The emotional bond between people and their pets has evolved along time, bringing with them the demands of new in shopping malls, restaurants and public zones from pet owners. The objective of this investigation was to identify the criteria of a pet owner family when is buying a new house, starting from their demands about open spaces for interaction. For this, a secondary source of information analysis was made, with the purpose of knowing the actual trends in the pet market and the transformation that they've had inside society. This descriptive study of qualitative nature has been made with buyers from Bambú, Teka, Zapán, Matiz and Siena, which are housing projects, built by Núcleo Constructora in Ciudad Natura in the city of Dosquebradas (Risaralda). The results of this study are relevant for the planning of new housing projects that can adapt to the needs and demands of actual families, that in general tend to be smaller and to have pets at home. Taking into consideration that pets are now considered active members in the families, demands of space are higher and the conception of the zones for living and interacting with pets inside and outside of the house become to play a fundamental role in the house buying decision taking.
