2. Description of the Related Art Recently, the purpose of keeping dogs, cats and other animals has changed. In the past, dogs have been kept exclusively for use as guards of the house, hounds for hunting prey, etc., as a kind of human life tool. Cats were originally kept in houses to eliminate rats that harm humans.

However, recently, the number of consumers who call dogs and cats as pets and pet as important partners in their lives has been increasing. The reason for this is that, with the declining birth rate and the aging of society, the number of people who feel stress and loneliness is increasing, and the number of those who seek pets for healing is increasing. Some critics do.

At present, the percentage of households that have pets in all households in Japan is 18% for dogs and 8% for cats.
It is a lot. On the other hand, especially in urban areas, apartments that are free to keep pets (called pet-friendly housing)
In the meantime, the number of troubles among residents related to pets is increasing. Complaints from neighbors who do not have pets are caused by the noise and smell of the pets. In addition, there is a problem of how to treat pet excrement and allergy.

[0005] In addition, there is a trouble between the residents who have pets and the owners of pet-friendly houses. The reason is that pets stain the wallpaper, the smell of the room cannot be removed, etc., making it difficult to manage the house without renting the room, or between the people who have pets and those who do not have pets. And the landlord struggles.

For this reason, there are few pet-friendly housing properties handled by real estate agents. About 5% of all rental properties in central Tokyo, about 10% in Tokyo and nearby prefectures, and about 2% in local areas.
At present, it is only 0%. It is said that one in three real estate agents in a real estate store in Tokyo asks, "Can you live with your pet?" As described above, the current situation is that the supply of pet-friendly houses is small relative to the demand.

However, recently, home builders have renovated or newly constructed a “pet house” equipped with various facilities for pets on the premise of keeping pets in order to meet the demand for pet-friendly houses. An attempt has begun. In such a pet-only house, for example, a pet washing place and a waste disposal facility are provided outside the building to take measures against pet smell and hygiene, and a playground exclusively for animals and a dog run are provided to reduce animal noise. We consider so that it does not reach.

Also, inside the above-mentioned building for exclusive use of pets, sound-insulating wall materials are used to make it difficult for pet sounds to leak to the outside, deodorizers and ventilating equipment for pets, pet doorways, pet fences, indoor hooks, etc. Shampoo dresser,
By installing various pet facilities such as a pet-only elevator, noises, smells, and other inconveniences to the outside are prevented, and consideration is given to eliminating troubles caused by pets among the residents.

Furthermore, in order to preserve the aesthetics of the interior of the building, floor materials that are resistant to scratching, soak, and can be replaced at a low cost can be used. Floors and walls can be easily renewed, making it easy to replace them, so that the inside of the building can be preserved neatly, so that the landlord can run a stable home without trouble with the residents I have to.

[0010]

The pet-only house is still in the trial stage, and there are various problems to be solved in addition to the above facilities.

However, it takes time and effort, and it is difficult for pet-symbiotic clients who have just moved in to get appropriate pet services in a timely manner because of the lack of local circumstances. In addition, since the pet business is not always a good business operator, there is a possibility that the pet business may be involved in an unexpected trouble.

The second problem is that in order for a pet-only house in which all residents have pets to exist smoothly and safely, a pet community in which all pet symbiotic clients participate is essential. . The establishment and management of a pet community requires special management skills and experience.

[0013] Accordingly, the present invention provides an individual pet symbiotic client, who is a resident of a pet-only home, provides necessary pet services from a pet-related entity in a timely, appropriate, safe,
A first problem is to provide a pet symbiotic life assist service system that supports (assists) the entire pet life of a pet symbiotic client so that it can be obtained easily and at low cost.

A second object of the present invention is to provide a pet symbiosis life assist service system that provides daily assistance for establishment, operation, and management of a pet community of a pet-only house.

[0015]
