About

Dog-friendly is the brand, not a filter

Dog-Eared Guides builds deep visitor guides for people who travel with their dogs. Not a checkbox on a hotel search — the whole guide, written from the dog's-eye view.

Broad directories cover every city shallowly. We go the other way: one city at a time, covered deeply — the patios, trails, beaches, lodging, and local rules — with every dog policy verified against an official source and re-checked on a schedule.

Where we are today

• Charlotte, NC — our launch city
• Tahoe City, CA — our launch city

More cities are coming. Depth first, then breadth.

How we keep the lights on

The site is free to read. We earn money from display ads and from affiliate links on some bookings and activities — always disclosed, never affecting what we say about a venue's dog policy. Read the editorial policy and affiliate disclosure.
