Some European tourist hotspots now offer dog-sitting services FMTNews FMTLifestyle
With 1 in 5 pet owners reluctant to leave their furkids alone while visiting tourist attractions, pet-sitting services are responding to growing demand.
The Fondazione Musei Civici di Venezia , which manages Venice’s 11 municipal museums, has teamed up with a company called BauAdvisor to offer a dog-sitting service to art lovers in Italy. To use it, visitors must reserve a time slot on the BauAdvisor website, specifying the date and time of their visit to the museum of their choice.
No wonder the country is often described as one of the most welcoming destinations for dogs, cats and other domestic creatures. It also has a wide variety of hotels and restaurants that accept pets, and there are even some dog-friendly beaches, such as Baubeach near Rome, Dog Beach in San Vincenzo, and Bau Bau Beach near Venice.
The idea is similar to that of BauAdvisor, in that dog owners can drop off their furry friend at specially adapted premises of 100 sq m, right in the heart of Strasbourg, while they visit the city’s Notre-Dame cathedral, the Opéra national du Rhin, or the historic wine cellar of the Alsatian city’s Hospices Civils.
