Fee for more than 1 pet

My Airbnb is pet friendly because I love pets and also to be more competitive with other Airbnbs in the area that don’t, but I found really problematic the fact that the platform doesn’t have a way to set a fee per day or at least weekly PER pet . I do not charge extra fee per person as others do but Its fair and reasonable to charge different  fee for one dog 3 days stay than for 3 dogs one month stay, I  found the extra cleaning is expensive and hard to collect afterwards. Any input?

Agree with you. Pet fees should be set at per pet/night basis. This is one of the things that Vrbo has figured out and does.

 

Some Hosts explain on their listing the pet fee is for 1 pet for a max of XXdays. If you accept more than one pet, or you want to charge a higher fee for longer stays, you will have do process the guest payment before arrival via the resolution center. You will have to make this clear on your listing and in your House Rules and be sure to stay on top of that though, as many guests won't want to pay the addl fees. I would message them after booking confirming the number of pets and explaining they will receive a request to pay via the resolution center and it must be paid before arrival.
