Can pets be taken into reception centres or shared accommodation in Saxony?

If you travel to Leipzig with one or more pets and don’t have private accommodation, please contact the Leipzig Welcome Centre . They will search for accommodation that will allow you to live together with your pet. This accommodation might not necessarily be in Leipzig, however.

If you really want to stay in Leipzig but cannot be guaranteed accommodation together with your pet in Leipzig, you can temporarily give your pet to an animal shelter. You can also place it in a private foster home. In cases like this, many people also look for private accommodation so that they can live together with their pet. Further information on your options can be found here.
