Your pet is part of the family, so why should they sit out the fun? RedBalloon experiences for pets are built with your dog, cat or other furry housemate in mind, proper experiences with pets at the centre, not squeezed in as an afterthought. Think dog friendly cruises where they can watch the view from the deck, portrait sessions that turn your pet into wall-worthy artwork, or hands-on workshops where you make something they'll actually use. Whatever the format, the point is the same: you and your pet, doing it together.
Holidaying with dogs shouldn't mean a stay at the kennel instead. 2 Nights Luxurious Pet-Friendly Glamping - Hunter Valley puts you and your dog among the vines, with proper furnishings and space to roam between wineries. It's dog friendly accommodation done well: no crate, no compromise, just a change of scenery you both get to enjoy.
Prefer somewhere quieter? A 2 Night Windellama Stay in a Peaceful Cabin puts you and your dog on a private escarpment in Windellama, NSW, with a small pet fee charged directly by the property rather than through RedBalloon.
Not every pet friendly experience means a night away. A Dog Friendly Sydney Harbour Scenic Cruise puts your dog on deck for an hour, watching the skyline slide past without a single suitcase involved. For something hands-on, a Ceramic Pet Bowl Workshop in Gold Coast has you shaping, glazing and firing your pet's next dinner bowl yourself, a keepsake they'll actually use every day.
A Perth Paint Your Pet Class for Beginners turns an afternoon into a hand-painted portrait, guided step by step even if you've never picked up a brush before. Or skip the paint and go straight to camera with a Pet Photography Shoot with $200 towards Artwork in Melbourne, a proper keepsake portrait rather than another phone photo. Either way, it's a dog friendly activity that doubles as a gift, for a birthday, a new puppy, or no reason at all.
If it's meeting new animals rather than spoiling the one you've already got, RedBalloon Animal Experiences covers wildlife encounters on land and in the water. Get close during an Animal Encounters session, spend the day at Zoos & Wildlife Parks, or head out on a Whale Watching cruise. For something a little different, Camel Riding and Farm Experiences both make for a memorable day out with animals of the four-legged, non-domestic kind, or saddle up for Horse Riding instead.
Yes, plenty of RedBalloon experiences are dog friendly, though not all of them, so check the product page for the pet friendly tag before booking. Some experiences welcome dogs of any size, others have limits on weight or number, so it pays to check the fine print. Dog Photo Shoot with Prints is one option built around your dog from the start, no guesswork required.
A pet friendly experience means your dog, cat or other pet is invited to take part, not just tolerated. That could mean a dog friendly cruise, a pet friendly stay, or a hands-on class where your pet is the whole point of the day.
Yes, dog friendly accommodation is available across a range of getaways, from glamping to cabin stays, so your dog comes with you instead of staying home with a sitter.
Plenty. A Pet Photoshoot with Prints in Melbourne takes about an hour and leaves you with printed keepsakes, no suitcase required.
Most pet friendly experiences are built around dogs, since they travel and socialise the most easily, though photography and portrait sessions typically welcome cats and other pets too. Check the specific product description before booking to be sure.
