Dogs love to GO! With plenty of hotels in Ontario and Rancho Cucamonga to choose from, many of them will accommodate your pet. So, there’s no reason not to bring your buddy on vacation. Hotels range from economy to full service to accommodate any budget. Most hotels offer free parking and complimentary shuttle service. Pack up the doggie toys and get ready for your adventure!

As the gateway to the Southern California experience, there’s so much to see and do in less than one hour in any direction. With nearby lakes, deserts, vineyards, or the Pacific Ocean, there’s an adventure waiting for you—from hiking, biking, fishing, and even skiing. Even the diverse restaurant scene is like an adventure in eating. And don’t forget to check out some live entertainment under the stars or headline concerts at the Toyota Arena (pets are not permitted at the Arena).
