because uber needs to comply with the ada act just like any company.

Is Uber saying no? Or are drivers cancelling rides when they realize there's an animal that wasn't disclosed previously, and they aren't part of Uber Pets?

Because there's a distinct difference there.

There actually isn't. Uber is responsible for their contractors and are liable when they fuck up. As they are the ones who hired them.
