Our pets are part of our family and more and more people are taking them on vacation. Your pets can now travel with you. Many of your favorite establishments will grant your pets the same respect as they grant you. Remember that not all hotels will accept pets. Do your research before making a reservation. Even though lots of hotels bill themselves as “pet friendly,” find out if they really are. Also find out the cost of bringing your pet along.  Most pet friendly hotels will offer some amenities to your pets like dog treats or cat toys.  Some hotels go all out for our pets like offering dog play areas, dog and cat beds, blankets and even pet sitters to stay with your pet while you’re out site seeing!  If you are planning a vacation with your pets find lodging that is suitable, know the price and ask about the “extra’s” so your pet can have a good time along with you. Remember, your pets count!
