Pet Nabor’s “pet sharing” or “pet co-parenting” concept was derived from a real-life experience. The Founder and CEO of Pet Nabor, Roda rescued a Havanese that was a “runner”! She chipped him and tagged him with her phone number because anytime there was an open door, like lighting he would dash out and sprint down the sidewalk and then zip in and out of neighbor’s yards. On several occasions she had to put up posters on trees, stop signs, and fences to alert the community of her “LOST DOG!”. She would get out there immediately because time is of the essence with a speedy and adventurous doggy that loves to run! Fact is most people are honest, helpful, caring, and good and each time she was able to get him back quickly and easily!
The third time Teddy ran away, she got that memorable call from a neighbor, Julia who only lived 4 houses down and around the corner. “Hello is this Roda? I have Teddy!” Roda and Julia had never met prior to the incident. They soon became friends as the Julia was home a lot, and Roda was super busy with graduate school and work. Soon Teddy spent quality time with his new Pal Julia and Roda was able to get more stuff done, without feeling guilty that Teddy was by himself. There’s more to the story but in the end, she realized the importance of neighbors supporting neighbors and that people need to be nicer to one another. People need contact with their neighbors and sometimes it takes a dog to break the ice!
Then she realized that duplicating what she and Julia did, help each other out, share in caring for the Pet and enriching each other’s lives could be a thing and there should be an App for that! Ten years later, Roda finally put the idea in action! By pet sharing, neighbors can become co-parents and share in the love and care of a pet. In a time when people need to come together and become more neighborly… finally there is Pet Nabor!
