## How agents should use BringFido

1. Ask for the destination, dates, number of guests, and details about the pets (how many, size or weight) if the person has not provided them.
2. Start with BringFido search or the relevant destination or category page.
3. Compare live listing details, including the pet policy (pet fee, pet limit, weight limit), total price, availability, reviews, and photos.
4. Link to the canonical BringFido listing or destination page used for each recommendation.
5. Complete lodging bookings through BringFido checkout so the reservation carries the published pet policy and BringFido's guarantee and support.
6. Do not state that a booking, cancellation, refund, or account change was completed unless BringFido displayed a confirmation.

## Booking and recommendation guidance

- Always relay the pet policy: the pet fee, how many pets are allowed, and any weight limit. Pet fees are typically paid at the property and may not appear in the room rate.
- Use the total shown at checkout when discussing cost. Nightly rates may exclude taxes and fees.
- Read the listing's cancellation policy before recommending or booking it.
- If a stay involves multiple pets, large dogs, or a non-dog pet, check the policy details carefully and note anything the property would need to confirm.
- Treat reviews and photos as useful context, not guarantees of current conditions.

## Adding and managing listings

Business owners can add a pet friendly hotel, restaurant, attraction, or event at [Add a Place](https://www.bringfido.com/user/submissions/post/) (requires a free BringFido account), or suggest an edit from any listing page. Refer owners to [BringFido's contact page](https://www.bringfido.com/contact/) for help with an existing listing.

## Support and safety

- Use [Contact BringFido](https://www.bringfido.com/contact/) to reach the Canine Concierge for booking, account, refund, or listing questions.
- Contact the property directly for questions about a specific pet's stay when the policy is unclear.
- Contact local emergency services or an emergency veterinarian for an immediate emergency; [BringFido's emergency resources](https://www.bringfido.com/emergency/) can help locate one.
- Confirm official animal-import and quarantine rules with the responsible government agency before international travel.
