BringFido Helps Hotels Attract Dog Owners with Launch of PetAmenityKits.com
Leading pet travel brand unleashes dog treat delivery service to help hotels and other pet-friendly businesses get a 'leg up' on the competition.
GREENVILLE, S.C. — More dog owners than ever will be hitting the road this summer with their pets in tow, according to BringFido, the world's leading pet-friendly travel company. And with pet fees on the rise, dog owners are increasingly looking for accommodations and attractions that offer more value than a simple 'pets allowed' policy. Savvy hoteliers and restaurateurs recognize that pet-friendliness is a competitive advantage in the marketplace and are offering amenities to cater to man's best friend.
To help more hospitality businesses gain that competitive edge among pet owners, BringFido today announced the launch of PetAmenityKits.com and its Dog Treat Delivery Program, a service that ships premium dog treats to hotels, restaurants and other pet-friendly businesses for distribution to guests traveling with their pooch.
With plan pricing starting at less than $45 a month, the program is geared toward pet-friendly businesses of all sizes, not just high-end resorts and boutiques. Subscribers select either a seasonal or year-round plan and receive a monthly box of assorted, individually packaged treats, all made in the United States or Canada. As an added benefit, each treat contains a 'review us' sticker, which encourages the pet owner to rate the establishment and leave comments about their visit on BringFido.com. These reviews provide subscribers with both valuable feedback and increased visibility on the world's largest pet travel website.
“For nearly a decade, BringFido has helped dog owners find and book their perfect pet-friendly trip, and, during that time, we've witnessed explosive growth in the demand for quality, inclusive, pet-friendly accommodations and experiences,” said Melissa Halliburton, founder and president of BringFido. “We believe our Dog Treat Delivery Program is an easy, cost-effective way for pet-friendly businesses to demonstrate their commitment to welcoming Fido as a member of the family.”
