Known around the world as a popular tourist destination owing to its electrifying music festivals, breathtakingly beautiful natural scenery, and internationally influenced cuisines available in world-class restaurants, the capital city of Ottawa is a must-visit place in Canada. Here, you can discover the very best of Canadian culture and attractions without the crowds. For a bird’s-eye view of the city, head to the observation deck of the Peace Tower. Rideau Canal is a must-see for outdoor lovers. Architecture buffs can marvel at the beautiful stained glass creations at Notre-Dame Cathedral Basilica. However, no vacation can be complete if we have to leave our pets behind. For a comfortable and worry-free vacation, check out this list of the best pet-friendly Airbnbs in Ottawa, Canada.
We handpicked these listings carefully, considering (wherever possible) Superhost status, recent guest reviews, location, accommodation type, prices, availability of dates, decor, and pet-friendly rules and regulations.
