How a dog boarding swap works
Step 1
Join and add your dog
Create a profile for you and your dog so neighbors know who they'd be hosting.
Step 2
Meet neighbors first
Start with a walk or a playdate. Dogs who already know each other settle in faster.
Step 3
Swap stays
When you travel, a neighbor hosts your dog in their home. When they travel, you return the favor.
Trust and safety
Meet before any stay
We recommend at least one meet-up before a stay, and a short practice stay before a long trip.
Talk in the app
Message in WoofyClub to plan a stay, so you don't have to share your number until you're ready.
Reviews after stays
Members review each other after a stay, so you can see how past swaps went.
Report or block
If something feels off, you can report or block a member at any time.
