Welcome to our Pet and family friendly home:). We know how hard it is to travel with your furry friend because we have dogs too. We welcome well behaved, non barking, potty trained pups. There are 2 dog doors for both big/small dogs to use. The backyard is fenced in all the way around and unless your dog can jump a 6 foot fence there is not any escape route that we are aware of. In the kitchen you will find a water/food bowl so you don't have to worry about bringing your own. If your pet has a cozy bed they love please feel free to bring that with you. There is also turf grass and some shaded areas for them to stay cool on those hot sunny days in the summer.
