Pets have become family, and more travelers are taking their furry companions along when they check into luxury hotels and resorts. To meet this growing trend, properties are looking for ways to connect with guests on a deeper, more emotional level. That’s where our new pet-themed key cards step in — a playful, stylish, and sustainable touch that instantly makes a stay feel more personal.
Crafted from eco-friendly, plant-based leather, these key cards are more than just a room key, they’re conversation starters. We offer a variety of shapes to suit your property’s style, from a long, stripe-shaped card resembling a sleek cat to a smaller layered design, where one embroidered patch sits on top of another for added texture and dimension. These can be created in the form of cats or dogs, making them the perfect nod to guests who adore their pets.
For hotels and resorts, the benefits go beyond the fun factor. Plant-based leather delivers durability and a premium feel, aligning with the sustainability values that many modern travelers care about. The unique shapes help your property stand out while giving guests a little surprise they’ll remember long after checkout. Even better, these key cards can serve as the entry point to a premium, monetizable pet-friendly experience. Handing a guest a dog-shaped key at check-in is the perfect way for your team to introduce a “VIP (Very Important Pet) Package,” complete with gourmet pet meals, grooming services, or access to an exclusive dog run.
By offering key cards that combine playful design, eco-conscious materials, and revenue-generating potential, your property not only delights guests but also strengthens its identity as a destination that cares about both people and their pets. It’s a small touch that opens the door — quite literally — to a bigger, more memorable stay.
