Small Bite: BEWARE On-Demand Dog Walking

Since 2014, On Demand Dog Walking Apps have been rising rapidly in popularity. These apps connect dog owners with contracted dog walkers - essentially an Uber for dog walking. Simply download the app, plug in your info, put your key in a lock box and a total stranger will come into your home and walk your dog. Just one google search will prove, this concept goes just as bad as you think it would. --------------------------------------------------------- Sources ¹ https://www.outsideonline.com/2345986/cautionary-tale-about-dog-walking-apps ² https://www.fox21news.com/news/local/dog-sitting-gone-wild-owner-comes-home-to-find-shirtless-men-lube-in-living-room/ ³ https://nypost.com/2019/08/15/wag-dogwalker-who-stole-manhattan-couples-pooch-pleads-guilty/ ⁴ https://nypost.com/2019/07/01/another-dog-killed-under-care-of-pet-app-wag-suit/ ⁵ https://www.cbsnews.com/news/houston-texas-nick-sara-moore-winnie-dog-died-dog-walker-wag-app/ ------------------------------------ Ask The Trainer www.PawsomeUniversity.com/Learn#Ask ------------------------------------ Join The PU Mailing List! https://mailchi.mp/9d69169db4a1/pup ------------------------------------ Pawsome University Youtube https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCSqhKRcTjWQDa_kmCB7x7yQ ------------------------------------ The Caps YouTube https://www.youtube.com/c/TheCapsYT ------------------------------------ Pawsome University on Instagram https://www.instagram.com/pawsomeuni Support the show We hope you enjoyed this episode of The Podcast for Dog People.
