Cats are often seen as low-maintenance pets, but that doesn’t mean they don’t need attention. If you’re thinking of using Lyft to transport your cat, there are a few things you should know. For starters, all cats must be in a carrier while in the vehicle.
This is for the safety of both the driver and the cat. Secondly, it’s important to let your driver know that you’ll be bringing a cat so they can be prepared.
- Open the Lyft app and sign in
- Tap the icon with your Profile photo in the top left corner of the home screen
- Select ‘Payment’ from the menu that appears
- Tap ‘Add Payment Method
- Enter your payment information, then tap ‘Save
- Request a ride by tapping ‘Set Pickup Location’ and entering your destination address into the Search bar at the top of the screen, then selecting your desired vehicle type below
Can You Bring Pets in Uber
If you’re considering using Uber to transport your pet, there are a few things you should know first. First and foremost, only service animals are allowed in Uber vehicles. This includes dogs that are trained to provide assistance to people with disabilities.
If you’re not sure whether your dog qualifies as a service animal, check with the Americans with Disabilities Act for more information. Secondly, even if your dog is a service animal, it’s important to remember that not all Uber drivers are comfortable transporting animals. When you request an Uber ride, be sure to let your driver know that you’ll be bringing along a pet so they can decide whether or not they’re comfortable taking the trip.
And finally, keep in mind that Uber charges an additional fee for rides with service animals. The price will depend on the city you’re in and the length of your trip, but expect to pay at least a few dollars extra for bringing along your furry friend.
