Some furry family members may find moving to an unfamiliar place stressful, but there are ways to ease them into it with a little advance planning.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><strong>Pet-Friendly Properties<\/strong><br \/>\nLiving harmoniously with pets is a top priority for homeowners. The APPA National Pet Owners Survey by the American Pet Products Association estimates that 70% of all US households \u2013 roughly 90.5 million \u2013 owns one or more pets. That\u2019s a remarkable figure that impacts many aspects of the economy, including residential real estate. People love their pets and today\u2019s home buyers are seeking properties that reflect it. For some house hunters, finding a pet-friendly home is as simple as getting a place with a fenced-in yard, hard-surface flooring or space for a litter box. Others, however, are looking for more deluxe amenities for Fido and Fluffy.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><strong>The Pampered Pet<\/strong><br \/>\nSome pet-centric home designs cater to the four-legged family members. Today\u2019s popular custom details include under-cabinet food stations, pet washing facilities, and built-in crates, beds or pet suites. Also sought after are high-tech smart-home features like electronic pet doors and remote-access security cameras that let homeowners keep an eye on their pets when they\u2019re away.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><strong>Park, Park, Park!<\/strong><br \/>\nLocation matters to pet owners. A pet-friendly community is a must, and proximity to an off-leash dog park or long nature trail away from busy streets is a bonus. And while parents of young children often make school districts a priority, some pet parents also seek homes close to their veterinarian, boarding facility and doggy daycare.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><strong>This Way Home<\/strong><br \/>\nShow your pets the lay of the land at the new house. Determine where your pets\u2019 toys, bed and water bowl will go, then take them on a home tour to familiarize them with their designated areas. Be sure to examine the home for safety hazards, then let them poke around and discover new scents and favorite spots. Cats may feel more comfortable adjusting to one room at a time, so start them off in a smaller space and let them take their time exploring.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Adjustment periods in a new home are easy when you keep these tips in mind and stick to your pets\u2019 regular feeding and walking routines. They should barely notice the move and continue living their usual happy lives in the comfort of your new home.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/blog.coldwellbanker.com\/smart-moving-tips-for-homeowners-with-pets\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Smart Moving Tips for Homeowners with Pets<\/a> by Jennifer McGuire | CB Blue Matter<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>You may be ready to start an exciting adventure in a new home, but what about your pets?
