User Reviews
We are planning a route from Taos, NM to Palo Duro Canyon, then to Tulsa, OK. Pet Stop gave us a full itinerary of well-timed stops to let our pups do their business in safe places. Great peace of mind and will make our trip so much easier!
This app has been so helpful! I always hated having to pull over to look for a place for my dog to do her business just to find out the closest dog park is 30 minutes in the opposite direction. With this app my trip is now automatically planned out and navigated.
Makes planning a trip with my fur babies so much easier and streamlined! Plus the app is super easy to use.
This innovative fur baby friendly app is such a huge help! I don’t have to spend countless hours on searching individual parks or any dog friendly stop for my road trips anymore! 🐶♥️
I never knew how many good pet stops there were between Phoenix and Southern California! I LOVE this APP and it is so easy to navigate. It’s nice to know ahead of time where we can stop before an accident happens!
I’m obsessed with this road trip app! The ability to plan my trip around my dog based on the kind of dog-friendly stops is brilliant, and saves a ton of time. It took so much stress out of planning and kept my dog comfortable the whole way. If you travel with a fur baby, you need this app!
I’m so glad I found this app before my solo road trip with my pup. Too many times I’ve had to pull over on the side of the road to let my dog out or leave him in my truck while I grab a bite because I couldn’t find a pet friendly restaurant… The app is clean and simple, I highly recommend it!
This app has been the best thing to come out on the market!! Now, I don’t have to worry about where I can stop by for my fur babies!!
Dog parks, places to eat, and lodging? All pet friendly and on my route! I doubted it at first, but it’s so easy to use, if there’s not enough of the stops I’m looking for it will search a little further from my main route, will I drive 10 miles off route to stay in a pet friendly hotel with a nearby dog park? Yes! I love this app! No more worrying about traffic in a gas station parking lot while my dog tries to go, this app is a lifesaver!
This road trip planning app is fantastic. You can build just about any kind of trip you want with super customizable itinerary options. It’s made my life so much easier already, especially when I’m traveling with my fur babies. The app automatically finds the pet friendly stops I need, and if one doesn’t look right, swapping it out is quick and painless. If you’re a dog loving traveler, this app is absolutely worth it. 🧡
