People have pets all around the world. According to the site Statista in 2018 103.8 million domestic cats lived in Europe. In the second place dogs (85 million). According to statistics, Europeans are also willing to have birds and small mammals (hamsters, mice, rabbits, etc.): there are 50,2 million and 26.8 million respectively. And the number of reptiles is only 7.8 million. And everyone who has a pet knows that it requires a lot of attention and constant care. All of this takes a lot of time, and in the conditions of modern life, time is a very valuable resource. That is why there are various services that help people save time on routine matters. Let’s look at how technologies for the care of animals contribute to the results of sales and marketing companies in Real Estate.
Walking a dog is considered the most popular service. There is a huge number of services that help to find a person who is willing to walk your pet instead of you! Some services exist only in certain cities, and there are those which work in several countries. DogWalk is a site where you can find a person to walk with your dog. You are to fill in a special form, where you should write your name and the nickname of a pet and leave the contacts for communication.
Platform/group for communication of the residents of the house who has pets. Undoubtedly, for those who are walking their pets every morning, to walk and chat in the pleasant company of the other owner – it is not just to walk the dog. Integrate this platform with another pet store or hotel for animals that are in your neighborhood – and “voila”. Not only will you win the heart of the owner of the dog, but you also will gather a community of people who can sell services that are in your house.
Another common service is keeping or so-called hotels for pets.
How often do we have to go somewhere abroad to work for a few days? And how often there is the case that you are sick and are unable to walk your pet?
For people who work in big international companies, the question of where to leave a cat or a dog while they are not home is very familiar. Or who can walk my pet if I need to leave for a day? The ability to find online someone who will take care of a pet, or book a hotel for animals in the house online will be a definite advantage when purchasing real estate. On Zoobooking.com you can easily find a temporary home for your pet during your absence or other emergencies. The service has a large database of hotels, which allows you to select and book a venue and have the opportunity to book additional services. Dogs platform has the same services: its employee-dogsitter takes a pet to his home, takes care of your pet, and you are sent reports on how the dog or cat spends time.
Technologies do not stand on the sidelines and in 2015, the company PetCube literally blew up the market by releasing a device for pets. Simply because it has opened our eyes to the fact that not the only people are living in apartments and that processes for the care for the animals are also should be automated. It is a device with the help of which the owners can monitor their pets, play with them using a laser pointer, controllable from phone and even feed the pet. After the appearance of PetCube new gadgets for Pets started appearing, and profiles of “Leopold the Cat” and “Dog Balto” begun also appearing on Facebook and Instagram.
In addition, inspired by their common passion for improving the well-being of pets and their owners, two friends, Roy Stein and Bill Rebozo have created a platform called BabelBark, the aim of which is an easy and affordable connection of pet owners to a reliable network of local veterinarians.
Recently the new program CleverPe appeared. It is a series of tasks designed to train a dog, cat or any other animal. This program is the result of years of experience in animal training using the software.
It is expected that the global market for pet care will grow at an average of 5.4 percent to 2025. It is affected by the fact that many people treat their pets like children and try to give them all the good things. Therefore, technologies in the field of animal care are gaining popularity. Soon there will be more hotels for pets, devices for remote communication and services to walk pets. So, technology is the future!
