ABOUT bringing a dog: We love dogs and believe that it is possible to bring a dog and not cause any damage. We require pet deposit and a pet fee to cover the extra extensive cleaning and washing required to erase all traces. In addition we use special washable covers in our sofas (not meant for dogs to sit on but to capture any fur that lands on sofas). If you wish to bring your dog(s), please email us with details of breed and age. Thoughtful dog owners will gladly agree to:
- Have the dog groomed shortly before arrival to reduce shedding and possibility of scratching floors
- Will not leave dog alone in the house unless it stays relaxed (fearful dogs will bark continuously and scratch the door). If you feel comfortable leaving your dog alone, it must be restricted to the entrance hall and laundry area. This will save furniture from possible chewing.
- Will pick up daily if dog uses backyard (which it is welcome to roam around)
- Will not leave dog attended in backyard if there is a change of digging. If dog digs, owner repairs the damage immediately and will not leave dog unattended in backyard.
We cannot accommodate cats and :
- Dogs who are not house trained
- Puppies who are still learning to stay quiet, being house trained and tend to chew on things and furniture
- Dogs who tend to bark often even when owners are at home (we don't mind occasional barking)
- Medium and large young dogs who have a lot of energy and like to run inside the house. That is normal, however, our concern is with to keep our beautiful wood floors from being scratched.
If you are comfortable that you and your dog fulfil the above criteria please send me a note with your details.
