Agents wanted to sell hound-friendly holidays

PetsPyjamas offers short breaks at more than 10,000 dog-welcoming hotels, cottages, B&Bs and pubs in the UK and France.

The business has around 20 home-based staff on its sales team – or Pet Partner Network – and is expanding further, hoping to attract experienced travel sellers looking to make their passion for pooches pay.

“We can only see demand increasing as more and more people in the UK get dogs, and our customers are all ages so can travel at different times of the year,” co-founder and chief executive Karen Hanton told TTG.

“The type of person who’d be right for us is a self-starter, who’s perhaps already establish themselves as a homeworker and understands that bond between a dog and its owner.

“Dogs really are part of the family and being able to help owners with dog-friendly travel options means they never have to leave them behind when they go away.”
