Client testimonials
We’re helping thousands of businesses in growing
“Our experience with Doggies in Town has been very positive, we are a small neighborhood store and we had a somewhat limited audience and thanks to being in Doggies in Town we have had a much more open audience and people have come from other areas of Madrid. It has been something great because we have had a lot of new audiences with new experiences. We are delighted!”
“As we are very fond of animals, this initiative seemed original and excellent, a success! Since we have been in the app, humans and dogs have been able to come with a calm feeling and the experience of contact, has benefited both of us: us because we always like to pet furry heads and them, because in addition to a dog empanada, the predefined environment already means relaxation for the owner. Here’s to many more years!”
“Doggies in Town has helped other animal lovers discover my work as a dog photographer. The use of geolocation has allowed people close to my business to come to my photo studio to photograph their dog. A very useful app for photography businesses like mine! 100×100 recommended.”
