The pet fee is based on one low-shed pet; additional fees may apply for multiple pets, high-shed pets, or longer stays. For our feline guests, we require a litter containment system to be in use at all times. Additionally, pet owners must ensure that their pets have some means to prevent clawing of furniture.
