Include Your Pet with Pet Friendly Timeshares
Great pet owners understand the value of including their furry friend in the annual family vacation. In response to the overwhelming desire of many pet owners to include their little buddy on vacation, many hotels, resorts and timeshares are now offering pet friendly accommodation. While each option has its benefits, many vacationers looking to travel with pets have found timeshares to be the most convenient and appropriate method of lodging. That's because pets tend to feel most comfortable with a certain level of familiarity. With a vacation property, owners and their pets will return to their favorite locale every year or every other year. As pets and their owners explore the area year after year, a timeshare will feel more and more like your home away from home. Pet-friendly timeshares vary in the types of accommodation and services offered, so you will want to make sure, before you buy or rent at one of these animal-accommodating properties that their offerings are up to your standards. If you are looking for properties that specialize in services like pooch pedicures and spa treatments, chances are you'll be at a higher quality, five-star type resort and you'll want to ensure you've got the budget to support your pup's expensive tastes. Other pet-friendly resorts simply offer in-room accommodation for your pet, and many such resorts should also offer doggy-daycare services. Finally, for some resorts, in particular those offered by Disney Vacation Club/DVCDisney Vacation Club/DVC, use the term pet-friendly to infer that they have on-site kennel accommodation, while pets aren't actually allowed into the rooms or common areas. Finally, you'll want to check with individual resorts about their pet-friendly policies, even if the overarching corporations have specific rules regarding animals. For example, if you buy Wyndham timeshare in Missouri that does accommodate pets, but want to travel to another location within the Wyndham network, the policies may not necessarily be consistent.
Additionally, many pet-friendly resorts will still impose restrictions on the size or breed of dog allowed at their resorts. It may not seem fair, but for insurance reasons some animals may not be allowed based solely on their pedigree. It's always a good idea to check with the individual resort each time you travel to ensure that all information is accurate and up to date.
