Located on the foothills of the Ozark Mountains, Tahlequah is a charming city in Cherokee County. This city features various dog-friendly attractions. If you love hiking with your pup, challenge yourselves by taking on the moderately difficult Sparrow Hawk Primitive Area Trail, which is along the Illinois River. Prefer dog parks? The city has one as well. Tahlequah Tails Dog Park is divided into two sections: one for small pups and the other for bigger dogs. Water fountains are available so your pets can hydrate. Dining options such as Charlie’s Chicken, Sonic Drive-In, and Kroner & Baer let you bring four-legged friends with you. The city also offers accommodations that welcome four-legged family members. Scroll down to find a list of the best pet-friendly rentals in Tahlequah, Oklahoma, if you want to spend your holiday here with your furbabies.

We handpicked these listings carefully, considering (wherever possible) host status, recent guest reviews, location, accommodation type, prices, availability of dates, decor, and pet-friendly rules and regulations.
