Pet ownership is on the rise, with 66% of U.S. households owning a pet in 2024. As a result, pet parents are rightly demanding a better world for their animal companions in which they are welcomed everywhere—in their communities, their places of work, and increasingly, on their travels.
Last year, pet travel was the subject of over 19 million Google searches in the U.S. alone, with 65% of pet parents saying they're likely to travel with their pets in the next year.

From reading reviews to ensuring a hotel understands what it means to be pet-friendly, there’s a lot of research that needs to happen before hitting the “Book Now” button.
