Does AirKeeper recommend allowing pets?

Allowing pets in a rental property is entirely optional and up to the property owner's discretion. It's worth noting that making a property pet-friendly can significantly increase booking numbers and occupancy, resulting in a substantial revenue boost. Properties with fenced yards are particularly well-suited for pet-friendly accommodations. However, even in city apartments, if the property can be made pet-friendly, the listing becomes even more unique compared to regional properties, allowing for the potential to command premium rates.

It's important to establish specific rules for pet-friendly properties, such as prohibiting pets on furniture and requiring waste cleanup by pet owners. In the rare event that a pet causes damage or necessitates extra cleaning, the associated costs will be charged to the guests. Rest assured, AirKeeper ensures that rules are in place for all pet-friendly properties to maintain a comfortable and clean environment.
