The case for Renpaw

A small idea
with big tails.

We didn't invent dog sharing — friends and neighbors have been doing it forever. We just made it easier, safer, and a little more rewarding.

What our users have to say

We're thinking about getting a dog next year but neither of us has had one growing up. Borrowing Mochi one weekend a month is the most honest preview we could ask for!

My mom lives alone since dad passed. I can't be there every day, but Biscuit can. He visits her every Wednesday now. Same dog, same time, same hour-long walk to the nearby park. And she always has so much to share from their walk!

I'm in the office three days a week and Puggy used to wait by the door. Now Sal and Marian (the retired couple who live five minutes away) pick him up at 8am and bring him back at 5pm. He sleeps through my evening calls, finally.

David met Davis (my dog) last spring. He's now a regular with Davis. He sends me photos of them from the trail all the time. I think they are best trail friends now haha.
