You Can Order a Puppy Play Date Through Uber Today


From now until 3 pm today, your Uber app will double as a furry-friend finder.

The Philly branch of the on-demand car company is teaming with Pennsylvania SPCA to bring folks puppy play dates all day with the tap of a button. If you select the “Puppies” option in the app, Uber will deliver an adoptable pet to office sites in Center City, Northern Liberties, Fishtown and the Navy Yard. You’ll get 15 minutes of playtime for $20. All proceeds benefit the PSPCA.

The complete directions on how to get your pup time are pasted below. For more information, including a map of office sites, go here.
