How to spend a dog-friendly weekend in @visitdenver🏔️ How to get there, where to stay, hikes, breweries, a photoshoot, and a day trip to Colorado Springs. Comment DENVER and we’ll send you the full guide with everything we did 👇
How we got there: Flew Oakland to Denver with @flyretrievair and it was the calmest flight Ruby’s ever had.
You fly in and out of private FBO terminals, there’s no long TSA lines, and boarding happens back to front to keep dog crossover low. AND there’s no weight restrictions so all dogs are welcome and they can even enjoy their own seat. A true dog first experience! ✈️🐾
@flyretrievair currently flies out of 11 US cities including SF, LA, Denver, Chicago, NYC, Dallas, Seattle, DC, Atlanta, Scottsdale, and Fort Lauderdale.
Where we stayed: @populushotel_denver, America’s first carbon positive hotel. The exterior is designed to mimic aspen trees where the texture changes with the light all day.
@populushotel_denver earned a Michelin Key in 2025 and the rooftop bar might be the best view of the Denver skyline.
We stayed in the Mountain Studio Suite and enjoyed the extra spacious layout.
Pet policy: No breed or weight restrictions, up to two dogs welcome per room with $75 fee. Dogs are welcome throughout the property and at outdoor restaurant areas.
15 mins outside Denver in Morrison sits @redrocksco and the sandstone formations are even more impressive in person.
Heads up, the area closes to hikers at 2pm on concert days, which is most days in summer, so go early ⛰️
We hiked the Trading Post Trail (1.4 mi loop, our top pick, plan on 45 min to an hour) and the Morrison Slide Loop (4.1 mi, more elevation, plan on 2 to 2.5 hours if you want a real hike).
Tip: Denver sits at 5,280 ft so give your dog a day to adjust before a big hike
We did a sunset session with @tailsofvoyage out in the mountains and got some of our favorite photos of the whole trip 📸
Ellen and Julie were amazing to work with! They knew all the best photo spots in the area, gave great direction, and made us feel so comfortable.
If you’re a creator or just want photos with your dog (not the posed pet portrait kind), photos with @tailsofvoyage is w
