Kakao Mobility will launch a new cab-hailing service in March that will allow pets to ride with their owners.
The country’s leading taxi-hailing firm will equip each cab with safety fences, pet-exclusive car seats, and other pet-related equipment.
The service will also introduce group insurance for pet transportation and pet accident insurance.
KakaoT Pet is classified as an animal transportation service with drivers registered as animal transportation workers.
While the introduction of the newly amended Animal Protection Act in 2017 has prompted many to put up similar businesses, South Korea’s pet taxi industry has lagged in terms of growth due to unstable demand.
