Why we existMaking shared spaces work for people and pets.
We love our pets!And now more than ever, we want to share life together at home, at the café, and on holidays.
But our shared spaces weren't built with pets in mind.
There's the night-shift worker next door trying to sleep, the colleague chasing a deadline, and the café guest who's just not a dog person.And our pets feel it too. Anxious dogs, assistance animals, and even the goodest boys and girls can need help navigating our busy, human world.
That's the challenge that Bestr is here to solve.Creating a better world for our best friends.
