We all dream of the fabulous trips we would take if money were no object. But in the real world, most of us have to stick to a budget. The good news? You can plan a really great trip without breaking the bank -- even if you take your four-legged kid along with you. Whether you’re traveling for work, pleasure, or a cross-country move, you can find accommodations that will leave you, your pet, and your wallet happy.
Hotels in general have become increasingly pet friendly in recent years. A number of affordable hotel chains welcome pets at all of their locations, with low or no pet fees, to boot.
Red Roof Inn
Red Roof Inn offers comfortable, reliable accommodations at over 550 convenient locations throughout the United States. The hotel is known for its customer service and focus on guest comfort, which extends to furry guests as well. It boasts spacious guest rooms, plush bedding, a desk workspace, and ample seating. Even though it’s budget-friendly, Red Roof Inn offers some great amenities, like an extended cable package and free WiFi service. Room rates start at $60 per night, and pets stay for free! One pet per room -- additional pets may be allowed at management’s discretion.
Motel 6
If you’re looking for an affordable, no-frills place to crash for the night with your pooch, Motel 6 is a reliable and convenient pet-friendly choice. The famous chain offers locations on all major travel routes across the U.S., and has the distinction of being America’s original pet-friendly hotel.

La Quinta by Wyndham
This increasingly popular hotel chain is a big hit with people, and an even bigger hit with their pets!
