Several Baltimore hotels allow pets. Most hotels require a deposit or fee, and many have rules about leaving pets alone in the room. Please call the hotel and confirm its pet policy. The suburban Baltimore hotels (near Towson or BWI) have more green space, but urban areas (Inner Harbor or Fells Point) are better set up for walking.
