Animal Relief Areas at Washington Dulles International Airport

In accordance with federal regulations, Dulles International Airport has designated animal relief areas for service animals that accompany passengers.

 Here is a description of the animal relief area locations. All are located outdoors pre-security:

  • Outside of the Main Terminal on the east end of the Departures level. Go out the doors closest to the United Airlines ticket counter and turn right.
  • Outside of the Main Terminal on the west end of the Departures level near the walkway to Daily Garage 2.
  • Outside of the Main Terminal on the east end of the baggage claim level. Look for signs near Baggage Claim #1.

When you visit one of these areas with your service animal, please ensure that any pet waste is properly disposed of.  Containers are provided at each animal relief area for your convenience.
