Want to take your pet on your next Aussie holiday? RAC Pet Insurance covers 80% of vet costs for illness and injury, less any relevant excess up to $12,000 each year*. Claim online, anytime here.

In need of a Perth staycation in 2026 but don’t want to leave your furry friend behind? The City of Light is home to some of the best pet-friendly hotels and Airbnbs—some with playful pooch-friendly touches and epic backyards for afternoon zoomies.

So pack your suitcase, grab some treats (for both dog and human), and get ready for a top time the Fluffster will thank you for. Here are Urban List's picks of the best pet-friendly stays in Perth.

Palmyra | Sleeps 2

Kawa Heart Studio

Potter up the secret path to Kawa Heart Studio and you’re in for a big surprise. This adorable pet-friendly Perth Airbnb was once a glass studio that was used as a creative space for artists. It sits in a top spot close to Fremantle, in the hosts’ backyard, and has huge cathedral windows that let the outside light shine in. 

Inside your accommodation, expect vintage touches and gorgeous artwork. Outside, the Floof will enjoy exploring the rambling garden with its fenced yard to keep them safe. It should be noted that the hosts who live on the same property have their own friendly labrador who might poke her nose through the gate. Just tell them if you’d rather she kept her distance. 

The attention to detail here is second to none. You’ll find hand built ceramics by local artisans dotted around; there’s a claw-foot bath to soak in, and an aged brass waterfall shower just to make that morning wash extra luxe.

Cottesloe | Sleeps 6

Cottesloe Beach House

Imagining poolside drinks with a view of the Indian Ocean—all with your pup by your side? Cottesloe Beach House Airbnb has your Perth pet-friendly getaway well and truly sorted, offering up a plunge pool for keeping cool, while you gaze across at the sandy beach and Rottnest Island in the distance.

Your home away from home is close to the Fremantle train line, which is pretty handy, and you’ve got restaurants and bars on your doorstep for more post-dip sips. Prefer to dine back at base? There’s an outdoor deck with a dining table for family eats, plus a built-in-barbecue to cook it all up on.

North Beach | Sleeps 10

Barefoot North Beach House

Ocean breezes, your own private balcony and enough space to bring the whole gang. Barefoot North Beach House sits mere footsteps from one of Western Australia’s best beaches and marine reserves, and it’s pet-friendly so the Fluffy One can join in the fun too.

Wake to the sound of crashing waves before padding across the road to get those toes sandy (there’s a kayak you can use if you’re feeling more adventurous, plus your hosts supply beach towels, an umbrella, a beach blanket and snorkelling gear for you to use). Your morning coffee is just a stroll away, plus there’s eateries nearby for a leisurely brunch.

Back at your Perth Airbnb after an arvo of exploring, you can enjoy a quick snooze on the outdoor hammock, or take a seat in the lounge with a cuppa and take in that view. Later, we reckon it’s time for a glass of something stronger while you fire up the barbecue and prep for those group eats.

It sits in Subiaco’s most desirable area, a mere toddle from shops, parks, eateries and more. Spread out, because there are five bedrooms to choose from here, including an awesome secret one above the garage with a view of the courtyard below.

Speaking of that courtyard, it’s a great spot for some group dining (there’s a full kitchen for the nominated chef), plus inside your brick-walled home you’ll find an enticing living and dining space that’s perfect for chilling with the gang (both human and fluffy).
