The Best Indoor, Pet-Friendly Businesses in Cleveland
During the brisk Cleveland winters, having activities to do indoors is essential to ensure you are comfortable, and, most of all, warm. But just because you plan to move your activities indoors does not mean you have to leave your dog at home!
With that in mind, here are a few businesses local to the Cleveland area that we recommend if you’re looking to bring your furry friend along during the colder winter months!
6 Cleveland Pet-Friendly Spots You Should Check Out!
1. Brick and Barrel Brewing
Located alongside the Cuyahoga River, Brick and Barrel is a taphouse known for its house-brewed ales and wines, as well as its “beer-centric” décor. This brewery is also known for hosting a variety of events, such as food pop-ups, and, of course, Browns watch parties on Sundays.
So, if you’re looking for a place to take your furry friend and enjoy the authentic atmosphere that the west side of Cleveland has to offer, this is the place to be!

With locations scattered across the city of Cleveland, as well as neighboring northeast Ohio suburbs, Rising Star Coffee Roasters is the perfect place to take your pet and enjoy a fresh cup of joe. This local establishment’s specialty coffees include blends from South and Central America, Indonesia, and Africa, and are also available in wholesale bags if you would like to take some fresh beans back home with you!
Whether you are looking to order a quick pick-me-up while running errands, want to sit and get some work done, or need to take some time to catch up with friends, we highly recommend this Cleveland favorite!
3. Milo & Me
Leashed pups welcome! Milo & Me is a pet-friendly local business on Cleveland’s west side, and unlike other pet stores, this boutique-inspired business offers a variety of dog toys, treats, and apparel, as well as women’s clothing and accessories.

4. Van Aken District
Located on the east side of the city, the Van Aken District Indoor Winter Market in Shaker Heights is offered each Saturday from January through March. The indoor market is a great alternative for those looking to ditch the cold winter weather and indulge in the offerings of over 20 Ohio farms, bakeries, and artists. All in all, the Van Aken District is the place to visit with your pooch on a chilly Saturday morning.

What You Should Know Before Visiting Pet-Friendly Locations
Looking to take your furry friend into one of these pet-friendly establishments? Here are some things to keep in mind before doing so:
- Ensure your pet is socialized and friendly with others
- Get your furry friend up to date on their vaccinations
- Bring your own dog food and water bowl just in case
- Make sure your pet is free of any fleas and ticks
- Ask permission before your pet interacts with others
- Keep your leash on your dog at all times when indoors
It is also important to keep in mind that each business may have different indoor pet policies. If you’re ever unsure if your dog can be included as your plus one indoors, we recommend calling each place in question before visiting to make sure. If not, you can easily drop them off at our Cleveland Pet Palace location for doggy day care!
