Which of our homes are pet friendly?
Updated September 2026. The local services above are a starting point. The more useful question is which house will actually take your dog, and the honest answer is: some of them, and the detail that matters is the yard rather than the policy.
- Ultimate Outdoor Oasis — Palm Springs, 3 bedrooms, sleeps 8, five minutes from downtown. Family and pet friendly, with a pool, hot tub, fire pit and hammock.
- Salida Del Sol — Desert Hot Springs, 4 bedrooms, sleeps 8, with a pet-friendly backyard, pool, hot tub and yard games. 4.86 across 445 reviews.
- Tucson Oasis — Tucson, 4 bedrooms, sleeps 8, with a fully enclosed backyard and a private pool. The enclosure is the point if you are bringing a dog.
- Brandyapple Retreat — Raleigh, 3 bedrooms, sleeps 6. A family moving across the country with dogs wrote that the safe, fenced yard made the trip possible. 4.99 across 200 reviews.
- City Lights & Rooftop Nights — San Diego, sleeps 9, family and pet friendly, steps from Balboa Park. Note there are a lot of stairs, to the first floor and again to the second.
The full list with honest notes on each house is in finding a pet friendly vacation rental. That post covers only the homes we can confirm — we would rather give you five certain answers than a dozen hopeful ones.
Message us before you book, not after
Tell us the dog: size, number, and whether they are fine being left in the house. Policies and any pet fee vary by home and we will give you the current answer for your dates rather than a general one. Booking a pet into a house that does not take pets is the single most avoidable problem in this business, and one message avoids it.
Booking direct on our site: no platform service fee, about 10 percent less on a like-for-like flexible booking, and our cancellation terms shown before you pay. See the direct booking FAQ.
Because there’s no place you’d rather be.
