Digital Dogsitter was developed to solve a real problem. Juuso's Welsh Corgi, Väinö, was suffering from separation anxiety when he was younger. The situation got worse when we moved to a new apartment and none of the available methods of treatment seemed to help.
We wanted to find a friendly way to cure dog separation anxiety, finally coming up with an idea of Digital Dogsitter.
After building a prototype of the product, Väinö's problem was gone in less than a week. We created a beta-version and inspired by its success decided to make an easy-to-use software for everybody.
Väinö, the dog behind the idea
Väinö is a Welsh Corgi who enjoys long walks in the forest and fetching stick. Nothing beats playtime with his dog friends.
Juuso is the father of the idea and designer of the Digital Dogsitter. Juuso likes to do all sorts of nerdy stuff and to play StarCraft.
Eero takes care of the implementation and running of the service and appreciates a good cup of quality tea.
