Taking pets on trips is becoming popular, with about 70% of pet owners willing to bring their pets when traveling.

Nowadays, pets are gradually becoming new "companion" for people when traveling. Data from platforms shows that by 2025, the size of the urban dog and cat consumption market in China has exceeded 310 billion yuan, with a year-on-year increase of 4.1%. About seventy percent of pet owners are willing to travel with their pets. With the continuous rise of "traveling with pets", efforts are also being made to create a "pet-friendly" tourism environment. To promote standardized pet travel and systematic service, the release of the group standard "Management Service Specification for Human-Pet Friendly Tourism Space" and the empowerment of smart platforms provide guidance and support for travelers, scenic spots and businesses. Li Dexin, Secretary-General of the Scenic Area Branch of the Tourism Industry Committee of the All-China Federation of Industry and Commerce, introduced that the release of the standard will address some challenging issues such as safety, hygiene, and epidemic prevention through standardization. This year, they have also launched the "One Hundred Plans", which aims to open the doors of tourist spaces to pet families by building the intelligent platform "Pet-friendly" and registering with digital identities.
