Toby and his borrower Bethan

19 March 2018

“I first joined BorrowMyDoggy in 2012, while I was studying at university in Bath. Coming from a small town in the Yorkshire Dales, I found myself desperate to get out of the city and back into the countryside, and borrowing a dog made for the perfect excuse to get out and about, and get some much-needed exercise, too! When I finished university, I was paired up with Toby and his owners. I have spent the past year adventuring with him at least once a week – he has become a fully fledged honorary member of our family and we have made good friends in his owners, too! As a long term sufferer of anxiety, I have also benefited hugely from having a reason to get out into the countryside on a more regular basis, as well as having a loyal little furry friend to accompany me! Thank you BorrowMyDoggy – Toby’s borrower, Bethan, from Yorkshire.

I Love caring for / walking the little Furry friend. The owner gets time off & can go into the office when needed & the little furry friend gets to go on great walks, often :grin:

I missed the companionship of animals and wanted my son to experience the joy of looking after and cuddling a dog, but my rental won’t allow pets.

I absolutely adore dogs but due to work I would struggle to commit full time but I do have 3 days at a time off so it’s perfect for me.

I get puppy Bodhi 1 day most weeks and he is so cute & fluffy & I just am so happy when he arrives! We take lots of walks & meet lots of people.
