Hey there, fellow mountain lovers! We love our furry friends, and we know many of your potential guests do too! Turning your property into a dog-friendly haven can significantly boost your bookings. Think about it: comfy dog beds, enclosed yards, and maybe even a welcome basket with treats! It's all about making those tails wag!
But creating a truly perfect environment for travelers with dogs goes beyond just allowing dogs. It's about anticipating their needs (the dogs and the humans) and making them all feel welcome.
Here what we recommend to be truly dog-"friendly" and stand out among the crowd:
Comfort is Key: Provide cozy dog beds in various sizes. Consider placing them in different rooms so pups can choose their favorite spot.
Safety First: An enclosed yard is a must for many dog owners. It gives them peace of mind knowing their furry friend can roam freely. If a fully fenced yard isn't possible, consider a tie-out stake.
Welcome Wagons: A small welcome basket with dog treats, toys, and definitely a roll of waste bags is a thoughtful touch that guests (and their dogs!) will appreciate.
Doggone Good Amenities: Think about adding a water and food bowl, a dog-friendly blanket for the furniture, and maybe even designated towels for muddy paws.
There are too many "dog-friendly" cabins out there who simply allow dogs, but don't provide the experience for those dogs (really - the owners) that guests crave. So make sure you stand out. By creating a welcoming environment for dogs, you'll attract more dog-owning guests and create a truly memorable vacation experience for the whole family – furry friends included!
