How did the idea of travelling with your pets come about? Tanveer Taj: My wife and I are outdoor buffs and would always feel bad leaving our pets behind. We started travelling with our dogs in 2015 and realised that our dogs were just happy to be around us. It is a lot more fun sharing these moments with your furry kids.

Priyanka Jena: Tanveer and I enjoy travelling together a lot. I wanted a pet to travel, see the world, and enjoy with me. Hence, it was a no-brainer that our pets go where we go.

What are some of the best pet-friendly destinations in India and why?

TT: We have covered nearly 22 states in India with our pets. Meghalaya was truly a pet friendly destination. The terrain was beautiful, and the people were friendly. We also really liked Rameswaram, and bits of Uttarakhand are also nice.

Are there any hidden gems that you discovered travelling with your dogs?
