I was assuming people just want to hang out with a dog now and then regardless of how much it pays.

- josefresco 5y agoThis is us. We just love dogs. Building a business model off of people willing to sacrifice their time and money just to love on dogs is ... a little nuts.
- sokoloff 5y agoOur prior dog died this summer and I considered doing some dogsitting for exactly this reason. When I looked into these easy, online/app-based services, it wasn't worth the coordination effort (with the humans) and was easier to just go interact with dogs and owners on the sidewalks and at the local dog parks when I needed my dog fix.
- josefresco 5y agoHey so this was/is us. We raised two dogs from puppies, and when they both died of old-age related issues, we couldn't bring ourselves to bond with another dog/pet. Logistics aren't bad (my wife handles comm). Some people though want to meet us before the transaction which is a pain because of the amount of money involved and inconvenience.
