Secondly, if you necessarily want to take your pet with you on a trip, you must inform the owner in advance. For the stay of a dog or a cat you will be charged or, if this is not possible, will be warned.
Thirdly, be sure to inform the owner of the arrival time. All the breakdowns must also be immediately warned, otherwise this will result in a tidy sum later. After the rest, it is better to work a little and bring the room into the kind that it had when you arrived, right up to the arrangement of furniture.
