Brilliant! Uber has Uber Pet

By
A smiling woman in a fashionable white-and-black polka dot coat steps out of a car with a striking black-and-white print and the Uber logo. She is holding a small, brown, curly-haired dog (possibly a Maltipoo or poodle) in her arms. The text on the car and the context of the image suggest that this is about Uber Pets, a service for traveling with your pet.

There are those things that are almost too good to be true and then turn out to actually exist. Uber Pet is definitely one of those things. Because we all love to travel with Uber, but you never know if every driver is waiting for a little furry co-traveler. But you don't have to feel awkward when traveling with your pet, because Uber Pet actually exists, I found out recently.

A woman is sitting in the back seat of a black car and is smiling at the camera. She is wrapped in a warm, olive green blanket and is wearing a shiny, burgundy boot on the seat. Next to her is a small, light brown, curly-haired dog, looking out the window. The background is a brick wall of a house.

Stress-free with Uber Pet

Many people (58.21% even) experience stress when traveling with their pet, especially people between the ages of 30 and 39. They experience a lot of stress while traveling with their pet.

When you travel with Uber Pet, all that is a thing of the past. The driver knows that you are traveling with a pet, your pet is welcome, and the driver will drive calmly whenever possible to get you and your pet from A to B in a stress-free manner. Perfect for those moments when you really need to take your pet by car to an appointment – the vet, the dog groomer, the airport – and you’re not quite sure how to do that. So you don’t have to worry about that when traveling with Uber Pet.

With Uber Pet to Pamppy

I got to use Uber Pet last week and went, together with Daniëlle and her Teddy and my dog Monti, to Pamppy. When you talk about brilliant initiatives, like Uber Pet, Pamppy is another one. It’s a salon where owners and pets can enjoy a beauty treatment at the same time. So while Monti was getting an extensive brushing treatment, my feet were being massaged. Brilliant, right?

And afterwards, another Uber Pet was ready for us to take us home.

Uber Pet on Animal Day

If you’re wondering if it can get even better, I say: yes, it can! Because on Animal Day, anyone who has a pet and lives in Amsterdam can book a free experience via the Uber app, and you and your cat or dog will be taken to that fun Pamppy, where your dog or cat and you can enjoy a wellness treatment together. And afterwards, you’ll go back home pampered and satisfied. With Uber Pet, of course. You can book this starting October 1 at 12:00 PM in the Uber app.

In 2010, Uber started with a mission: to get access to a ride with one button. 15 years and 64 billion rides later, we can say that this has been quite successful. And more than that: Uber is a platform that opens the world to new possibilities, and Uber Pet is another wonderfully successful link in that.
