FAQ

Frequently asked questions.

Group trips

How does a group trip work?

You travel with a small group of dog lovers and their dogs, with a creator as host who travels a lot with her own dog. We arrange the accommodation, programme, reservations and activities, and your dog is welcome everywhere.

When will the group trips go online?

The first four group trips are on their way, each with its own host. Join the waiting list on the Group trips page and you will be the first to know once the destinations and dates are announced.

How do I book and pay?

When you book, you pay a deposit of 30% of the travel price. You pay the balance no later than 10 weeks before departure. If you book within 10 weeks of departure, you pay the full price straight away. The price is per person, including one dog.

When does a group trip go ahead?

A group trip goes ahead once the minimum number of participants shown on the trip page is reached. We let you know in good time whether the trip is going ahead.

Can I cancel?

You cancel by email. Up to 65 days before arrival you pay 50% of the travel price, after that 100%. That is why we recommend cancellation insurance. Everything is in our terms and conditions, which are in Dutch.

What does a group trip cost?

The price is shown per trip on the trip page, once the trip is online.

Individual trips and travel plans

What is the difference between an individual trip and a custom travel plan?

With an individual trip, we arrange and book everything for you: accommodation, transport, reservations and activities. With a custom travel plan, we do all the research, you receive a ready-made route and you book yourself.

Who is an individual trip for?

For you and your furry bestie, with your partner or with the whole family. Anything is possible: a weekend in a city, a week by the sea, a villa or a chalet.

What do you arrange for an individual trip?

We arrange the accommodation, transport, reservations for food and coffee, activities, and the guide and checklist for the destination. We are reachable during the trip.

What does an individual trip or travel plan cost?

Every trip is different, so you first receive a proposal with the price. Leave your details on the contact page and we will get in touch.

Your dog

Which dogs can come along?

Your dog is healthy, sociable with people and other dogs, and used to new surroundings and travelling. Per trip and accommodation there may be a maximum number of dogs, weight or size. This is stated in the offer.

How do I know my dog is really welcome?

We check every accommodation and every address in your trip or travel plan in advance. If we book the trip for you, we confirm with the accommodation that your dog is welcome.

Which accommodation do you choose?

We choose boutique hotels, chalets, villas and other special places where your dog is welcome, not ordinary campsites or holiday parks.

Can my dog come on the train or plane?

That depends on the carrier, the country and the size of your dog. We find out what applies to your trip and put it in the checklist.

What do I need to arrange before departure?

The basics are an EU pet passport with a valid rabies vaccination and the rules of your carrier. With your trip you get a checklist made for your exact destination and transport.

I have more than one dog. Is that possible?

Let us know in your request and we will take it into account for the accommodation and transport.

What is in the guide and checklist?

The guide lists all places at your destination where your dog is welcome: accommodation, coffee places and restaurants, beaches and walking routes, sights, local transport and a vet nearby. The checklist helps you prepare. You get both with every trip and every travel plan.

Brands

Can my brand partner with you?

Yes, on our group trips with a creator as host. Your brand travels along, is seen by the creator and her followers, and you receive photos and video of the trip. Take a look at the Brands page.

What do I receive as a brand?

Photos and video of your product on location, made during the trip, for your own website, socials and ads, plus visibility through the host.

Hosts

How many followers do I need to host?

To host a group trip, you need at least 20K followers on Instagram or TikTok.

How do I become a host?

Sign up on the Become a host page. After an introduction you fill in our intake form and we create a group trip that suits you.

Do I earn something as a host?

Yes, hosting is always a paid collab. You travel completely free with your dog and receive a fee that increases with the number of participants.
