PET TRAVEL ETIQUETTES 101
Let’s just jump right into the tips, shall we?
- Make sure that the hotel you’ve booked has a pet policy. It’s crucial to ask about a hotel’s pet policy and mention that you’ll be bringing your furry friend along so that they can prepare accordingly. If possible, have them send you a written copy of the policy.
- Thoroughly go through the hotel pet policy so that you don’t miss anything or unknowingly violate it.
- The hotel may ask for an additional fee. If they do, don’t argue with them. You can look for a place that doesn’t charge additional fees.
- Before entering a restaurant, pool, park, or any other public space, ask them about their pet policy.
- Carry extra blankets to cover the furniture your dog might be on. It is natural for dogs to shed. But, the hotel staff shouldn’t have to deal with dog hair on the furniture.
- Don’t leave your pet alone in the hotel room for extended periods of time. If you plan on doing so, it is best to leave him alone at home. Other guests in the hotel shouldn’t be bothered by your furry friend.
- Make sure you have plenty of treats and toys to keep your dog entertained. Don’t let your dog chew on the hotel furniture and other items.
- Take your dog out for a walk only in the designated areas. Don’t forget to pick up after him–it is your responsibility.
- When out of the room, keep your furry friend on a leash at all times to ensure the safety of the hotel staff and guests–yes, even if your dog is extremely sociable and friendly.
- Try to prevent accidents in the hotel room by taking your furry friend out before you sleep and first thing in the morning.
