DogBuddy began in 2013 when entrepreneur and dog lover, Richard Setterwall, struggled to find a sitter for his own dog, Luca. Needing to travel with work, but hating the idea of leaving Luca in traditional caged boarding kennels, Richard set about building the go-to service for connecting dog owners with dog sitters. Today, we’ve grown to become Europe’s leading home dog boarding, doggy day care and dog walking platform. Each month we help thousands of dog owners find reliable dog sitters to take care of their dogs so they can work, rest or play, knowing their dog is in a safe pair of hands.
