Pet Friendly Taxi in Pune — Cabs That Allow Dogs & Cats
Every pet owner in Pune knows the routine. You book a cab, the driver arrives, sees the carrier, and cancels. You book again. Three drivers later you are still standing outside with a nervous dog and an appointment you are going to miss.
Kad Cabs runs a pet friendly taxi in Pune so that does not happen. Tell us you are travelling with a pet at the time of booking and we send a driver who has agreed to the trip beforehand.
Why This Needs Its Own Service
App-based cabs leave the decision to whichever driver accepts. Some are fine with animals, most are not, and you find out at the kerb. There is no way to filter for it and no way to guarantee it.
Booking directly removes the guesswork. We know before dispatch that your ride involves a pet, the driver knows, and nobody is surprised.
What You Get
- Driver who agreed in advance — not someone discovering your dog at pickup
- No extra pet charge — the fare is the same as any other booking
- Car cleaned after the trip, at our cost, not billed to you
- Room for a carrier — tell us the size and we send a suitable car
- Driver details before pickup — name, number and car by SMS, so you can call ahead
- 24 hours — including emergency vet runs at 2 AM
Common Trips
- Vet visits — routine checkups, vaccinations, and emergencies
- Airport drops — for pets travelling in cargo or cabin. See Pune airport cabs.
- Relocation — moving home within Pune or to another city
- Grooming and boarding — drop and pickup runs
- Outstation trips — Lonavala, Mahabaleshwar, Mumbai, Nashik
- One-way drops — see one way taxi in Pune
Which Car to Book
- Sedan — a small dog or cat in a carrier, one or two people. Swift Dzire.
- SUV — a large dog, a big carrier, or a pet who travels better with floor space. Ertiga or Rumion. Worth the difference for anything above knee height.
- Innova Crysta — long outstation trips, where the extra space and quieter cabin help an anxious animal
- Tempo traveller — multiple pets, or a relocation with luggage and animals together
Our honest advice: if your dog is large, book the SUV. A big animal in a sedan back seat is uncomfortable for everyone, and the fare difference is small next to a two-hour trip gone wrong.
Fares
The same rates as any other booking — from ₹11 per kilometre for a hatchback, rising by car type. There is no pet surcharge and no cleaning fee. Toll and parking, where applicable, are charged at actual cost.

Travelling With Your Pet — What Actually Helps
- Skip the meal before the trip — an empty stomach travels far better, especially on ghat roads
- Bring a familiar blanket or toy — the smell settles them faster than anything you can say
- Leash on, or carrier closed — before the car door opens, not after
- Carry water and a collapsible bowl — particularly on outstation trips
- Tell the driver how your pet reacts — nervous, barks at traffic, prone to sickness. He will drive accordingly.
- Ask for a window seat cracked open — moving air helps with nausea
- Plan a stop every two hours on long drives, for water and a walk
Outstation With a Pet
Long drives need more planning than a vet run. On outstation trips we build in stops every couple of hours so your pet can stretch, drink and relieve itself. Tell us at booking that a pet is travelling and the driver plans halts into the route rather than treating them as delays.
An SUV or Crysta is the sensible choice for anything over two hours. See outstation cab booking in Pune.
Pet Taxi Versus the Alternatives
| Option | Pet comfort | Reliability | Cost |
|---|---|---|---|
| Pet-friendly taxi | Good — car and driver chosen for the trip | Confirmed in advance | Moderate |
| App-based cab | Poor — no space planning, driver unprepared | Frequent cancellations | Low |
| Auto rickshaw | Poor — open, noisy, no containment | Varies | Low |
| Own car | Best | Full control | Highest |
If you have your own car, use it. If you do not, this is the next best thing.
Booking
Call +91-8466847272. Mention that you are travelling with a pet, the type and rough size, and whether it will be in a carrier. That is all we need to send the right car and a driver who is expecting you.
For a vet emergency, call rather than using the form — we will move faster.
Frequently Asked Questions
Do you actually allow pets, or does it depend on the driver?
We allow them. Tell us at booking and we assign a driver who has agreed to the trip beforehand, so there is no cancellation at the kerb.
Is there an extra charge for travelling with a pet?
No. The fare is the same as any other booking, and there is no cleaning fee. Cleaning the car afterwards is our cost, not yours.
What does a pet-friendly taxi cost in Pune?
From ₹11 per kilometre for a hatchback, rising by car type — the same as our standard rates. Toll and parking are charged at actual cost.
Does my pet need to be in a carrier?
Not necessarily, though it is easier for small animals and safer on long trips. A leash is enough for a well-behaved dog. Tell us either way so we send a suitable car.
Which car should I book for a large dog?
An SUV. A big animal in a sedan back seat is uncomfortable for everyone, and the fare difference is small compared with a difficult two-hour trip.
Can I book a pet taxi at night for an emergency?
Yes, we run 24 hours. For a vet emergency, call rather than filling the form — it is faster.
Do you do outstation trips with pets?
Yes. We build in stops every couple of hours so your pet can stretch and drink, and the driver plans them into the route rather than treating them as delays.
What should I bring for the trip?
A leash or carrier, water and a collapsible bowl, and a familiar blanket or toy. Skip your pet's meal before the trip — an empty stomach travels much better.
