderweitig finanziert, auch wenn sich manche an dem Premium vorbei-sneaken, um schreiben zu können (sofern das noch status quo ist). Vielleicht ne Art Coin-Guthaben für wenig Geld, und dann 1 Coin pro DM. Hab einen tollen Hund gefunden, und die kleine Madame ist seit ner Weile schon wirklich ne Bereicherung alle 1-2 Wochen. 🐶

**Developer response:** Super vielen Dank für dein Feedback und die Bewertung!

### 5/5 — Super praktisch

*2025-03-05*

Man kommt schnell mit vielen Leuten in Kontakt und sieht die Entfernung. Habe innerhalb von ein paar Tagen mehrere Hundeliebe gefunden

**Developer response:** Das freut uns zu hören, danke für deine Bewertung!

### 5/5 — Geniale Idee

*2025-02-06, version 1.4.4*

Ich hab von der App erst vor kurzem erfahren und ich finde die Idee dahinter richtig gut. In der App muss man sich erst zurechtfinden, aber dazu gibt es ein ausführliches Hilfeportal.

### 5/5 — Great for owners!

*2025-01-20*

Great app for dog owners who would like for their dogs to get more socialization. I was able to find many people in the neighborhood who wanted to spend time with my dog, allowing my dog more stimulation and activity.

**Developer response:** Thanks for the great Review!

### 5/5 — Wirklich schöne App für Hundehalter und Hundeliebhaber

*2024-11-23*

Wir sind ganz begeistert von der App. Haben selbst aktuell nicht die Möglichkeit für einen Hund und in dieser Community kommen somit alle zu ihrem Glück. Halter & Liebhaber.

**Developer response:** Genau das ist unsere Mission. Danke für deine Bewertung und viel Spaß weiterhin mit den Hunden in deiner Umgebung ❤
