Whether you’re a resident or a visitor from abroad, Australia is a vast country to explore. Most tourists fly to Sydney, Melbourne or Brisbane on the south-eastern coast. Covering nearly one-third of the entire country, the less beaten paths of Western Australia, including the famous red rock formations of the Outback territories, are equally interesting as well.

Along the coast, a little over four hours to the north of Perth lies Geraldton. A seemingly unassuming city, it offers exciting fishing tours, quiet beaches and a great base to explore the rest of the region. Read on for a list of the best pet- and dog-friendly accommodations in Geraldton, Australia, so that you can bring your furry friend along.

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. The image galleries get refreshed with the latest updates regularly. They were last updated on April 13, 2024.
