I started Dog Days AZ as a way to bring together my love for Arizona, dogs, and community. I have owned dogs since the moment I was born. I am an Arizona Native and have spent over a decade working in many areas of the canine industry across the West/East valley. After spending the last year and a half living abroad, I came home with a new appreciation for all the unique and dog-friendly places Arizona has to offer.
I realized how special it is to have spaces where our dogs are welcome, whether it’s to cool off during the summer months, socialize with other pups, or simply to enjoy spending more time together. Through this page, I want to highlight local businesses, share hidden gems, and showcase everything that makes our state such a great place for dog lovers. At its heart, Dog Days AZ is about building connections between dog lovers across state 48 and being a resource for anyone who wants to enjoy more adventures with their best friend by their side.
