There are several pet friendly hotels in all areas of Ocean City, Maryland. Remember that you cannot have your dog on the beach or boardwalk between May 1st and September 30th. Dogs must be leashed at all times in Ocean City and Berlin. Assateague National Park’s beach allows dogs year-round, but the State park at Assateague does not allow any pets. Therefore, you will need to be sure that when you bring you dog to the beach from May 1 to September 30, you have what you need to keep your pet happy and quiet in the hotels.
Many of the restaurants in Ocean City and Berlin not only allow your dogs, but they are actually pet-friendly. The Clarion allows pets and lets you take them to the outdoor restaurant there. The Aloft has pet treats and water stations waiting for you when you arrive. Their restaurants are pet-friendly as well. Macky’s has a beach where you dog can cool down and Blacksmith in Berlin has two outdoor deck areas where you dog can comfortably wait for you to finish eating.

if a pet is zippered into a pet stroller is it ok to walk on the boards during the summer?
That’s my question also! Anyone knows?
Did you get a response? i have two small dogs and would love to know as well.
Pets are permitted on the beach or Boardwalk between October 1st and April 30th, but not permitted during the summer season. Pets are allowed in the Assateague National Seashore Park (although not on State Park beaches) year round. I saw on the Town’s site that, “No you are not. Dogs (except ADA servicce animals) are not allowed on the OC beach or boardwalk after 1 May, even in a stroller.”
That is my question also. If my dog is in a stroller can he go on the boardwalk?

My dog is more well behaved than 90% of the people that walk on the boardwalk. If people can have their kids on the beach I should be aloud to have my dog as long as he’s on a leash. I said what I said.
