I have gone back and read many posts in the past about the pros and cons of being bet friendly and understand what I could be getting myself into. More and more I get phone calls about taking pets and one of my twelve rooms has its own entrance and if a dog barked, it would be hard for another room to hear it.
Against my better judgment, I am considering making that one room pet friendly. My questions are for those who are pet friendly:
1. What is your per night fee?
2. Do you run a refundable deposit before the guest arrives?
3. Is there a good contract out there for the guest to sign?
4. Do you put anything such as mats, carrier etc. in the room?
5. Anymore good advice such as dog cannot be left alone in the room?
I also just talked to John at ReservationKey (again, switching to ReservationKey was one of the best decisions I have ever made as an Innkeeper) and he told me he will add a feature on my online booking system that when a person picks my pet friendly room, they will get a check box for the # of pets and add the charges accordingly. It will also create another check box just like my normal policy one for the pet contract stating that they have read it and agree to it. This will solve part of my problem.
Thank you for anyone taking the time to help.
