During the vacation and travel season, many are faced with the problem: who should they leave their pet with when they leave? Fortunately, the market for services for animals is actively growing; owners of dogs, cats and even exotic animals (for example, reptiles or chinchillas) today increasingly have an excellent opportunity to attach their smaller brothers to a zoo hotel, to professional private owners, or to use the services of a zoo nurse. Avito experts told Cleo about them in more detail.

Zoological hotel

So, if all your relatives and friends refuse to take your pet with them at the time of your departure, then you should find a hotel for him. Today, pet hotels are located either within the city or in the immediate suburbs. Sometimes a "hotel" means an ordinary apartment in which the breeder agrees to keep the pet for 250-300 rubles per day (be careful: this amount may not include food and walking). In a specially equipped zoo hotel, your pet will have its own aviary (for a dog) or a house (for a cat), it will be walked, fed and, if you discuss this with the owners in advance, even trained. Yes, you will have to spend a little more on such a pleasure (on average 400-500 rubles per day), but you will be sure that everything is fine with your pet.

Private apartment

The second option is overexposure by a private owner in his apartment. Many leave animals in the care of such specialists, so that all the attention and care of the owner is directed exclusively to their pet. In part, this approach is justified: the cost is comparable to a hotel (the same 200-300 rubles per day), and a pet, especially if it is too small, will not be stressed from keeping with other animals. This method of overexposure is also relevant for very small and shy dogs and cats. They will be more familiar in an apartment than in an aviary, and the experience of breeders, who most often offer services for private overexposure of animals, helps to cope with the psychological discomfort of pets.

Zoonyanya

Finally, consider the services of a pet nurse - a professional who will come to you to look after your pet at the time of departure. This service is still relatively new for Russia, but it is gaining popularity. So, if you do not want your dog or cat to leave their home, you can invite a nanny for the pet to your home. Caregivers can be with your pet for a certain number of hours a day or all the time. Such 24/7 supervision is estimated at 1-2 thousand rubles per day. Experts recommend looking for a zoonotic nurse in specialized companies. This way you can be sure of the safety of your pet and home.

Or should you take it with you?

Well, if you don't have the strength to endure separation from your pet, then you can find a solution to this problem. So, you can use a special cargo service (transportation service). The company (you can find it on the Internet) will arrange all the necessary documents and insurance for you so that you do not have to worry. Here you can also request a route correction at your request or an individual trip along the route you need. Experts are also ready to accompany the animal during the flight.

Thus, if you are leaving the city and for some reason cannot leave your pet with relatives or friends, then there are several options at your service. Make a decision depending on what is necessary for you and your pet, and remember: "We are responsible for those whom we have tamed."
