Around the country, folks who like dogs but don’t want to own one permanently are hanging out with shelter dogs for a few hours at a time.
[R]esearch has shown that when people interact with dogs, oxytocin — known as the love hormone — increases in both species. This is true even if you’re petting someone else’s friendly dog.
It’s not actually “Uber for dogs”, but I think it’s the closest thing we’ve got.
