About us

Learn why we started

Connecting pet owners with local pet lovers for walks, weekends, holidays or shared-ownership.

How it Started

In 2023, Siyen and Jesper teamed up to create Co Pet Parent.

It all began when Siyen, going through a tough time after a breakup, sought help from his neighbor Linda to care for his dog Sammy. Linda, being a pet lover, not only took Sammy for walks but also showered him with love. This turned into a shared dog ownership arrangement, benefiting everyone involved.

Enter Jesper, eager to care for a dog but not ready for a full-time commitment. Sounds familiar?

Inspired by their shared experiences, they realized many people would love to help care for pets. And that's how our story began.

Why Co Pet Parent

We believe in the power of pet sharing, bringing advantages like more socializing for pets, consistent care during busy times, and shared financial responsibilities.

Recognizing the flaws in existing methods of finding pet co-parents, we built a platform to make connections easier and safer.

Our goal is to foster strong relationships between co-parents and create a supportive community for pet owners.

Shared responsibilities, better pet care

Busy schedules, guilt-free

Let's share our love for pets and take care of one together. Share responsibilities and guarantee your pet get’s the love it needs.

The play-time your pet needs

No short term sitter, but a dedicated co-pet parent who knows exactly what your pet wants and needs.

Own a pet, just not 24/7

Not being available 24/7 shouldn’t hold you back from being a great pet parent. Start your journey part-time.

Shared pet ownership,
made easy
