Confident welcomes
Pawthority lets your teams confirm a certified assistance dog team at reservation or check-in, quietly and respectfully, so a welcome is never a challenge. No personal data changes hands.
How it works
The optional verification step can appear at reservation, through your own booking system or an online travel agent, so arrival is already cleared.
A guest can verify quietly at the desk. Staff see only a verified result, never anything about health or disability.
GDPR-minimisedThe confirmation is recorded with the booking, so the welcome is settled before the guest arrives.
Verification is always voluntary and never a condition of a booking or a welcome. No personal data leaves the certifying authority's control without authorisation.
Hospitality sectors
Choose your setting for the detail, the rules it operates under, and how verification fits.
Stay
Confirm status at reservation or check-in, discreetly, with a record held against the booking.
Book
Offer optional verification at reservation, so guests arrive already cleared.
Regulation
Assistance dogs are exempt from no-dogs policies, and food hygiene guidance permits them in dining areas.
Voluntary
A guest who declines keeps every existing right of entry. Verification is a tool for confidence.
Safeguard
Every check matches the dog's microchip to its handler using an opaque token, confirming the pairing. No guest identity, health or disability data is ever revealed.
Audit
A clear, timestamped record of what was confirmed, kept with the booking.
What the operator gains
Staff welcome handlers without hesitation or awkward questioning.
Fewer refusals, refunds and reputational incidents at the door.
A log of what was confirmed, held against the reservation.
No guest health or disability information collected or stored.
Non-negotiable principles
Verification is never a condition of a booking or a welcome. Declining changes nothing about a guest's rights.
Only a microchip number and an opaque match token cross the connection.
A clear, auditable match, consistent every time.
Every check writes one timestamped, immutable record.
