Uber the ride sharing service is trying out a new idea in the USA. It is an option called Uber Pets. Drivers who respond to Uber Pets requests will be willing to let you bring you pet along. They will charge a small amount extra for the service, but you will be sure your pet can ride with you.

This is a good response from Uber. They are recognizing that we have pets and sometimes we need to transport them.
Right now it is uncertain if a driver will accept a pet. This just takes a bit of stress off when you need a right for your pet.
Of course this does not apply to service dogs who get to ride no matter what without a service charge.
Now if only other companies would become pet friendly.
