Pet-Friendly Hotel Locations

When traveling with your favorite furry companion to Canada, you’ll need to know where to go. After all, with so much land to cover, you’ll want to explore the most welcoming cities for canines, the best paw-worthy restaurants, and the top pet-friendly hotels in Canada. Luckily, this country is full of pup-loving public spaces and national parks, bark-friendly bistros, and seemingly endless scents to sniff. So, whether you’re discovering the snowy peaks of Whistler or drinking in stunning scenery in Banff, strolling through Toronto, or summering in Montreal, you’ll have plenty of things to do with your pooch all trip long. In Canada, well-behaved dogs are welcome in most public places and even on walking tours in the country’s most iconic cities. Don’t miss a beat and check out these top things to do and see with your fur baby.

When touring around the country from the best Canadian pet-friendly hotels, Banff should be high on the list to visit. Just outside the city of Calgary, this naturescape is not only one of the most stunning areas of the country, but it's also incredibly welcoming to our waggy-tailed friends. Head to the striking Banff National Park for endless trails, stunning views of Lake Louise, and all the dog-friendly activities you’d want while away. Remember to keep your pooch leashed on all trails and public areas, and make sure you clean up after your pup to safeguard the incredible wildlife within the park.

One city you can’t skip while booking your next Canadian hotel for pets is Montréal, Quebec. As one of the most dog-friendly cities in the country, you’ll find endless ways to spend the day with the doggo. With six awesome dog-friendly hiking trails in Montréal, you’ll have an array of outdoor spaces to discover all trip long. Hike out some energy from Mount Royal Park, which features a beautiful trail just outside the city and boasts a breathtaking skyline view from the summit. This 5.2-mile loop trail includes a mix of dirt paths and stairs, and requires roughly a mile climb to the top. Carve out about an hour for the hike up, then some R&R at the top drinking in the views, and about 45 minutes for the descent.

A haven for adventure enthusiasts, lovers of the outdoors, and adrenaline junkies, Whistler, British Columbia, is the place to be (for both you and your pet!). Head to the striking Rainbow Park, which allows dogs off-leash before 10 am and after 8 pm daily. Bring your furry friend along and let them roam free from the “Barking Bay'' beach area for dogs or at the park’s gated, designated off-leash area, which is available for the pooches 24/7. It's an incredible spot to stop and spend the afternoon enjoying the water, letting the zoomies out, and soaking up some sun with the entire family.
