Family trips are a joy, but do you always end up leaving your furry friend at home?
gogoout is launching a pet-friendly car rental campaign, so you never have to leave them behind on your mountain and seaside adventures again. Self-drive trips no longer mean choosing between the two!
Rent a car at participating locations and you can borrow a pet car seat protector for free, plus receive a little gift just for your pet, so you can hit the road whenever you like, with no extra hassle.
To protect your pet’s wellbeing and keep the rental company’s vehicles clean, gogoout doesn’t want owners to be charged cleaning fees because of unexpected incidents. To avoid that, please pay close attention to the following points!
Things to know about renting a car with a pet
1. Bring your own pet carrier to take care of the vehicle and respect other renters: (service for large dogs is not available at this time)
The pet carrier size accepted by most vehicles is
- Length: 45–50 cm
- Width: 30–35 cm
- Height: 28–35 cm
If your pet or its carrier fits within these dimensions, you’re all set to hit the road together!
2. Because pets shed, please bring a blanket, seat protector or similar covering whenever possible so hair doesn’t scatter throughout the car, which could lead to a cleaning fee.
3. Bringing pets on board is only allowed at pet-friendly rental locations. If you have any questions, please call or message customer service when you book.
4. Free pet car seat protector rental is available only at these locations: 直航租車承德店 (Chihang Car Rental, Chengde branch) and Banqiao HSR branch. Quantities are limited, so please book ahead or contact customer service for help.
Pet-friendly car rental agreement
gogoout gives each car a thorough interior cleaning after it is returned, and we also ask owners to help keep the car tidy so the next renter can enjoy a comfortable, worry-free rental too.
1. At drop-off, if the car is found to have odors, stains or shed hair, a cleaning fee of NT$3,000 will be charged. If the vehicle is heavily soiled or damaged, compensation will be quoted based on the actual condition; if the pet seat protector is noticeably soiled, a cleaning fee of NT$200 will be charged.
2. We understand accidents happen: if your pet pees or poops in the car, please clean it up before returning the vehicle so we can all keep the cars clean.
3. There are more germs outdoors, so we recommend using a flea and mosquito repellent spray before heading out; it creates a protective layer on your pet’s fur and skin and helps keep fleas away.
