Tourist destinations are adopting solutions to become pet-friendly. The change is slow and uneven, and only the most advanced lodging facilities are embracing it. What are the first steps to get organized?
The "Visit Romagna" project, the first DMC promoting and advocating pet-friendly vacations at the destination level, enhances the provinces of Rimini, Ravenna, Ferrara, and Forlì Cesena. Simultaneously, in Lombardy, a pilot project by the Lombardy Region organized with Confcommercio, Federalberghi, and Acad offers a pet-friendly certification. These exemplary cases show how destinations, starting with hotels, can provide holistically for guests with pets, enhancing both sales and brand reputation.
