Ever booked a ride, watched the car roll up, and then watched the driver recoil at the sight of your dog and say NO THANKS? Nightmare over. Rideshare giant Lyft has just dropped Pet Mode — a red-hot new feature that finally makes it effortless to travel with your four-legged BFF.
Built by animal lovers, for animal lovers, Lyft's Pet Mode matches you with drivers who are 100-percent pet-friendly and itching to welcome furry riders aboard. Each Pet Mode trip costs just $4 more plus tax — and guarantees your ride is fully prepped for your pet, with that fee going straight into the driver's pocket. And once the ride's over, both you AND your dog get to rate the driver using adorable paw-print graphics. Seriously, it's genius.
“At Lyft, we believe that everyone belongs,” declares Audrey Liu, EVP of Rider Experience at Lyft. “And that absolutely includes our four-legged family members.”
