The Dog Haus near DT Pittsburgh |Pet Friendly| Self Check in!

This cozy Cape Cod home was built in the 1950's but has many more modern updates. A full quarter acre FULLY FENCED backyard gives peace of mind to parents and pet parents regarding the safety and security. The home is only 10 miles from all of Pittsburgh's main attractions! It's also located in one of the safest neighborhoods in the PGH suburbs. A fully stocked kitchen, a 70-inch smart TV, and a ready-to-work office space awaits any guests who wish to experience a true local experience!

This entire home is open to guests. While looking quaint and small on the outside, this home provides over 1200sqft of space to sit, relax, cook, and enjoy.

LIVING SPACE-
This living space has a modern farmhouse feel that is bright, cozy and inviting. There is plenty of seating for you and your guests. The television is a Smart TV with Netflix, Disney+, Hulu, Amazon Prime Movies (credentials are required for all streaming services - these are not provided), etc. The L-shaped sofa couch opens into a queen size for those with up to 8 guests on the reservation. The fireplace is for ambiance only and not for guest use. There are books and games on the bookcase in the hallway for everyone to enjoy.

BEDROOMS -
There are two current available bedrooms - a king bedroom and a queen bedroom. The king bedroom is truly made for a king, and is one of the highlights of the space. You will enjoy waking up and will fall asleep quickly on this plush soft mattress. The bed frame also holds your USB cords so no need to seek for an outlet! There is an available dresser to put clothes in as well as a small closet to hang clothes in for business or formal attire. The queen bedroom is located on the main level and has two end tables and a dresser as well as a closet for clothes storage. There are USB connections on each side of the bed for your convenience.

OFFICE -
This home office is multi-functional. This spacious room combines work and relaxation. Whether you want to relax and read a book, watch television, or need to get some work done, this space is for you. The daybed can be made into a queen bed and provides space extra space for those reservations of up to 6 people. The television is HDMI compatible and has limited cable access. Should you need to work from home while you are visiting there is room to spread out using our custom built-in desk and conduct those zoom calls. There is a printer, under the TV stand, that can be connected by wi-fi and also comes with a small supply of paper if you need to print tickets to sporting events, theater shows, or anything else.

BATHROOMS -
The home also has two FULL baths. There is no bathtub on site. All bathrooms will come with an initial supply of toilet paper. All towels are provided for the amount of guests on the reservation. This is another reason to have an accurate count of guests. Shampoo, conditioner, and body wash are provided in the main floor shower. A blow-dryer is also provided. The bathrooms also have small storage cabinets also available. The bathrooms are located in the basement and the main floor. There is no bathroom on the second floor.

KITCHEN -
There is also a full size kitchen. An added benefit of the home is that this is FULLY STOCKED. No need to buy any spices, special spatulas, or limit your cooking due to insufficient supplies. I have stocked the home with many spices - Garam Masala, Cinnamon, Garlic Salt, etc. I also provide many oils to cook with and large quantities of salt, pepper, garlic powder, steak seasoning. I also have small appliances like Air Fryer, waffle maker, KitchenAid and hand mixer, microwave, and griddle. There is a small fully stocked coffee bar equipped with a Keurig and regular coffee brewer. :)

DINING ROOM -
The dining room is equipped to hold up to 8 people. It is a very long formal table, (please no drinks without a coaster!) situated looking out on the backyard.

BACK YARD-
This space is a hit for our dog lovers. There is plenty of room for our furry friends to roam and play. The yard is fully fenced in so you can let them run safely. The patio is equipped with a gas grill with propane and a seating area for you to enjoy the great outdoors. There is a chimenea available for guest use. Please note we do not provide wood or fire starting supplies.

BASEMENT -
Last, the home has a finished basement with laundry room. This space is very cozy and sets as a movie theater with a full sectional and 70 inch smart TV with Netflix, Disney+, Hulu, Amazon Prime Movies (credentials are required for all streaming services - these are not provided), etc. The home has 240+ channels to view.

INTERNET -
The internet is through Xfinity and is the fastest bandwidth they offer, but there are wi-fi extenders on every floor to enhance this.

SECURITY SYSTEM -
The home is protected by ADT and guests will be expected to disarm the alarm before entering the home. There are security cameras outside at every entrance to the house.

The indoor fireplace, a room on the main floor (used for storage) and the garage will be off-limits for guests. For reservations with 4-6 guests, the queen daybed in the office will be prepared with bedding available for use; likewise, reservations with 6-8 guests, the sofa bed in the living room will also be prepared with bedding for guest use.

Property was nice and big enough for our group of six. If you can't handle stairs, this might not be a good fit for you.

Not as secure as advertised
The backyard is not fully secure like said and our dogs got out multiple times easily. Needs to be fixed before others stay and find their dogs missing too. Need to bring your own paper goods including paper towels and garbage bags….

Cleanliness and security
The owner was very communicative and responsive. However, the cleaner of the property is extremely incompetent. The owner did waive our cleaning fee and had the cleaner come back out but everything was still dirty. From the dishes having food on them, to our pillows being stained, everything was gross. We had to smell everything to make sure it was clean before using it. The house was in a great area and the layout is nice. You can tell the owner or some work into making it look nice but it has not been kept up on. There was a mouse in the basement and mild in one of the bedrooms. I love the owner but I would not stay there again. Also the security system didn't work. The screen wouldn't load on the main floor nor the basement and the owner couldn't get it fixed.

Stop scrolling! This is THE PERFECT SPOT.
This adorable house is the perfect spot. The attention to detail is amazing. A well stocked kitchen, so comfy beds, space to spread out, close to downtown-what else could you ask for! Check-in process was a breeze. Communication with Chelsea was superb! Will be booking again for our summer visit in the Burgh.

Perfect for family and my dog!
The Dog Haus is the place to stay in Bethel Park, PA. This house and the host are the definition of perfect! We had four kids under 10 and 3 adults stay for 4 days. There was space for everyone and the house had all of the amenities we ever needed. My dog, Andy, LOVED the yard and found plenty of places to lounge inside. The dining table is large and accommodated all of us at meal time. The dining area, surrounded by windows, looks out onto the big, grassy back yard. We felt secure in the home and even though there are plenty of windows to look outside, the layout of the property still gave us privacy. Our host was easy to communicate with and promptly answered any questions that arose. If you are looking for a place to stay in this area(especially if you want a pet friendly place), then this is where you need to stay!! Thank you for giving us a place to relax!!!!

Lil Dog Haus was great for the family!
We came in to visit family in a neighboring township. This house is exactly as pictured, both dog and kid friendly in a nice neighborhood. It’s close to shopping, restaurants, and can easily access downtown. I would rent it again!

The best little family reunion
This house was exactly what we needed to visit family in Pittsburgh! We had 7 adults stay in the house and each little family unit had their own space. There was plenty of common space for us to hang out, watch football, eat food, and play games. Chesleah was so great at communication leading up to and through our stay! If we needed anything she was there for us! The kitchen is well stocked and the house is clean, comfortable, and nicely decorated. We would absolutely stay here again!
