GUIDELINES FOR BRINGING 4-LEGGED GUESTS
Dogs ONLY
2 small dogs or 1 medium dog, MAX
Our fee is $40/pet, which will be requested with your confirmed reservation.

We charge a $40.00 pet fee/pet. We hope you find this fee fair and reasonable as we take on additional responsibilities by adding furry guests to your reservation.

To ensure a smooth experience, we ask owners to bring along their dogs with the following understanding.

1. Dogs are 100% house-trained. Traveling dogs can get anxious and confused, causing accidents even for a house-trained dog.

***If your dog pees inside, this will cause a great deal of confusion for future dogs staying as they may pee on top of your dog's pee, causing upset for everyone. When arriving, please immediately introduce the yard to your dog to establish where the potty is located.***

2. Pets are well-behaved and good-natured **NO aggressive dogs allowed**
3. Pets are not left alone in the Sailor Room. Given the shared property, barking dogs will disturb other guests staying in adjacent guest rooms.
4. Owners clean up outside after their pets
5. Owners keep their pets on a leash when appropriate, as Mystic is a busy place.

Behind our property is a great field to walk your dog!

We've had wonderful experiences accommodating traveling pets! However, if your pet damages any property, we will use your security deposit to cover the cost. (though this has never happened yet:)

If you're considering bringing your dog and are fine with the pet rules/guidelines, please confirm you have read and agree to the rules in your booking message to me at the time of confirmation.

During your stay
My husband and I live in Mystic, a 5-minute drive from Old Mystic. Even though you are set up for self-check-in, you may see one of us around watering plants, taking out trash bins, etc. But rest assured, we are harmless and will respect your space and privacy. If you seek answers, would like suggestions, or even meet us, we are here for you and delight in sharing this lovely little village with visitors! We are always available by phone or text, so please reach out if you need anything!

Other things to note
