We would all much rather travel and go on vacation when our pets can be with us.
And as more and more hotels, restaurants and vacationing hot spots are becoming more pet friendly, this dream is becoming more real.
Before you pack up the kibble and leashes and throw everyone in to the car, you may want to consider if your pet is good for travel.
One thing to take into consideration is your pet's health.
Stress can break down the immune system and make your already sick pet even more sick.
Even if it's just something as simple as allergies or a cold, a sickness can turn deadly fast if your pet is under too much stress.
Make sure your pet is strong, healthy and able to withstand hours in the car or plane.
Motion sickness is another issue.
No one in the car will be happy if your pet is vomiting or has diarrhea for the entire trip there and home.
If your pet is prone to car or motion sickness, talk to your vet about different medications to help this.
Before the actual trip, take your pet on an hour or so ride to test the medication.
If it doesn't work, you may want to think about getting a Frisco pet sitter instead.
And last but certainly not least - location.
Where are you going on vacation? Is it somewhere that your pet can enjoy as well? Maybe you're going to a lake where your dog can swim all day with you.
Or to a pet friendly beach.
Take a look around at different things you can do with your pet in the area you are traveling to.
Taking your pet on vacation and leaving him to sit in the hotel is not fun for him.
He'd rather be out on a walk with his Frisco pet sitter!
