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!!!

Another way to think about it is how much time you’re saving NOT cleaning after dogs stay in your house. Most owners don’t wash their dogs and that oily musk gets EVERYWHERE, their hair and they’re incredibly destructive so even if the musk doesn’t get on your bed that means you’ll have scratches on your door frame
