Pet Policy and Expectations
We’re happy to welcome your well-behaved dogs — they’re part of the family!
• NOTE: There is a $75 pet fee per stay (not per dog), which is automatically added when you select “Bringing pets” during booking. Please ensure you click on this selection. This fee covers additional cleaning and supplies.
For everyone’s comfort:
• Dogs must be house-trained and supervised at all times.
• Keep dogs off furniture and beds unless you use the protective covers (sheets/dog blankets) provided.
• Excessive barking or damage may result in additional charges.
• Our fully fenced backyard is perfect for safe play and outdoor time. For your convenience, you’ll find pet supplies in the lower-level cabinet — including extra towels, bed covers, dog bowls, cleaning supplies, and a few doggie treats (no chicken in ingredients) to make them feel right at home.
• Additionally, there is a doggie door that is closable. In the event of inclement weather, please help to keep your pets and the home clean. We simply ask that you supervise pets while outdoors, clean up after them (doggie bag dispenser and trash at side of deck), and be considerate of neighbors if your pup is feeling especially chatty.
• You must crate or use a gating system for the safety and security of your pet and our house while you are away.
• Excessive barking or damage may result in additional charges.
If you forget something for your pup, feel free to reach out — we often have extra supplies on hand and are happy to help.
