Carmel-by-the-Sea is legendary - and deservedly so - for its pet-friendly hotels, shops and restaurants. But though it may be top dog when it comes to pet-friendly offerings, it is not the only place in Monterey County that offers hospitality to four-legged friends as well as their owners. Carmel Valley, Pacific Grove, Salinas, Big Sur, Marina, Seaside, Soledad and even tiny Moss Landing are all the cat's meow, with hotels, restaurants, wine tasting rooms and more that welcome the furry member of your family. Use the list below, segmented out both by city and by type of establishment, to plan your pet-friendly Monterey vacation.

Don't forget Carmel Beach, where the locals go to walk their dogs.
In addition to the many pet-friendly properties in Carmel Valley, Garland Ranch Regional Park has many off-leash areas for visitors to hike with their dogs.
