Welcome to Roch Dog, home of the Roch Standard. We make it easy for you to cut through the pet-friendly noise and find the best dog-friendly hotels no matter where you are.
We certify hotels using a comprehensive certification process designed to gather granular and accurate information from hotels about their policies, services, amenities, facilities, and access levels. We then rank those hotels from A+ to F based on the level of their dog-friendliness so that dog owners know where to stay with their dogs and where they should avoid.
We do this so that dog owners can quickly see the best hotels in any given town, city, or country and know exactly what to expect before booking a hotel.
A Data-Driven Approach To Hotel Evaluation
We collect detailed, granular data from hotels, enabling us to build up an accurate picture of a hotel's dog-friendly position. This data enables us to conduct like-for-like comparisons using data-driven comparative analysis, ensuring each hotel is evaluated consistently. Through cluster benchmarking, we accurately assign each hotel a rank, providing a fair and balanced assessment of its dog-friendly standing relative to thousands of other hotels.
Our approach guarantees that hotels are measured objectively and provides dog owners with third-party independent reviews of hotels they can rely on when traveling with their dogs.
Because our dogs deserve better than “pet-friendly.”

Improvement
Our standard has integrity at its core; the only way a hotel can improve its rank is to change its dog-friendly position in some way to improve upon its canine-focused services, policies, facilities, or amenities.
