For everyone’s comfort:
• Dogs must be house-trained and supervised at all times.

• 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 receptacle 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.
If you forget something for your pup, feel free to reach out — we often have extra supplies on hand and are happy to help.

Summary: This stay was phenomenal, especially for dogs. The pictures and description were accurate. The house and yard were clean, had fantastic extras, like cozy blankets, welcoming fall decorations, and an awesome coffee/drink station. The dogs had a great time. The yard was huge - they loved playing in it. They had so many helpful things - a towel for the dogs, dog bowls, treats, toys, etc, etc. The yard had a 6' tall privacy fence most of the way, and then a chest-high chain link fence the rest of the way. We liked the deck. It was a convenient and comfortable place to watch the dogs enjoy the yard. The host was very responsive and helpful. This is the best vacation place we've ever rented and will definitely be back!
