For pet owners who travel with or without their pets, this annually updated resource is the only inclusive compilation of pet-care options. Owners will find that their travel possibilities expand with lists of hotels and motels that permit pets; American Boarding Kennel Association kennels for day-sitting or for the extended stays when pet travel is impractical; veterinary services nationwide; and fun things to do with your pet. Advice from pet trainer Matthew Margolis of NBC’s Today show and animal behaviorist Maureen Hall is included.
Too OldSeptember 28, 2008 Rascal's Mom The data in this book was too old for the newer areas we were traveling to. Many of the hotels and dog parks were not listed. They need a revised edition.
Not as PromisedApril 23, 2007 House of Chaos 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
Bought the book based on the information that a web page was available for up to date information, links, planning information etc., etc., etc. No of this is available. All the website has is a slight discription of the book. NO OTHER INFORMATION.
Ok as a ResourceJanuary 24, 2007 T. Good(Indianapolis, IN) 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
I think this book is a good place to begin, but is basically a listing of lodings that accept pets. I would prefer to see fewer listings, but places where dogs are WELCOMED, not just allowed. I just began traveling with my dog and I plan my destination on pet friendliness, rather than choose a destination and look for ok hotels. Plus, I need to know the dog-friendly activities and tourist attractions. I'm glad I bought this book because it helps begin my research, but I still am looking for more.
My Only Travel Book!May 28, 2006 evgeneia(Atlanta, GA) 6 out of 6 found this review helpful
My dog comes with me everywhere--all vacations, road trips etc...This book has been a life-saver, I can't imagine traveling without it! It not only gives a very thorough list of dog friendly accomodations, but it also lists dog friendly activities--though honestly, it's mostly about accomodations.
The information is generally accurate, but do call ahead because sometimes facilities change ownership etc...But usually, it's right on.
Thorough, with a huge amount of listings in large and small towns. Highly recommend if you travel with your pets!

This book has been very helpful with our cross country jounts. I would make a suggestion though. Not all businesses stay open or carry the same inventory. Before I drive to a place out of the way or a special trip, I call in advance to see if they are open. For the hotels/motels I make sure the rules have not changed and the prices are reasonable. This book has saved me a lot to time and trouble.
