Hire a robot dog
Robot dogs are the easiest way to make an event or a video impossible to ignore. Hire one by the hour or day from a local owner on Ollee, handler included on most listings.
What a robot dog does at your event
A quadruped like the Unitree Go2 walks, trots, climbs stairs, shakes hands, dances and poses for photos. At a brand activation it pulls a crowd to your stand. At a launch or a party it is the thing everyone films and posts. On a content shoot it gives you footage that would otherwise need a production budget. None of this is hypothetical; robot dogs are the most booked robot type on rental platforms worldwide, precisely because they are reliable, portable and instantly likeable.
They also do quieter work: site walkthroughs, inspection runs, and camera platform duties in places you would rather not send a person.
Models you will see on Ollee
- Unitree Go2: the most common rental quadruped. Fast, agile, easy to transport in a car boot, and happy indoors or out.
- Unitree B2 and larger platforms: bigger, stronger industrial quadrupeds for site work and heavier payloads.
Availability depends on what local owners have listed, so browse the current listings or post a task describing your event and let owners come to you.

Common questions
How much does robot dog hire cost?
Expect somewhere around $100 to $250 an hour for an event appearance with a handler, or a few hundred dollars for a day, depending on the model and what you need it to do. Each Ollee listing shows the owner's actual hourly and daily rate.
Does it come with someone to run it?
Usually, yes. For events and shoots the owner typically operates the robot dog or sends a trained handler, and that is the setup we recommend. The listing and the booking chat make it clear what is included.
Are robot dogs safe around crowds and kids?
Modern quadrupeds like the Unitree Go2 have obstacle avoidance and move predictably at walking pace, and with a handler present they are well suited to crowds. Agree the space and any ground rules with the owner in the booking chat.
Can I hire one just for a photo or video shoot?
Yes, and it is one of the most common bookings. An hour or two is often enough to get the shots, which keeps the cost down.
Own a Unitree?
If you have a Go2 or any other quadruped sitting idle between projects, it can be earning. List it on Ollee, set your rates and availability, and take bookings on your own terms. You can also look at humanoid robot hire or the full rental pricing guide.
