Should you travel now, be sure to familiarize yourself with the CDC's latest guidance on domestic and international travel as well as local requirements, protocols, and restrictions for both your destination upon your arrival and your home city upon your return. Be safe out there.

Traveling with pets can be challenging. There are extra fees, the logistics of things like bathroom breaks and snack time, and the additional challenge of finding a place to stay that will accept you and your pet. Thankfully, Vrbo has created a list of seven excellent pet-friendly vacation rentals that will be welcoming for you and your animal in honor of Pet Day. (And if you don’t have a pet, this holiday is all about encouraging adoption!)

Vrbo, which offers vacation rentals worldwide, saw a 40% increase in searches for pet-friendly rentals last year. If you were one of those searchers or had maybe been putting off a trip because you didn’t want to deal with the hassle of finding a stay that would be great for you and your pet, Vrbo has done the heavy lifting. Here are the company’s top picks:

• An A-frame cabin in Idyllwild, California
• A renovated barn in Kalispell, Montana
• A cedar cabin by the sea in Long Beach, Washington
• A decked out home in Scottsdale, Arizona
• A luxury beach house in Destin, Florida
• A multi-level, ocean view paradise in York, Maine
• A cozy cabin in Pigeon Forge, Tennessee

Feeling inspired? You can find more pet-friendly homes by clicking “yes” to pets when you get the prompt on Vrbo. Do you want to take your pets on even more adventures? Check out all the bars and restaurants you can take your pup to in NYC, the safest place for your dog to sit during car rides, and all the other ways you can care for your furry friend.

And to all the pets out there eagerly awaiting their owner to take them on vacation, don’t worry! They are entering “pet-friendly vacations” into the search bar right this moment.
