Ah yes, finally, a dating app for the people who greet dogs before their owners, have 14 dog photos in their camera roll (just from today), and cannot emotionally handle a dating profile that says “not a dog person.”
That’s Frolly for you, the dating app for dog lovers. But all cute puppy distractions aside, is Frolly any good? Does it actually help dog-loving singles meet better matches, or is it just another place for people to write “must love dogs” and then never meet up in person?
Here’s the bark about it.
Is Frolly safe?
It’s more private, it doesn’t connect to your Facebook, doesn’t show your last name, and doesn’t make it easy for randos to stalk your entire life story.
You’re matched by:
- location
- compatibility
- and your shared love of dogs (the universal trust builder)
Does Frolly have a ton of scammers?
Unfortunately, no app is safe from scammers, so still practice your due diligence. As usual, meet in public, don’t give out your personal info, and never send money (not even to someone claiming their chihuahua needs surgery).
Sidenote: Does getting scammed by this face make it better or worse?
What makes Frolly different?
Although many have tried to make a dog-dating-app and many have failed, we’d like to throw Frolly a bone and hope for the best.
Frolly hopes to help people find love through:
#1. Companion Profiles
You get a profile (obviously) and your dog gets a profile.
Yes, your dog is now a dating wingman.
These profiles help you see:
- Their dog’s size
- Temperament
- Couch privileges
- Activity level
So you don’t have a lifestyle mismatch or force your 11-year-old, half-pasteurized shih tzu into a morning run date with a husky.
#2. Shared Values
Dog people usually share:
- empathy
- responsibility
- routines
- outdoor habits
- the inability to walk past a dog without gasping
Is this relationship-enough material? We’re not sure, but it’s a start.
#3. Swiping for a good cause
25% of Frolly’s profits go to animal welfare, which is honestly the sweetest flex in dating-app history. You’re swiping, matching, and helping dogs.
Does Frolly have users already?
The app just officially launched in the end of October 2025, so it’s still quite fresh. Currently, it’s main userbase is in Charlotte, NC. It has plans to expand, but this will take time.
Frolly FAQs
Do I need to own a dog to join Frolly?
Nope, dog admirers can join, you just won’t have a companion profile, which feels awkward.
What’s Frolly’s age range?
Very mixed — 20s through 50s. It’s more lifestyle-driven than age-driven.
Can I see someone’s dog before I match?
Yes! If we’re being honest, the dog is the selling point anyway.
How much is Frolly?
Frolly is supposedly free until April 2026, then will have a subscription model of $12 a month.
Should you try Frolly?
Until Frolly’s had the chance to grow a bigger userbase, you’ll still have more luck on the main apps. Although dogs might boost right swipes, your photos still matter more than anything else.
Are your pics attracting the kind of dog-loving singles you want? Or do they say, “this person takes blurry mirror pics”?
