This idea forgets that dogs and cats need company and cannot be kept locked up for weeks while people go on holiday. Even leaving them for a whole day is hard. If people cannot arrange (or afford) an alternative - such as a personally vetted pet sitter, or a relative or neighbour to come and feed/exercise - then really they should be asking themselves whether they should have a pet.
I suppose that an unseen emergency could arise with an animal lover, who needs to go away urgently and doesn't have any relatives or helpful neighbours living near. But is it wise to put your trust in an internet server not failing (they do fail from time to time, even the best) for the life of your beloved pet? It is not a risk I personally would want to take.
