Our Founder

Melissa Halliburton is the founder and CEO of BringFido. Shortly after rescuing her first dog, Rocco, in 2004, Melissa grew frustrated with the lack of pet policy information on hotel websites. After a year of research, in which she and her friends called every hotel in the United States, Melissa launched BringFido with the mission of making pet travel easier.

Over the past 16 years, the company has grown to include more than 500,000 places to stay, play and eat with your pooch in over 14,000 cities worldwide. In addition to launching and managing BringFido, Melissa is co-author of Ruff Guide to the United States. She has been recognized for her achievements in the travel and pet business communities, having recently been named to Pet Age magazine’s “Forty Under 40” list for 2017. Melissa lives in Greenville, SC with her husband Jason (BringFido’s Chief Operating Officer), their son Jack, and their well-traveled pups, Ace and Roxy.
