You can often take a Didi or Hitch (ride-sharing) with your pet, as these platforms generally allow pets. However, it's best to include a note when placing your order and communicate with the driver in advance to confirm that they are comfortable with having a pet in the car. This will help avoid any issues and delays during your journey.
Two Ways to Ride-Share with Your Pet
1. Yiwei Hitch (一喂顺风车)
Established in 2014, Yiwei Hitch is a lesser-known but recently popular ride-sharing platform. You can also find it on Tongcheng Travel. Unlike other ride-sharing services, Yiwei Hitch offers a dedicated pet transportation service. By booking a ride within this service category, you are almost guaranteed to find a driver, and often these drivers are pet owners themselves, making them more understanding and accommodating. Although slightly more expensive, this service is professional, and it’s advisable to book at least a month in advance as pet transportation services are very popular. According to customer service, their pet transport service is in high demand.
2. Didi
When booking a Didi Hitch with a pet, remember to mention "with pet" in the notes. It is crucial to communicate with the driver beforehand to confirm they are okay with having a pet in the car to prevent potential disputes after the trip has started. The shared ride option can be very economical, especially with coupons. It is very important to secure your pet in the car by using a pet seatbelt or pet car seat on the back seat. For longer trips, owners must plan and address their pet's restroom needs.
Important Tips for Taking Ride-Shares with Pets
1. Take your pet to the bathroom before the ride. Also, reduce their food intake before the ride to prevent car sickness and vomiting.
2. Use an appropriate pet carrier. For cats, keeping them in a carrier can minimize loose hair and help maintain the cleanliness of the car.Related resource:Pet Training
