RVing With Pets: How to Find a Campground Your Dog Will Love.

From dog-friendly RV parks to off-leash parks, discover what to look for as you plan your next trip.

By Erin Gifford, AARP. Published October 10, 2024.

As RV travel continues to boom, campgrounds that cater to pets are becoming more important to travelers of all ages, but especially to those over 50. According to Kampgrounds of America (KOA), 58 percent of campers 50-plus bring their pets along on trips. Of those, 62 percent prioritize campgrounds with pet-friendly amenities, such as dog parks and pet wash stations.

“The pets are a member of their family,” says Kelly Self, a KOA spokesperson. “They want to get outside and make memories and share some quality time with family, including their pets.” As you plan your next RV adventure, keep these tips in mind to help you choose a campground that’s just right for you and your furry companions.
