Take Paws The official pet travel blog of GoPetFriendly.com

GoPetFriendly.com Makeover!

We have some very exciting news here at GoPetFriendly! Just as travel season is getting into full swing, we’ve done a complete redesign of our website. Of course, we’re still the best resource on the Internet for pet friendly accommodations, detailed pet policies, and scores of activities for you to enjoy with your pet … but now our site has a fresh look and new user-friendly features!

Our new travel search engine gives you the ability to easily find pet friendly hotels, campgrounds, restaurants, activities and services. And when you complete a search, you can now view all the results on a map! A simple click will now allow you to view more detailed information or write a review of the pet friendly places you’ve visited. Plus, new features that allow you to refine your search or locate additional activities nearby make the site even more efficient.

Probably the biggest change on the site is the new hotel search page. We continue to search the most popular booking sites to get the best deals for you when you’re hunting for a hotel. But now we’ve made it even easier to spot the lowest prices and click through to the booking site to make your reservations!

Since we were remodeling anyway, we thought we’d also add our most recent blog posts right to the home page, so now you can easily keep up with us on our adventures in the Winnebago with Ty and Buster. And, we’ve made connecting with us on Twitter and Facebook even simpler by providing direct links to our pages. We hope you’ll stop by and take a look!

You may think that after completing this big project we’d be taking a break … maybe going on vacation … but that’s not the case. We have some more exciting changes that we’ll be announcing soon, so stay tuned!
