Yes, many vacation rentals welcome pets, so you can often bring your furry companion along. Whether you book through Booking.com, Airbnb, or Holidu, you can filter for pet-friendly stays and check each listing's rules before you book.

How do I find pet-friendly stays?

Each platform lets you filter for pet-friendly listings. Choose the section that matches where you are booking.

Booking.com

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

• During the booking process: When you select your destination, dates, and number of guests, open the guest selection drop-down menu and choose "Travelling with pets?" Select this option to see only accommodations that allow pets.
• Using the search filters: If you did not select "Travelling with pets?" earlier, check the "Pets allowed" box under the "Facilities" section of the filter options on the left-hand side of the search results.

Airbnb

There are two easy ways to find pet-friendly listings on Airbnb:

• During the booking process: When you select your destination, dates, and number of guests, add the number of pets travelling with you in the guest selection drop-down menu. Your search results will then include only accommodations that allow pets.
• Using the search filters: If you did not add pets earlier, 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 added pets during the booking process, this filter is already applied.

Holidu

You can filter your search results in a few clicks:

• During the booking process: Start by selecting your destination, travel dates, and number of guests. Once the search results appear, refine them by applying filters.
• 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 results will then show only accommodations that welcome pets.

What pet rules apply to vacation rentals?

Each listing clearly states whether pets are allowed and lists any specific rules. Hosts may set restrictions on the number, size, or type of pets allowed, and additional pet fees may apply. Before you book, read the listing description and the house rules or property information so you know exactly what applies to your stay.

How do I add my pet to my booking?

On Booking.com and Airbnb, add your pet during the booking process using the options described above.

On Holidu, add your pet's details in the check-in form. For some properties, your pet must also be added during the booking process. Review the Extra Services section on the check-out page, below your personal details, to add your pet.

If the booking process fails after you add a pet, this means that no pet-friendly properties are available for your selected dates. Try different dates or a different destination.

What should I do if I did not add my pet to my booking?

If you did not add your pet to your booking, contact the host as soon as possible and let them know that a pet will be travelling with you. The host can confirm whether your pet is welcome and explain any rules or fees that apply.
