Inside The Cosmopolitan’s Luxe Pet Package (and $65 Daycare Deal)
If you’re heading to Vegas with a dog in tow, The Cosmopolitan is one of the best places to stay. Unlike most Strip hotels, they welcome big dogs, don’t impose breed restrictions, and offer thoughtful extras that make traveling with a pup easy. From on-site dog runs to a luxury daycare partnership with pick-up and drop-off included, this isn’t your average pet policy — it’s a fully baked dog-friendly program. Whether you’re road-tripping with a Husky or flying in with two Frenchies, here’s exactly what to expect when staying at The Cosmo with your four-legged friend.
Dog-Friendly Rooms with No Breed or Weight Limits
Let’s start with the basics: The Cosmopolitan allows up to two dogs per room, and there’s no weight or breed restriction — which, for Vegas, is a big deal. Most hotels cap dogs at 25 or 50 pounds and make you call ahead to plead your case if your pup is pushing the limit. Not here. At the Cosmo, it doesn’t matter if you’re showing up with two Frenchies or a pair of German Shepherds — the welcome mat is out either way. You will, however, need to budget for the pet fee, which is $100 per dog, per night, plus tax. That said, they do soften the sting with a PupJoy welcome box packed with artisan treats, an eco-friendly toy, a collapsible bowl, and a pee pad. It’s a thoughtful touch and a nice indicator that dogs aren’t an afterthought here — they’re part of the experience.
On-Site Dog Runs and Where Your Pup Can’t Go
Unlike some pet-friendly hotels that leave you wandering the Strip looking for a sidewalk patch, The Cosmopolitan has two fenced-in relief areas right on property — one of them conveniently located near the Chelsea Pool. These are secure, turf-covered zones where your dog can take care of business without navigating the hustle of Las Vegas Boulevard. Just know that your pup is still restricted from certain areas. Dogs aren’t allowed on the casino floor, in restaurants, at the pool, or inside the fitness center — unless they’re credentialed service animals. And if you’re planning to leave your dog alone in the room, they’ll need to be crated for safety.
The Luxe Pet Hotels Deal You Won’t See Advertised
Here’s the real gem that most guests miss: The Cosmopolitan has a quiet partnership with Luxe Pet Hotels, one of the top-rated doggy daycares in Las Vegas. If you’re staying at the Cosmo and book through the hotel, you get access to an exclusive $65 day rate — $10 off the standard price. That includes hotel pickup and drop-off right from the valet area, so there’s no need to Uber or drive your dog across town in the desert heat. It’s turnkey, it’s luxurious, and it’s ideal if you’re planning a non-dog-friendly activity like hitting the spa, playing the tables, or seeing a show.
For that $65, your dog gets more than just a place to nap. Luxe offers full-day group play in indoor climate-controlled gyms, outdoor turf yards with splash pads and shaded cabanas, and even a mini agility course for energetic pups. They’ve got webcams so you can check in on your dog while sipping a drink at Chandelier Bar, and there’s staff onsite 24/7 — with a vet on call in case anything comes up. Pro tip: Luxe fills up fast during conventions and holiday weekends, so don’t wait until you arrive. Book your dog’s spot ahead of time, and be sure to email over vaccination records to avoid any last-minute stress.
How to Book at Pet Friendly Room at the Cosmopolitan
You don’t need to book a specific “dog-friendly” room — they’re all eligible. Once you’ve made your reservation at The Cosmopolitan, just call Luxe Pet Hotels at 702‑222‑9220 and tell them you’re a Cosmo guest. They’ll ask for proof of rabies, DHPP, and Bordetella vaccines, and get you on the schedule. When you check in to the hotel, your pup will get a quick temperament screening and you’ll sign a waiver confirming you understand the house rules. After that, you’re good to go — dog tag, gift box, and all.
