Why Dogshare is for you

Spend time with a pooch

Ideal for when you would love to spend time with a dog and circumstances don’t allow you to own one. Offer occasional help or regular play dates without the full-time commitment.

The joy of companionship

Time spent with a dog can improve life. Natural mood enhancers that will encourage you to get outdoors and be social.
Test the waters

Considering dog ownership for yourself? Gain real life experience and confidence.

Help out someone in need

There are times a walk in the park or a friendly scratch behind the ear goes a long way. By lending a hand you might be helping out someone who is juggling a busy or difficult period of their lives and keeping lonely dog barking down to a minimum.

Community Building

Help someone unable to walk their dog due to age, illness or other extenuating life circumstances.
Upstream of Dog Surrender & Rescue

70% of Australian Dogs don’t get a daily walk - something we can change together.

There’s plenty of research to support the premise that furry companions enhance our wellbeing and contribute to a healthy lifestyle.

Exercise & Get Outdoors
