Check Your Pet's Health
When camping with your pet, it's important to make sure your pet is healthy before embarking on your adventure. Many campgrounds, like Roundabout Oxford RV & Water Resort, have a pet waiver you must sign. This waiver indicates that your pet is healthy and up-to-date on all of their vaccinations. This is to ensure that our campers, staff, and all furry friends are safe at our Camp-Resort!
Pet Policies & Rules
In addition to checking your pet's health, we also recommend looking into the campground's pet rules and policies. Here at Roundabout Oxford RV & Water Resort, we have 3 major policies you should know that will help you prepare for camping with your pet.
First, if you are booking a pet friendly cabin, you must bring a crate with you. Whenever you leave your cabin and your pet is left unattended, your pet must be put in a crate. This is to ensure that all of the cabin's belonging are protected while you're away, as well as provide your pet with comfort that they are in a home they are used to.
Like most campgrounds, our Camp-Resort requires that pets be kept on a leash at all times, unless in your cabin or RV site. We encourage you to take walks around our wooded campground with your furry friend, but just make sure they are on a leash. This way, you can keep a close eye on your pet wherever you go!
Lastly, please make sure to always clean-up after your pet. Whether you're staying close to home at your cabin or campsite, or are busy exploring our Camp-Resort, it's crucial to respect nature and our fellow campers in making sure the grounds are kept clean. Pet waste containers and liners are provided throughout the resort property for your convenience.
Pet Camping Checklist
It's hard enough remembering what you need to bring for you and your family, so how do you prepare for camping with your pet? We made a list of items you should add to your camping checklist for your furry friend!
Crate/Leash: We've touched on this before, but it's important to bring a crate and leash with you when camping with your pet.
Doggie Bags: You can never bring too many! Your pet and fellow campers will thank you for it.
Food: The pets have to eat, too! Don't forget to bring pet friendly food on your camping trip so they stay healthy and energized.
Favorite Bed: Make your pet feel at home during your getaway by bringing their favorite pet bed! Whether you're camping in a pet friendly cabin or RV site, your pet will have plenty of space to roam (and sleep).
