There’s nothing quite like that feeling of packing up the car and heading out for a well-deserved vacation. But if you’re a dog-owner, you know that it isn’t a real vacation unless your fur baby can tag along too. Unfortunately, not all renters agree, and it can be tricky finding gorgeous accommodations that will allow you and your pet to chill out.
That’s where Airbnb and its selection of pet-friendly rentals comes in handy. Read on to see some of the site’s most wishlisted, paw-some homes that vacationers and their pups can rent right now in Canada.
