Dog Parker
Dog Parker is a membership based pay-by-the-minute doghouse service launched in a private pilot program in Brooklyn, NY in October 2015. The company [1] plans to install dog houses across New York City, as well as other locations across the US.[2]
In November 2016, Dog Parker announced the release of their new model that would be installed in various Brooklyn neighborhoods.[3] The new model contains an internet-connected webcam that users can view their dog with. Members use either the app or a membership card to lock and unlock the Dog Parker. Dog Parkers are also fitted with a UVC sanitation light, which handles surface level cleaning of the Dog Parker between daily maintenance visits.[4] The membership works similar to services such as Car2Go.[5]
Dog Parker was founded by Chelsea Brownridge and Todd Schechter in 2015 and completed the Entrepreneurs Roundtable Accelerator in NYC in 2016.[3]
