Pet Friendly Hotels in Maryland

For many of us, pets are part of our family.  Their quirks and interesting mannerisms add so much to our lives and we couldn't imagine life without them.  There are many hotels in Maryland that welcome your pets with open arms.

When traveling with pets, their safety is paramount.  Allow your pet to get familiar with their kennel so that they are comfortable while traveling in it.  If you are driving with your pet, make sure they are safely in their crate.   Give them travel sickness pills if they are prone to motion sickness.Pets will feel more comfortable if they have a favorite toy or a familiar item in their crate.  Carry a copy of the pets medical history in case he/she gets sick and needs to see a vet.

La Quinta  in Waldorf, Maryland welcomes cats and dogs up to 50 pounds.  Sheraton , in College Park,  has  a dog welcome kit, dog beds, food and water bowls, pet friendly rooms near exits and stairs, and waste removal bags. They do, however, only allow dogs.  Savage River Lodge  in Frostburg allows pets in their cabins but not in the main lodge.
