Resident Innkeeper Animals

Sebastian & Ghost- the Innkeeper and owners pets are often seen around the property.  Both are friendly, but Ghost will always bark his first “Hello!” towards new guests if you pass by the innkeeper’s quarters.

Pet Policies

Meander welcomes dog guests, and other animals as well. However, for the safety of all guests and pets, we ask that you observe these guidelines:

  • You must have your dog on a leash and under your control at all times for the protection of you, other guests and Meander staff. Please do not allow your dog to run freely around the property.
  • We provide fine linens in each of our rooms. While we would prefer that your dog not get on the bed and furniture, if you do allow it, please use the provided “dog” sheet to protect the linens. If one is not in your room, an innkeeper will gladly get you one. You are responsible for any damages.
  • Potty breaks should be confined to the backyard areas, away from buildings.  While we understand that “accidents” may occur in inappropriate places, please be kind enough to remove it. Pet waste bags are located in all pet friendly rooms, and pet waste stations are located throughout the property.
  • Please, no dogs in the Manor House. The guestrooms in the main house are pet-free.
  • We prefer that you take your dog with you when you are away from the Inn. If you must leave your dog for short periods in your room, please crate your dog, and inform our staff.
  • Limit barking between 9 pm – 8 am please!
  • Please do not use the inn towels for dirty paws. There are designated dog towels in the pet basket in your room. We also have a complimentary “Dog Rinse” station set up near the Barns.
  • Please be considerate of inn furnishings.
  • Limit 2 dogs per room; there are no weight restrictions.
  • There is a $25, non-refundable, pet fee per visit.
