Im going on vacation this week up north to a cottage (northern Michigan) and our dog is coming. We do it every year and he loves it so much he cries when we leave. With him it’s not a big hassle. The biggest issue is finding restaurants with outdoor seating that allows dogs. Everything else we do he comes like going on a boat or trails or other outdoor activities.

The cats on the other hand we believe would be too stressful for them. Last time we moved one cat spent 3 days walking around the house screaming while the other refused to leave her kennel. So they stay home and friends house visit. Not hard to find people to do that but we do have a nice hot tub lol so people love to help.
