It is increasingly easier to find a pet friendly guesthouse. Far from being just a fad, this is a real demand, after all, we want our four-legged friends to always be present.
But, will all establishments that raise this flag are really prepared to receive and provide your pet with the affection it deserves? This article will raise some questions and help you when choosing. Good reading!
Being a pet friendly inn is more than just accepting animals
The English term “pet friendly” is an expression used to identify when an establishment not only allows the presence of domestic animals, but also makes it clear that they are very welcome to the place..
This means that, in addition to being allowed to take our furry cuties, they can have their own areas, specific activities, treats or even move freely around the environments.
It is important to keep in mind that some restrictions occur due to legislation, such as in environments where meals are eaten. Therefore, a pet friendly guesthouse usually has an exclusive area for guests who are accompanied by their pets.
Things to look out for when choosing a pet friendly hotel
Planning and searching for information is part of any trip, no matter the destination. When we are accompanied by pets it is even more important to pay attention to some details before choosing accommodation.
Travel style
Check that the destination and the activities you intend to carry out are compatible with the presence of your little friend, after all, he is also going on vacation. Do you intend to go hiking, cultural tours or shopping?
His well-being is very important, so it's good to know if the places you intend to go to are suitable and accept animals.
If it is not possible to take him, can he remain alone in the room or is there a space where the pet can stay safely? Some pets get very mischievous without supervision and can get hurt or cause damage to the room's facilities.
These are questions that end up going unnoticed, but one pet friendly guesthouse may have good solutions and make your stay much more pleasant.
Pet friendly restaurant
You will probably eat at the establishment during the period you book accommodation and will want the company of your pet.
Therefore, check with the pet friendly hotel reception if they have their own restaurant area so you can enjoy this moment together.
Restrictions
Most of the time when we talk about pets, we are talking about cats and dogs. Therefore, if you have any other type of pet, you need to ask if the establishment has any restrictions..
This also applies to the size of the animal and the quantity allowed. Some accommodations determine the criteria by weight or breed. Remember to check these things before closing the rates so you don't have any surprises on the day of check-in.
Hygiene rules and standards
Finding out about the pet friendly inn's requirements regarding hygiene rules also helps you take care of your health,that of your pet and that of other guests.
Some places usually ask for an updated vaccination card, as well as proof of use of antiparasitic and repellent products.
In any case, even if not requested, your little friend's well-being depends on this care being up to date.
Also check if there is a dedicated area for your pet's needs or for disposing of waste, after all, it is important to maintain the hygiene of the area.
Structure of the pet friendly Hotel
Try to understand what the circulation areas and the topography of the land where the inn is located are like and whether they are suitable for your needs and those of your companion.
Accommodation with stairs or balconies can pose a danger or hinder mobility if the animal has any problems with its joints or spine.
Find out which accommodations are best prepared to welcome pets.
Additional fees
Some pet friendly hotels and guesthouses usually charge an extra fee for guests with pets.
This amount can be charged daily or once for the entire period of accommodation. Therefore, try to find out in advance to avoid surprises.
Pet friendly leisure spaces
If the purpose of your trip is to have fun and relax, it's only fair that the establishment offers areas where you can spend quality time together, like a swimming pool, for example.
It is important to know the inn's pet friendly policy before staying and, if you have any questions, get in touch to clarify.
