If you're hoping to book a pet-friendly vacation rental, it's best to ask a few questions and do a bit of planning beforehand to make sure everything goes as you expect.
Does pet-friendly mean cats are welcome?
Typically, "pet-friendly" equates to "dog-friendly." Unless a listing mentions cats by name, it should not be taken for granted that felines are welcome. Because of cats' tendency to spray when they are in unfamiliar territory (and how difficult it is to remove the odor), most property owners do not allow cats.What sizes/types of pets are allowed?
You are likely to find a limit to the number and size of dogs you can bring. The average number is two and it is typical to find a size restriction mentioned such as "small" or "extra-small," so read the listing carefully before booking.Is there an extra cost?
Rental companies typically charge an additional fee or a deposit for pet-friendly rentals. Just one of the many benefits of booking through Sandbridge Blue, however, is that Fido stays free.Is everything my dog needs provided?
