The 6 Best Dating Sites for Dog Lovers

Don’t deny it: 98% of the time when you’re walking your dog around your favorite neighborhood park, you’re secretly daydreaming about getting your leash tangled with that cute dog walker comin’ your way.

That’s the stuff great meet-cutes are made of, right? But life just doesn’t always shake out that way (or ever, really), which is why we really love the internet and its abundance of dating sites for dog lovers. These sites make dating people who love dogs that much easier.

Date My Pet

Anonymous? You bet it is. Until you want to take it to the next step. Whether you’re looking for your future spouse (best of luck to you!), an off-leash park partner, or simply want to be pals with someone who loves dogs and is therefore a good human (that’s how it works, right?), DateMyPet.com is fun and safe.

 

Pet People Meet

If your dog is an important part of your life (and let’s be honest, if someone asked if you had any kids, you’d count Fido as one), PetPeopleMeet.com is yet another great option for you. Single dog-lovers coming together for anything from a day at the dog park with a new friend to a full-on married-with-kids situation is the name of the game here. Set up photo albums to swap photos of you and Spot, send messages, and *hopefully* fall in love.

Doggone Singles

Doggone singles is a free site with fun features like sending winks to interesting singles and an encounters feature that has the site choose potential dating partners to you based on your mutual interests.

 

Leashes and Lovers

Oh yeah, it’s exactly what it sounds like. Find friends, a single date, or a full-fledged relationship with a fellow dog-lover, and then tell people you met when your leashes got tangled together. It’s kind of true after all, right?

Tindog

It’s Tinder— but for dogs and their people. Use the app to swipe right to discover matches for you or your dog, and chat with matches in your area.

 

Meetup.com

These days, there’s a Meetup for just about everything, which means if you want to go to a bi-weekly corgi sweater walk around your city’s lake, there’s probably already a group that does that. And if there isn’t, there’s probably a whole bunch of people who wish there were. The best way to meet people is by building community, and if you bring your Great Dane to a community full of Great Danes and their parents, there’s a good chance you’ll come out of there with a friendship—or a little more.
