About a year and a half ago I wrote a quick post on how to navigate around HomeAway and VRBO to find pet-friendly vacation homes. It turns out that I should also have included FlipKey, their competitor (owned by TripAdvisor). Because I have Burgundy on my mind (and why not? gorgeousness and great food plus wine equals happy, in my book), I searched for properties there, and while I’m tempted by the 30-room pet-friendly château (call for price) just south of Beaune (call for location), my husband is more likely to go for something in an apartment, say, in Bordeaux instead.

When you arrive at the home page, type in your destination. On the page of results, there will be a sidebar on the left — check the box next to “Pet friendly.”
