Baguio Transient House Pet Friendly: Bring Your Dog for Just ₱150 More

Yes, you can bring your dog. That's the short answer most pet owners are looking for, and I'd rather lead with it than make you scroll.

The longer answer has a few details that make your stay smooth: how it works, what it costs, and why staying with your pet beats the alternatives in Baguio.

Which rooms allow pets, and why not all of them

Pets are welcome in our ground-floor rooms, which are tiled. Tile is easy to clean and easy to keep fresh after a pet stays, so those rooms handle dogs well.

The top-floor rooms have carpet, and that's a different story. Carpet holds odor and is much harder to clean properly after a pet, so I don't recommend those rooms for animals. It's not me being difficult. It's me making sure the next guest walks into a clean room and your pet has a space that actually suits them.

The ₱150 pet fee, and what it's really for

Each pet is an additional ₱150. Here's where that goes: extra cleaning and deodorizing after you check out, and paying my cleaners more for the added work.

A room that hosted a dog needs more attention than a regular turnover. The fee makes sure that deeper clean actually happens, which protects you too. You're not walking into a room that smells like the last guest's pet, and the next guest isn't walking into yours.

Small pets are the sweet spot

Most guests who bring pets bring small ones. Shih Tzus and pugs are the regulars here, and they're easy to have around.

I don't have experience hosting big dogs yet. So if you have a small pet, you're in familiar territory and everything's smooth. If you have a large breed, message me first so we can talk it through before you book rather than after you arrive.

The house rules, kept simple

A pet-friendly place only stays nice if everyone follows a few basics. Mine are short.

Put a diaper on your pet. Baguio is strict on cleanliness, and a diaper keeps the room clean and saves everyone the hassle. Bring plenty of tissue so if there's a mess you can clean it and bin it properly. And keep your pet from being too noisy, because some of our other guests come specifically to rest and want a quiet stay.

That's really it. Follow those and you and your dog are easy, welcome guests. This is the same care that goes into the personal service you get when the owner runs the place himself.

Walking your dog around Baguio

This is the part I really love, because I have pets myself. The best place to walk them is Burnham Park.

What works for me is to head out to Session Road, walk over to Burnham, and do a few rounds of the park until they're tired, then head home. That loop is the best experience for both the pet and you, and being close to it matters. Our spot is a short walk from Session and Burnham, which is exactly why it works so well for pet owners. Here's more on being 3 minutes from Session Road and what that does for your trip.

What to bring for your pet

Pack like you would for a clean, easy stay:

• Pet diapers, especially for the messy side of things. Baguio is strict and so are we.
• Plenty of tissue for quick cleanups.
• Their own food and bowls so their routine doesn't change.
• Anything that helps them settle, since a calm pet is a quiet pet.

Come prepared and you'll sleep well in a clean room with no pet problems to worry about.

Why this beats a pet hotel

Here's the comparison that surprises people. Most hotels in Baguio simply don't allow pets. The ones that do, or the dedicated pet hotels, charge ₱600 to ₱1,000 per day, and they keep your pet separate from where you're staying.

Think about that. You drive up to Baguio with your dog, then you're paying a small fortune to board them somewhere away from you, defeating the point of bringing them at all.

With us it's ₱150 extra and your pet stays right there in the room with you. It's affordable, and it's far easier for both of you. You came to Baguio together, so you should get to stay together. If your trip is a family one, the same logic applies to traveling as a family, pets included.

A few resources as you plan

If you're comparing pet-friendly options across Baguio before deciding:

• Baguio transient listings and directories to scan several places in one spot
• V.O.S. Private Villa if you'd rather have a private place with more room for your pet to move

What I promise you

Before you book, think about your pet's cleanliness. Come with diapers ready and the basics packed, and you'll have a clean room, a good night's sleep, and zero stress about your dog.

Our place is genuinely pet-friendly, not pet-tolerant. Walking around Burnham with your dog is one of the best things you'll do in Baguio, and I'd know, because I do it with mine. Message us on Facebook Messenger, tell me about your pet, and let's get you both booked.
