Just a reminder that Cici and I have NOT visited nor rated any of the hotels below so we cannot vouch for them and they are not rated for dogitude.
What can you do with your pooch if you CAN’T take them with you on your Spring Break trip?
DogVacay may be an option. It is a community that offers dog owners a way to travel while leaving their pooch at home with a qualified host, starting at $ 15/night.
With hosts across the U.S. and Canada, you can also bring your dog with you
on vacation and have him stay nearby if your hotel doesn’t allow pets.
HomeExchange.com, is a home exchange service that offers an alternative to high priced hotels.
You can stay in a dog friendly home with a pool, game room and an amazing kitchen.
