Before the Spring Festival, pet boarding is "hard to find", and some stores are rising.
Foster care in downtown Beijing generally exceeds 150 yuan a day, and high-end services rise to 1,000 yuan.
Beijing, February 1 (Reporter Zhou Yi) The Spring Festival is approaching, and some pet owners who plan to travel have made difficulties. Some of them tend to be sent to foster care. "This year's pet boarding market is hotter than usual. Today, the owner of a pet shop in Baiziwan, Chaoyang District, Beijing, said that the store began to provide appointment service a month in advance, and more than 30 rooms are now fully booked. In an interview, the reporter of "Worker**" found that at present, pet foster care is "hard to find" in Beijing, and some stores are fostered.
Booked half a month in advance, several pet stores near the home are still fully booked, and can only be sent to a store 3 kilometers away for fostering. Ms. Li, who lives in Qingnian Road, Chaoyang District, Beijing, wants to go back to her hometown for the New Year, and she booked a room in the pet store and put the two cats together for 250 yuan a day.
It costs 1,500 yuan for 8 days, which catches up with the living expenses of two or three months. In other words, it's more expensive than the house I rented. Ms. Li said frankly that the pet store provided the two cats with a space of almost 1 meter in length, width and height, and the cat litter and cat food need to be brought by themselves.
The Spring Festival bookings are saturated, combined with the experience of previous years, it is estimated that I will be busy from morning to night, and I feel like a homestay owner who picks up customers in the peak season. The owner of a pet shop said that the store can foster about 20 cats, and the room is divided into 3 stalls, ** between 200 yuan and 300 yuan a day.
According to industry insiders, during the Spring Festival, pet boarding in Beijing is generally more than 150 yuan per day, and dogs are a little more expensive than cats. There are also some high-end foster care agencies, which are more expensive and usually foster large dogs, which have higher requirements for activity space and companionship services.
Mr. Zhao is a member of a pet store in Chaoyang District, Beijing, that provides high-end foster care services, and his dog is often bathed and sheared in the store. During the Spring Festival this year, Mr. Zhao chose a high-end foster room of about 10 square meters for him, which is not only taken care of around the clock, but also has an outdoor lawn where you can play, ** for 1,000 yuan a day. Mr. Zhao revealed that the Spring Festival foster care cannot enjoy the membership price, and the cost is 1About 5 times. At the same time, he is also worried: "Although the store promises high-quality service and all-round camera coverage, there are still some hidden dangers that are difficult to avoid, and I am afraid that it is difficult to determine the responsibility for problems." ”
The reporter learned that under normal circumstances, when making an appointment for a foster care room, you need to read and agree to a foster care agreement, and you need to sign a paper agreement when making an appointment. However, in some small pet stores in the community, there are still cases where there is no need to sign an agreement.
Before choosing pet fostering, it is best to conduct on-site inspections to check whether the business qualifications are complete, whether the health conditions are up to standard, and whether the service content and service attitude meet their expectations. Tian Xiance, a lawyer at Heilongjiang Langxin Yinlong Law Firm, said that signing a written foster care agreement can effectively avoid disputes. In the event of an accident with a pet, the pet owner should collect all evidence related to fostering, including foster care agreements, vouchers, pets**, medical records, etc., in order to protect their rights.
