Our Story
TripsWithPets began more than 20 years ago with a simple idea: pet parents shouldn't have to leave their beloved companions behind when they travel. What started as a passion for making pet-friendly travel easier has grown into a trusted resource connecting people with places where they can stay and explore together.
TripsWithPets has remained true to that original mission through the years—helping pet parents find welcoming places to stay and inspiring more people to experience the joy of traveling with their pets.
Passion for Pets
Meet our Founder, Kim Salerno
My love for animals, especially dogs, has always been at the heart of everything I do. Over the years, my rescue dogs have been by my side through every chapter of my life and have inspired me to create a business that helps pet parents experience more of life with the pets they love.
That passion extends beyond travel. Through our Partners for Animal Welfare Series (PAWS), we work to support shelters and rescues, raise awareness for pets in need, and bring people and their dogs together for events that celebrate the special bond we share. Giving back to the animals who give us so much is one of the most rewarding parts of my journey.
