When Is the Best Time to Visit Las Vegas With Your Dog?

Las Vegas isn’t just for people — it’s a surprisingly pet-friendly city if you know when (and where) to go. The best times to bring your pup to Vegas are during the spring (March–May) and fall (September–November). Temperatures are cooler, making it safe for outdoor walks, hikes at Red Rock Canyon, or strolls through pet-friendly spots on and off the Strip.

Top Options for Visiting Vegas With Your Dog

• Dog-Friendly Hotels – Many resorts now welcome pets, offering dog beds, treats, and even in-room dining options for pups.

• Outdoor Adventures – Red Rock Canyon and Mount Charleston trails are cooler, scenic escapes perfect for exploring with your dog.

• Local Cafés & Breweries – Vegas has a growing scene of dog-friendly patios where you can enjoy a coffee or craft beer while your pup relaxes.

• Events & Pop-Ups – From “Yappy Hours” to local markets, there are seasonal events designed with dogs in mind.
