Let’s be honest. Everyone went out and got themselves a dog during the pandemic and now you have to go back to work and leave the pooch at home…
Since Uber launched Uber Pet in 2020, allowing riders to match with a driver-partner willing to transport their fur friend too, there’s been a 79% increase in pet owners travelling around the country with their beloved pooches. In particular, there’s been a 97% increase in riders commuting to and from work with pets!

How Uber Pet works
- Uber Pet is available in Sydney, Brisbane, Melbourne, Perth, Adelaide, Gold Coast, Canberra, Newcastle, Hobart, Cairns, Sunshine Coast, Geelong, Wollongong and Darwin.
- Not only is it a win for pet parents, but Uber Pet provides driver- partners who stay opted in, another opportunity to earn more via providing this service. The trip will attract a $6-7 ‘pet fee’ on top of the standard ride fare.
- If you’re travelling with a service animal, you should continue to select your regular Uber trip option. Assistance animals are legally allowed to go everywhere their owner goes and by law driver-partners cannot refuse a rider because they have a service animal.
