When you’re booking a vacation, some amenities are essential, like having a hot tub around, coffee maker in the room, high speed wifi and let’s not forget: pet-friendly.
Our furry friends are like family and when we travel, we don’t want to leave them behind. Of course, some areas pose a bigger challenge than others for bringing pets along, so it’s often hard to find the best for our pets. However, a new study by Florida Rentals just found the best US cities for a pet-friendly vacation.
The study scored each US city by pet-friendly categories such as pet friendly hotels, price of those hotels, dog parks in the area, climate, dog-friendly activities and restaurants, pet health score and more. The blog then ranked each city from best to worst scores to find the best pet-friendly cities for vacations.
