Vacaville, California: A Dog-Friendly City

Dog owners are always faced with the dilemma about whether or not you should bring your pet while traveling. The last thing we want to do is leave our furry friends at home. Well, pack the leash and doggy bed because Vacaville is one of the most dog-friendly cities in Northern California. Here are some places for you and your furry friend to check out on your next visit.

1. Pawsh Place

Make a stop at Pawsh Place in downtown Vacaville. This veterinary clinic and boutique serves as a one-stop shop for dog owners. Here you can purchase treats made from their gourmet bakery and there’s even a play care center open 6 days for your dog to enjoy!

2. University of Beer

If the dogs could rate a place, they’d definitely rank University of Beer with 5 stars. At UOB, the kitchen cooks up a meal made just for your dog. Treat them to a hot brown rice bowl with grilled chicken, chopped peas, and carrots, with a fried egg on top as you sit on the patio enjoying a meal of your own.

As you are strolling around the city, keep an eye out for a paw sticker on the front of the business. These stickers will let you know if a venue, restaurant, or shop is pet-friendly. Be sure to check out our website for a more extensive list of pet-friendly places.
