Our furry friends

Are you the proud owner of a dog? Would you like to take a boat tour to discover the highlights of our famous European capital?

With PatchGuard, you don’t have to deprive yourself of this experience or leave your dog alone! PatchGuard provides a dog-sitting service near Strasbourg’s tourist attractions and other sites where pets aren’t allowed. To enjoy a hassle- and stress-free boat tour, entrust your dog to Laetitia, the founder of PatchGuard! Just a stone’s throw from the Batorama Jetty (near the Cathedral), a special 100 m² facility will welcome your dog, who will benefit from a wide range of activities. They'll also receive plenty of attention to guarantee their comfort and well-being.

• The animal’s papers must be in order (no systematic check is carried out, but their owner may be subject to a check and the animal may therefore not be accepted).
• The animal must be in an appropriate carrier bag, with maximum dimensions of L42 x W32 x H36 cm.
• If the bag containing the animal is on the lap of the person in charge, there is no associated cost.
• If the person in charge wants to place the carrier bag with the animal inside on a seat next to them, they must purchase a seat for their pet at the adult fare (or full or normal fare). The animal in the bag should come into contact with other customers as little as possible. A single person should therefore choose a window or aisle seat. If there are at least two people in charge, they should put the bag containing the animal on the seat between them.
• If the animal behaves in a way that does not allow for a calm and clean cruise, the person in charge may be required to disembark at the nearest jetty. If the animal’s behaviour requires that the boat be cleaned, a minimum fee of €150 will be charged to the person in charge of the animal.
