15 Pet-Friendly Airbnbs in the Philippines That Are Absolutely Purr-Fect

One of the greatest pleasures of being a pet owner is playing and bonding with your pet — be it in the park, on the beach, or anywhere in the great outdoors. For travel-loving pet owners, travelling often means leaving the most loyal member of your family at home, where they can feel cooped up indoors. But what if we told you there was a way you didn’t have to leave them behind? Weekenders get their pick of pet-friendly Airbnb homes in the Philippines so four-legged friends can come on family vacations!

Of course, there are a few things to keep in mind when travelling with pets. For starters, each property has its own set of rules concerning animals. Some Airbnb rentals in the Philippines may charge extra for breakages or accidents, while other pet-friendly listings only allow small dogs into their rooms. To be safe, always message the host on Airbnb to check if your four-legged friend meets their policy. More importantly, remember to treat these vacation homes as you would your own. 

If you’re planning a road trip with your pet, go ahead to bookmark these vacation homes that cater to friendly, house-trained, and well-behaved pets. (Sorry, snake parents. Maybe next time!) Some of the hosts below are pet owners as well, which is a great sign that you’re in the right place!
