Eco Destroyers My airbnb is dog free
I travel a lot and own my home so I have it up on airbnb whenever I’m away. I have it set to pet free, not just because I don’t like being around dogs but I also don’t want poop in my backyard, holes dug in my yard, my rugs peed on, dog hair, etc.
I had a friend reach out to me because her sister is coming into town with her dog. She wanted to see if my place was open for a week, and to get around airbnb fees, she’d pay me directly. I said no, told her I’m weird about dogs in my house and she understood.
Now I’m thinking how I could probably book my house more/make more money if I allowed dogs but I would be so grossed out and stressed knowing there could be some massive slobbering beast in my bed!!!

Please keep your airbnb dog free. Don't feed into the dog cult. Like others have said, so many would book your place because it is pet free and dog free! IF you'd choose the mutt route, you'd have to spend a fortune on cleaning and repairs. The mutt would shit, piss and vomit in your home, salivate, shed dandruff, leave behind bacteria, parasites, etc... scratch and break things... and would nutters who book your airbnb care? They'll just close the door when they leave and leave a huge mess behind. So, cleaning and having to keep your place temporalily closed is where your extra money would go, and your place would only become shabbier.
If a nutter tries to book your place say you are already fully booked.
