Welcome!
Welcome to Dog Friendly Saint Pete, the ultimate guide for dog lovers seeking dog-friendly businesses and dining experiences in beautiful St Pete FL! I’m Laura, and I’m the proud creator of this blog. Alongside me is my loyal and loving Golden Retriever, Max. Together, we explore the best places in town to dine and unwind with our furry companions.
Having spent years navigating the city’s hidden gems, Max and I have developed a keen sense of what makes an establishment truly welcoming to both two-legged and four-legged patrons. Our mission is to provide you with insightful reviews and firsthand accounts, ensuring that your outings with your furry friends are always enjoyable and hassle-free. From sunny patio spots where your pup can bask in the Florida sun to quaint boutiques offering unique toys and accessories, we’ve got you covered. Whether you’re a local or just passing through, we invite you to embark on unforgettable adventures with your canine companions, creating memories that will last a lifetime.
A Passion for Dogs and St Pete
I’ve always loved exploring Saint Petersburg with my beautiful long-haired Golden Retriever, Max. From parks and beaches to cafes and restaurants, our city has a wealth of places for us to enjoy together. Even though St Pete is the most dog-friendly city in America, I realized that finding current information about these locations might be difficult, and I assumed that other pet owners were in the same boat.
That’s when the idea for this blog was born. I wanted to create a one-stop resource for St. Petersburg and Tampa Bay, showcasing not only the best dog-friendly dining spots, but also other businesses, groups, and events that cater to our canine companions. Whether you’re a local or just visiting our beautiful city, we aim to help you discover the perfect experiences for you and your furry friend.
Our Mission
Our mission here is straightforward: to celebrate and promote dog friendly businesses in our community. We believe that our four-legged friends deserve to be a part of all of our adventures, and we are working hard to create a comprehensive guide for pup owners who want to explore St. Pete with their pets by their side. From cozy cafés to upscale restaurants, we cover a wide range of establishments to cater to varying tastes and preferences.
Saint Petersburg is well-known for its vibrant arts, waterfront parks, and world-class dining, but it also has a thriving dog loving community. Our city is filled with wonderful people who recognize the importance of creating a welcoming and inclusive environment for our four-legged friends, and we are here to celebrate and promote those efforts.
While restaurants are a major focus of our blog, Max and I cover a wide variety of pup friendly activities and businesses. Max and I are dedicated to providing you with the most comprehensive and up-to-date information about St Pete’s pet friendly scene.
Our reviews and articles are designed to help you make informed decisions about where to go and what to do with your pup in Saint Petersburg. In addition to detailed reviews of restaurants, cafes, and bars, we also feature profiles of other dog friendly businesses, interviews with local pet professionals, and guides to pet friendly events and activities in St. Pete.

What Sets Us Apart
What makes us unique is our commitment to providing honest and thorough reviews of each establishment we visit. As a team, Max and I take the time to evaluate every aspect of a restaurant, from the food and service to the overall atmosphere and dog friendly accommodations. We also understand the importance of variety and inclusivity, which is why we strive to feature businesses catering to different dietary needs and preferences. If you’re local and want to search close for the best spots to bring your pup, we’re the resource for you.
Our Review Process
When evaluating a dog-friendly establishment, we pay close attention to several key factors that impact the overall dining experience for both humans and dogs. Each review on this blog is written from my perspective, with a focus on the establishment’s dog-friendliness, service, ambiance, and food or product offerings.
We understand that what works for one dog may not work for another, so we strive to provide a balanced and thorough evaluation of each establishment, considering factors such as noise level, proximity to busy streets, and availability of shade or water for dogs. By taking a comprehensive approach to our reviews, we hope to help dog owners make informed decisions about where to spend their time and money in St. Petersburg.
