Do you love to travel with your dog? We're making it easier!

Start-up Company ‘Air Bark’n’Bark’ today announced their new mobile App ‘Air Bark’n’Bark’, will be launched in December. Air Bark’n’Bark is an exciting new App that offers a unique solution for anyone travelling with a dog to connect with other travellers and local services for dog minding.

“As dedicated dog lovers who love to travel, we’ve experienced first-hand how difficult it can be when you need to find a dog minding service while on the road” says Abbey Wehrung, Director and co-founder at Air Bark’n’Bark “so we are building a network of ‘minders and finders’ to connect for dog sitting services. We want you to make the most of the places you visit and not have to consider surrendering your dog or re-home them because it’s too hard”.

Features and benefits of the App include:

• Using GPS location maps, users will be able to see minders in the local area
• Users can plan ahead, by searching a specific location
• With a 5-paw rating system, users can be reassured their dog is safe
• Users can offer reciprocal dog sitting, so a win for those on a budget
• Provides opportunity to make money on the road while spending time with a lovely dog
• The App facilitates the connection - users set their own fees 
• There is no booking fee 

For Air Bark ’n’ Bark to be effective, a functional network of dog lovers across Australia, particularly grey nomads, remote workers, families on the road, or anyone who’s just enjoying ‘vanlife’ is required. To build this network, the app will be free for the first 3 months. Once a strong network of users is established, there will be a small subscription fee and you can choose monthly, bi-annual, or annual subscriptions. 

Air Bark’n’Bark understands how important your dog is to you, so they are building a community that will be safe and supportive. They take your safety very seriously, and your dog’s safety too, and want you to have complete confidence in whichever sitter you choose as you travel. Their website provides a range of hints and tips on travelling with a dog and how to make sure the dog minding experience is a positive one. 

The App will be available from late December.  For more information on the App visit https://www.airbarknbark.com.au/ where you can register your interest in joining or becoming an early community member.
