Jet Set Pet: Loews Hotels Offers Pet Guests Passport to Wellness Program
As a result of the partnership, Banfield Pet Hospital is providing a free examination and 15% off services received for guests and their BFF (Best Furry Friend) during their stay at Loews Hotels.

“Partnering with Banfield was a no-brainer for Loews Hotels, because we share the same values,” said Nancy Mendelson, SVP Branding & Communication. “Banfield Pet Hospital offers our four-legged guests first-rate care when needed, and at the same time, provides peace of mind for their owners while traveling.”

The partnership services are available through all 16 U.S. Loews Hotels at Banfield Pet Hospitals located between 1 and 8 miles from each property. For added convenience, most Banfield hospitals are open seven days a week from 7 a.m. to 7 p.m., which accommodates both weekday and weekend travelers. To locate the nearest Banfield Pet Hospital or for assistance scheduling an appointment, guests can call the concierge desk.

“We know pets don't just get sick or injured while at home–we know accidents and illness happen even when traveling,” said Jeannine Taaffe, Senior Vice President of Sales and Marketing for Banfield Pet Hospital. “By partnership with Loews Hotels, we can help pets feel their best while on the road. In addition, our electronic medical records allow a pets' medical history to follow them wherever they go–making it easy for pet owners to travel, knowing any Banfield doctor they see will have a complete medical history on their pet, no matter what Banfield hospital they visit.”

Banfield operates more than 770 hospitals with the common goal of providing high‐quality medicine for each pet they treat and working alongside pet owners to ensure they have the resources they need to care for their pets at home.

Since the start of the Loews Loves Pets program 11 years ago, many pets have made Loews Hotels their home away from home, enjoying the special treatment and privileges that are offered at all properties. As part of the program, each visiting pet can travel in first-class comfort with gourmet room service, specialized bedding, a pet amenity and guest services designed to make pets and their owners feel right at home.
