If your weekends revolve around your dog (as they should), this list is for you. Whether you live in Charlotte, Greensboro, or anywhere in between—these dog-friendly experiences are designed for making memories together.

1. Yoga in the Park (with Dogs!)

Cities like Charlotte and Winston-Salem offer “doga” classes or bring-your-pup outdoor yoga. It’s chill, social, and adorable.

2. Visit a Dog Boutique or Spa

Treat yourself and your dog to an afternoon of pampering. Try Four Dogs Pet Supplies (Charlotte) or Woof Gang Bakery (Greensboro) for grooming and snacks.

3. Sunset Brewery Hangouts

From Sycamore Brewing to Joymongers, plenty of NC breweries have outdoor space and dog bowls ready. Pack treats, bring a blanket, and enjoy golden hour with your pup by your side.

4. Attend a Pet-Friendly Market

Charlotte’s Front Porch Sundays and Greensboro’s Corner Farmers Market often allow leashed dogs. Markets make for relaxed social time and natural candid photo moments.

5. Book a Dog & Me Photo Session

You knew it was coming! If you're already enjoying life with your pup, let’s document it. My “pet & me” sessions are tailored to your lifestyle and can include any of the experiences above.
