Short Term Rental Riches


May 31, 2022

There are times when a man’s best friend gets promoted to its highest calling, as a crucial companion for members of the community. As a service animal. Today, a lot of people rely on them to help assist with disabilities.

This higher calling however brings about a new set of rules you need to know in regards to your short-term rentals. By law, we have to make reasonable adjustments to accommodate service animals. But what about emotional support animals? (ESAs)

How do you really know the difference between a service animal, an ESA, and a pet? And how do they exactly fit in our short-term rentals? It gets tricky.

So, this week we’re busting all the common myths about service animals and vacation rentals. We will discuss:

  • What’s a “Service Animal” 
  • What’s an “Emotional Support Animal” (ESA)
  • What’s the difference??? Can you deny them?
  • The questions you can ask
  • Airbnb and Vrbo policies
  • Can you charge pet fees?
