Best app ever
Saved me unnecessary costs for boarding
Major Red Flags
Do not get this app or use this service in any way. To even gain full access you have to pay a subscription fee. This goes against the whole idea of this app. The designers and founders wanted to create an app where pet parents exchanged pet boarding/sitting services for free. In reality they wanted people to watch their animals for free and collect money off of the app users.
Think about it you are letting an untrained and unskilled pet person care for your animal and in exchange you are expected to do the same for others. Meanwhile you pay a fee to use the app. There are so many opportunities for something to go wrong while your animal is being cared for or you are caring for another animal. You are also taking money away from pet care professionals who often have expertise in animal care, carry insurance to cover the liability of something going wrong, are either licensed for business or have gone through the steps to become a professional. If you want to exchange with other pet parents join an actual club or social group that is dedicated to that. This app is just a scam for people to get around paying for services while the founders and designers are chasing the system and you!

Why is it paid now
The app was just perfect before it was paid. :(
What happens?
It does not seem to work.
Great platform to connect like minded pets
Have had the opportunity to board and host multiple times over the last few years. Met some great people and 1 bad lemon. Overall have had good experience using this platform. The support team and founders are really genuine people who care for the well being of pets and the experience boarders get from their platform via the connections they make. They also ensure unauthentic people who violate their terms are booted from their platform which helps preserve the sanctity of their purpose and experience for others. Glad to have recommended this to my friends and family.

Amazing app!
This is one of the greatest apps I’ve come across! You meet new people , new pups , build the support community around you and save money. Just love it and highly recommend it!
Great for dog owners
Alternative (or supplement) to rover where you can request dog sitter/care (or play dates) for specific dates you will be out of town and list when you’d be able to return the favor. Great way to save money while swapping dog sitting!
Wonderful App
I have been using this app for a few months and I absolutely love it! It’s so nice to meet others in the community and have friends who you trust to exchange help with.
Great Idea..!
Definitely useful for pet parents.!
Have to pay $$ annually to create boarding request
Not bad, but I wish it was totally free though. Having to pay to create a boarding request is just ok. Although, I’m not sure I can just trust just anyone with my doggy. I rely on professionals that have had more than one dog since most people are not that attentive when it’s not their dog or paid for it.

Amazing!
We have been looking for this and there it was! We are so grateful this app exists, is easy to use, works perfectly and allowed us to do exactly what we needed it to do!
Great idea but the accessibility of this app can use some serious work
I am a blind person who uses voice over as my screen reader on iOS. This app was inaccessible right out of the box. I was unable to even create an account, as the app was not accessible, not allowing me to fill out the required fields. Please do better in making your app accessible to everyone who might benefit from the services offered here.

Love it, would be even better with a few tweaks
I was so excited to discover this app; it’s one of those things I’ve thought of starting myself but knew I’d never actually do it. I can’t wait to get started meeting new dog friends for my pup. One quick suggestion I have for the developers is to add a function on the “search” page to see dogs within x number of miles of your current location. It’s a bit cumbersome to have to select the city each time out of tons of cities nationwide, plus I am open to multiple cities so it would be nice to just see all the dogs near me in one list. Thanks for making this great app!

Briliant idea!
Great app for dog boarding exchange. So easy to use.
Great social network for dog parents
Woofyclub is a great boarding idea that meant to be an alternative to traditional pet sitting or hotel services. I hate leaving my fur babies for vacation and always worried how they’re treated without me. It’s quite stressful to find a good pet hotel (is there any really?) or seasonable pet sitter who will treat your doggies as the family. And the cost of such service is skyrocketing. People forgot about old good times when we used to exchange the favors, on opposite to monetized relationships. When you find another family who treats their four paws baby the same way as you do, when you see they can provide care adequate you your expectations and you can pay them back the same way - what could be better? In my childhood neighborhood people used to babysit each other kids - there is no difference with dogs really. The only problem is to find a good match because people may not get along together, dogs may not like each other for any reason (they have their own preferences, like we do), or the location could be far away from active community participants so you have to plan ahead and have enough time to try different options and schedule playdates first.

Unusable
This app was recommended to me so I don’t understand why I’m having so much trouble with it. I see that the latest version claims to have fixed the problem with the keyboard covering text boxes you’re trying to type into, but this has not been fixed in my version. I just downloaded it 15 minutes ago! Also I cannot save any edits to my profile; it just spins when I hit Save. The list view for searching for dog owners is useless; there doesn’t seem to be any automatic sort by distance or anything that makes sense. I filtered by my city but there are hundreds of results that don’t seem to be listed in any order. I didn’t find using the map to be any more helpful because the pin location is different from the location shown when you view the person’s profile. My own location on the map says that I am located a half mile away from where I’m actually located. Please email me when these issues are fixed; until then I cannot suffer through another app with horrible UX.
