Day Camp:

Dogs can burn energy and play with other friendly dogs in day camp. The camp is located within one of two 1,100 square foot rooms, each with an attached yard. All dogs are expected to pass a complimentary “interview” to make sure they are suitable for the dog camp.

Vaccinations and regular fecal checks are required for all dog campers.

Dog Park:

Directly outside of the main lobby is a fenced in 25,000 square foot dog park. Guests can walk, play, and cool off in the dog only water fountain. Additionally, there is a gated trail for on leash walking. Only dogs that are registered with Best Friends Pet Care can take advantage of the park.

As part of an ongoing pilot program, rooms at select Disney Resort hotels are now dog-friendly. Dogs must be leashed in public areas, vaccinated, and well behaved. There is an additional cost per night to use this service.

Dogs will be greeted with Pluto’s Welcome Kit which will include a mat, bowl, a pet ID tag, courtesy plastic disposable bags, puppy pads, and a dog walking map. Additionally, rooms with a dog staying in them will receive a Pluto-themed door hanger to notify hotel staff that there is a dog in the room.

The dog-friendly service is available at the following Walt Disney World resorts:

• Disney’s Yacht Club Resort
• Disney’s Port Orleans Resort – Riverside
• Disney’s Art of Animation Resort
• Cabins at Fort Wilderness Resort & Campground
