For the first time, Walt Disney World welcomes dogs at four of their resorts starting on October 15.

The following resorts have been designated dog-friendly and include a per-night pet-cleaning room fee:

• Disney’s Art of Animation Resort: $50 per night
• Disney’s Port Orleans Riverside Resort: $50 per night
• Disney’s Yacht Club Resort: $75 per night
• Cabins at Disney’s Ft. Wilderness Resort: $50 per night

A maximum of two dogs per room is allowed. Each room will have easy access to pet walkways and pet relief areas.

Special touches are included for your furry friend, including:

• Pluto’s Welcome Kit is included at check-in with a mat, bowls, pet ID tag, plastic disposable bags, puppy pads, and dog walking maps. A Pluto “Do Not Disturb” door hanger lets hotel staff know a pet is staying in the room.
• Best Friends Pet Care is an on-property full-service facility for pet daycare and other needs (fees apply).
• Pet merchandise will appear soon at participating resorts.

Dogs will need to be leashed in public and properly vaccinated.
