How do I find dog-friendly hotels near me?

Use RuffRuff Let's Play's Pup-Friendly Spots feature, or search "dog-friendly hotels near me" and filter by pet policy. Always confirm fees, weight limits, and rules directly with the front desk before booking.

How much do hotels charge for dogs?

Pet fees range widely — from a flat $25–$75 per stay to $50+ per night at some properties. Always ask whether the fee is per stay or per night, since per-night charges add up fast.

Can I leave my dog alone in a hotel room?

Policies vary. Many hotels require dogs to be crated when left alone, and some prohibit leaving dogs unattended entirely. Confirm the rule before you book and plan accordingly.

What should I pack for a dog-friendly hotel stay?

Bring their bed or a familiar blanket, a crate if crate-trained, food and bowls, waste bags, and any medications. A long walk on arrival helps your dog settle.
