★ We allow up to 2 dogs. When checking out, if the system doesn’t charge you $100/each dog/stay, I will just send the payment request afterwards.
We charge for all dogs with one exception: papered ADA dogs trained to do a task. We cannot have dogs stay in the apartment for hours if they will bark the whole time. We have gates available. Please keep your pets off of the furniture. There's no yard, yet plenty of places to walk the dogs.
★STREET LEVEL ACCESS condo- type of home means no steps at entrance and also means there's a potential for noise from the rental upstairs. They have dogs whom have a yard and also a crated bedtime of 8-9PM. ( I can't believe it either, but it's true!)
