For pet owners
Long work days, trips away or a night out? A pet lover who lives nearby can walk your dog, visit your cat or have a sleepover. You never pay them a cent.
For borrowers
No pets allowed where you live? Travel too much, or miss the pet you grew up with? Borrow a neighbour's dog, cat or rabbit for walks, play and cuddles. No food or vet bills to pay.
No paid strangers. Just neighbours who love pets, helping each other.
More walks, more play and less time alone, always the way their owner wants.
Busy day or going away? A neighbour your pet already knows can step in, so you can relax.
Walks, cuddles and fresh air with a pet, without paying for food or vet bills.
Bloom is free to join, and owners never pay borrowers. Borrowers help because they love pets.
“I found free dog sitting in Vancouver with Bloom when I needed help with Ye. It was easy to connect with trusted locals for dog walking and short-term pet care. A great alternative to expensive services which is the norm in Vancouver! Safe, flexible, and ideal for dog owners across Canada. A+”
