A
Pet Carrier or a crate is the best option during such times. Your pet can remain in the same premises as you and the guests inside the crate. This would maintain the comfort level on both the sides. It can provide them a safe place within their own retreat. Now there won't be any need to lock them up in a separate room when someone arrives as they would start barking. Also their food can be kept inside the crate and there won't be any extra hassles relating to your pet. The next reason is your camping and outings. If you are fond of camping's and outings then why not take your pet with you? It would be a great thing to have your pet riding with you. Having a pet carrier would help you keep your pet in front of eyes. The pet would be travelling in the most comfortable position and even you would enjoy their company.
