According to a survey by the ASPCA, more than 23 million American households acquired a pet during the pandemic. Many pet-owners are now trying to figure out how they can travel with their pets on vacation. Lucky for them, Baymont is here to help make their travel planning experience a little less “ruff.”

“When planning a trip, there are number of things to consider. It can feel overwhelming to add a pet, particularly if it’s your first, to all of the planning. But it doesn’t have to,” stated David Unger brand manager and vice president Operations Baymont by Wyndham.

“We want travel to be easy for our furry friends. It’s why we offer no-cost perks like dog treats and water bowls at our front desks. This initiative continues those efforts and ensures that our guests, whether they are two- or four-legged, have a memorable trip .”

Amongst all the tips received, Baymont by Wyndham will select the 10 best and feature them in its upcoming pet-friendly travel planner, debuting later this year, alongside a corresponding photo of each winning pup.

In return for their assistance, proud parents will be given two nights free at Wyndham Rewards hotels of their choice, as well as a one-year Wyndham Rewards Diamond upgrade. This membership includes benefits like early checkouts, free WiFi, free suite upgrades and rental cars upgrades.

Think you’ve got what it takes to lead the pack? Parents are invited to submit their best pup-friendly travel tip in 100 words or less, as well as two high-resolution photos of their pup–one headshot and one travel-themed photo–to [email protected].
