We do allow no more than 2 dogs up to 60 lbs. (dogs only! NO CATS!) There is a $150 fee. You must add them to your reservation. They must have a current rabies vaccination. They must be crate trained and well behaved. We provide a very large crate with bedding, dog bowls, waterproof dog blankets for them to lay on and a "soggy dog" towel for drying wet paws. They are not allowed on beds. Your fur baby must be freshly groomed and nails trimmed within a week prior to entering the house. They must not be left alone in the house, screened in porch or yard. If you need to leave them they must be safely in the crate. They are not allowed in the pool. We do have a kiddie pool that we can set up if they love water. Poop must be quickly bagged and disposed of in outside trash bin. As beautiful as the house is, it is a strange place to them.
