Tired of leaving your furry family members at home when you hit the road for a vacation or business trip? My online reference guide to pet-friendly travel is just what you need!
Sure, you can´t bring your four-legged family members everywhere on vacation (or into those dull business meetings). But have you considered staying at a dog-friendly hotel with a doggy day care establishment nearby? Fido could join you for dog-friendly activities and attractions, and then romp with his new friends on the days you head off to a museum or theme park.
So “paws” awhile here before your next trip and check out the hotels and inns, shops and restaurants, kennels and tourist attractions that don´t just permit pets, but often welcome them with open arms. Unless noted, every establishment listed here has been personally inspected by yours truly and carries my Paw Stamp of Approval.*
* Under each hotel and inn listed in the "Dog-Friendly Lodgings" section, I include information on local emergency vet services and at least one local kennel that offers day boarding. Except where noted, I have not used these vet and boarding services.
