Have a Pet Friendly Vacation with your Dog

May 7, 2015 by Mary Telesz

Paw-Pals-Dog-Vacation-600x450During National Pet Week I would like to talk about family vacations and how they are a way to get away from the daily grind, relax, and regroup with your dog. Having a family vacation includes bringing your furry companions but what does that actually entail? Not every hotel will accommodate our four legged friends; in fact, there is a great deal of preparation needed to have an enjoyable vacation with your pet.

  1. Choose your destination: There are many great sites out there that are dedicated to ensuring you have a wonderful vacation. Bringfido.com is a great site that breaks down pet friendly destinations by state and town. K9RoadTrip.com showcases pet friendly rest areas, and dog parks along major highways.Paw-Pals-Dog-Rest-Area-600x450
  2. Plan your route: know in advance where there are pet friendly rest areas. Some gas stations even offer a doggy play area that is free to use. Just make sure to clean up after your pet. Make sure that these areas aren’t too far apart. Dogs, like people, need to be able to relieve themselves.
  3. Find pet friendly hotels: This is not only for your destination but also for along your route. In the event that there is a major accident or you need to stop overnight you should know which hotels will accommodate your whole family.

With these tips in mind you will be able to create happy memories with all the members of your family. Enjoy your vacation and get your well deserved relaxation.Paw-Pals-Dog-Sign

I wasn't sure about hiring a new doggie walker service... after all they are our kiddos... my babies were in great hands and I felt relaxed having them in their care. Thank you for everything!

When we adopted our new dog in January, Paw Pals agreed to walk her and give her some outside time so she wasn't in the crate all day. She loved her dog walker and you could see her excitement every time the walker showed up. We moved out of the area but would recommend Paw Pals to anyone needing someone to care for their pets.

We are so grateful we found Mary and her team at Paw Pals. They are exceptionally responsive, amazingly organized and detail-oriented.We have such peace of mind when we travel knowing our home and pets are so well cared for. Paw Pals is the best pet sitting service we’ve used, and we’re so happy we found them.

We have used Paw pals pet sitting on multiple occasions for our bunnies while we are away. Many pet sitters are not interested in small pets however; Mary and her team, are amazing and we trust her implicitly! We are very happy with the outstanding service we have received from her team including texts and photos of our pets when we are out of town. They always go the extra mile and we highly recommend them!

We have been using Paw Pals for several years, and through a variety of pets that we have loved. Mary and her team have always been *exceptional* in every way. They are professional, courteous, and truly love our fur family! Mary herself is an organized and stellar administrator of her pet care business, keeping detailed records of our pet’s needs, scheduled pet visits, payments, and balance due easy to keep track of as the pet owner. The pet caretaking team is reliable and trustworthy. When our dogs see any of their Paw Pal friends, they get SO excited to see them! Follow up comments are left via text to keep the pet owner informed of the visit and how the pets are faring. Paw Pals has allowed our family the peace of mind to leave our pets at home, for work, weekend getaways and longer times away when necessary, where they are the most comfortable and familiar. We are grateful to Mary and her team for giving us the ability to enjoy pet ownership without feeling tied down. The responsibility of having pets comes with the need to keep them safe and comfortable at all times, and Mary and her team affords us this when our family has to be away.
