Pet Policy: One Small Dog, Clear Rules, and the $150 Weekly Fee

Pet fees and vague rules can make booking feel risky, especially when policies show up after you commit.

You want the exact policy, and the exact pet fee, before you book.

How Sandbox Beach House solves it

Here is the whole policy, as the manager, BeachRentals.Mobi, publishes it for this cottage.

  • One dog, up to 35 lb
  • Approval from the manager before you book
  • Pet fee: $150 per week, non-refundable, charged at booking
  • Excluded breeds include Pit Bull Terriers, Rottweilers, German Shepherds, Doberman Pinschers, Chow Chows, Akitas, Mastiffs, Great Danes, Huskies and Boxers
  • Only dogs are allowed as pets, and cats are never allowed
  • ADA service dogs are always welcome; emotional-support dogs pay the pet fee

The other charges, so nothing surprises you

Every booking also carries a $315 departure clean with linens, a $60 non-refundable security fee, administrative and reservation fees, and taxes. Pool heat is added to online bookings by default ($150 for a one-week stay; the office adjusts it for longer stays). You can decline it - just ask the office.

The manager's online quote itemises all of those for your dates. The $150 per week pet fee is charged at booking.
