Planning a trip with your pet? Many of our vacation rentals welcome furry companions, making it easy to bring them along on your getaway. Here's everything you need to know about booking pet-friendly accommodations across Holidu, Booking.com, and Airbnb.

How Do I Find Pet-Friendly Stays?

Finding pet-friendly accommodations is simple and can be done in a few easy steps across all three platforms.

Holidu

You can filter your search results on Holidu in two ways:

1. During the booking process:

• Start by selecting your destination, travel dates, and number of guests
• Once the search results appear, you can refine your search by applying filters

2. Using the pet-friendly filter:

• On the left side of the search results page, look for the "Popular filters" or "Amenities" section
• Check the box for "Pets allowed"
• Your search results will then display only accommodations that welcome pets

Booking.com

There are two easy ways to filter for pet-friendly stays on Booking.com:

1. During the booking process:

• When selecting your destination, dates, and number of guests, you will find the question in the drop-down menu of the guest selection: "Travelling with pets?"
• Select this option to see only accommodations that allow pets

2. Using the search filters:

• If you didn't select "Travelling with pets?" earlier, you can still apply the "Pets allowed" filter
• Simply check this box under the "Facilities" section of the filter options on the left-hand side of the search results

Airbnb

You can filter for pet-friendly listings in two simple ways:

1. During the booking process:

• When selecting your destination, dates, and number of guests, you'll also see an option to add the number of pets travelling with you in the drop-down menu of the guest selection
• Once selected, your search results will automatically include accommodations that allow pets

2. Using the search filters:

• If you didn't enter the number of pets earlier, you can still apply a filter
• Click "Filters" in the top right corner of the search page
• In the pop-up window, check the box for "Allows pets" under the "Booking options" section
• If you previously added pets during the booking process, this filter will already be applied

What Should I Know About Pet Policies?

Each listing clearly states whether pets are allowed, along with any specific rules and regulations. The description of each accommodation provides detailed information on the respective house rules that apply.

Some hosts may have restrictions on:

• The number of pets allowed
• The size of pets
• The type of pets accepted
• Additional pet fees that may apply

Be sure to review the full property description and house rules before booking to understand all pet policies and any associated costs.

How Do I Add My Pet to My Booking?

It's important to add your pet's information during the booking process. Most properties allow you to specify your pet details in the check-in form or during the reservation setup.

For Holidu: Please make sure to add your pet's information in the check-in form. Be advised that for some properties, your pet needs to be added during the booking process to be allowed at the property.

For Booking.com and Airbnb: Add your pet information when prompted during the booking process to ensure the host is fully informed about your furry companion.

What If I Forgot to Add My Pet During Booking?

If you completed your booking but didn't add your pet during the reservation process, contact the host as soon as possible to inform them that you will be bringing a pet. This allows the host to confirm whether your pet can be accommodated and to discuss any applicable pet fees.

Getting in touch with the host promptly is the best way to ensure your pet is welcome at the property and to avoid any issues upon arrival.

Are There Additional Costs for Bringing My Pet?

Pet policies and fees vary by property. Some accommodations include pets at no extra charge, while others may charge additional fees per pet or per night.

The listing description will clearly state whether pet fees apply. Always review the complete property information before confirming your booking to understand the full cost.

Tips for Booking Pet-Friendly Accommodations

• Use the pet-friendly filters available on your chosen platform to narrow down your search
• Read the full property description and house rules to understand all pet policies
• Add your pet information during the booking process when possible
• If you have specific pet needs or questions, contact the host before booking to confirm they can accommodate your pet
• Be respectful of the property's pet rules and any restrictions on where pets are allowed within the accommodation

With these simple steps, you'll be able to find the perfect pet-friendly vacation rental and enjoy your trip with your beloved companion.
