Puppy’s and Pancakes
Scarbrough
Looking for a laidback coastal escape where your dog is just as welcome as you are? Say hello to Puppy’s and Pancakes, a charming OG Scarbs beach house situated beside some of Perth’s most iconic seaside restaurants, bars and walking trails. The cozy 3x1 home is perfect for solo travellers, couples or a small crew (sleeps up to six), with a spacious dog-friendly yard that’s begging for a sunset backyard catch-up or a morning brew with fresh sea air. You’re just a short stroll to stunning beaches, local cafes, swimming pools and rock climbing walls, with Scarborough Beach and Sorrento Quay only 5–7 minutes away by car. It’s easy, breezy coastal living—and yes, your pooch is 100% invited to come along for the journey.
Subi Contemporary Stay
Subiaco
This property on the Subiaco-Shenton Park border is a certified short-stay flex. With bold colour blocking, playful prints and contemporary interiors, it feels like an architecture mag come to life. Each of the four bedrooms is bright, comfy and calming (three with king beds, one with a king single for solo travellers or nap-happy toddlers). Retro meets contemporary cool girl, with lined cabinetry, a textured concrete island, and leather couches in mauve. And with everything on one level, this spot is also completely wheelchair accessible—a rare and inclusive touch in such a spacious home. The outdoors holds its own too. There’s a lush backyard with a small grassed area for dogs to roam, plus a dreamy freestanding outdoor bath for some chill moments after a long day of Subi wandering or Shenton Palk walkies.
Ralph's Place
Fremantle
Soak up Freo’s rich history from this heritage-listed apartment, welcoming you and your dog to make new memories together. Housed inside one of Fremantle’s most unique buildings, this dreamy pad is warehouse-loft meets contemporary-oasis, blending historic charm with modern comforts. With carefully curated art, layered rugs and modern lighting throughout, this stay will give some serious FOMO to anyone watching your IG stories. We’re obsessed with the private courtyard which is perfect space for your pup, and adds a laidback, fresh outdoor element to this industrial gem.
Travelling with a crew? They’ve got you covered. Just ask the hosts, and you can unlock an extra two bedrooms and a second bathroom, sleeping up to four additional guests in total comfort.
Poppy's Place River Retreat
Rossmoyne
Just a ten-minute wander from the Canning River, this beautifully styled home is all about comfort and calm. Inside, you’ll find a light-filled open-plan living space with a fenced, crackling wood fire, to keep your curious doggo warm and safe. Garden-facing bedrooms mean you can keep tabs on your furry escape artist without leaving the comfort of crisp, hotel-like sheets (the best!) The private backyard and alfresco patio with coastal accents makes an excellent spot for your morning brew or sunset wine. And your pup will love it here too—there’s a dog-friendly park right across the road and river trails just moments away. This stay is a great spot for couples or small groups after a slower pace, in a classic Aussie home-away-from-home—while still being within easy reach of the city, Freo, and Perth’s best beaches.
Good Boy Goes North
Jurien Bay
Dog lovers, prepare to be wowed by this stay—Good Boy Goes North takes dog-friendly, and turns it into literally-made-for-your-pooch. This newly renovated ’70s-style beach shack blends retro mid-century design with playful touches, like dog portraits and canine-approved decor. Colourful, retro interiors align with the ultimate puppy playground: unlimited peanut butter biccies, luxe stylised dog bowls and a toy basket that could rival your pup’s Christmas haul. Outside, there’s a fully fenced yard for zoomies and a dedicated doggy shower to rinse off post-beach sand, so you can go from fetch to couch in record time.
Heritage Home In The Heart Of The City
Perth CBD
Chasing an urban escape with your furry best mate? This cool converted warehouse set within a heritage 1899 Salvation building in the city's east end is pretty hard to beat. Spread out across three levels, the creative character-filled townhouse features your own private internal courtyard tucked away from all the action and topped with loads of falling ivy—a perfect spot for your pooch to curl up while you plan which cafes to hit on your morning walk.
Mountolive Studio
Hovea
Located between Midland and Mundaring is Mountolive Studio, a light-filled rammed earth loft, with beautiful floor to ceiling windows, timber beams and a comfy king-sized bed for you to cosy up in at night. Surrounded by native bushland, the entire property is just waiting for walkies with your very good boy or girl. There's also a massive secluded pool reminiscent of something you’d find in a theme park (minus the slides and screaming children), that both you and your pup are welcome to swim in.
Honeysuckle Cottage
Bickley
If you're chasing a getaway near Perth for you and a few fellow pet parents, Honeysuckle Cottage is an absolute stunner. We can't get over the huge wrap-around verandah and alfresco deck which looks out to enchanting views over Bickley Valley. There's also plenty of lush gardens for everyone to explore, plus you're conveniently located near some beautiful trails if you venture a bit further. Our fave part though might just be the pizza oven outside.

Suburban Cottage
Subiaco
For charming cottage vibes right on the doorstep of Subiaco’s food strip, book yourself in for a stay at this beautiful holiday home. With a gated garden terrace in the front and a spacious courtyard out the back, your four-legged friends will be spoilt for choice. If that’s not enough and you really need to stretch your legs, the entrance to Kings Park is roughly 700 metres down the road—or you could walk the opposite way and do a lap around the lake at Shenton Park, which is just over two kilometres away.
The Carriage
Mundaring
All aboard for your next escape—this century-old South Australian train carriage has been stunningly restored and transformed into one of WA’s most unique stays.
Originally part of the Barossa Valley Hotel, The Carriage is a circa-1901 gem now stationed on a peaceful 10-acre property ideal for the zoomies, and just minutes from Mundaring and a short drive to the Swan Valley. Think vintage charm meets boutique luxury, with rich timber interiors, plush furnishings and elegant details that’ll transport you straight into the golden era of travel (without ever leaving the hills). It’s private, opulent, and totally secluded.
Just a heads up: bringing your furry friend on board is by application only, so if you’re keen for a ride, they’ll need to bring their best behaviour while you apply to book.
Pier 21 Apartment Hotel
Fremantle
If you want to enjoy unbeatable views of the Swan River on your next staycay, you’re going to want to head to the luxurious Pier 21 Apartment Hotel on the sandy banks of John Street in North Fremantle. Take your furry friend for a walk through the sprawling tropical gardens or a stroll along the paths of the riverbank, then retreat to the comfort of your elegant, fully-serviced apartment or suite. Before booking in at Pier 21, just be sure to shoot them an email to let them know you’ll be bringing your pet with you.
Timpanos Farm
Coolup
Okay, it’s a bit of a trek from Perth, but Timpanos Farm in Coolup is an off-grid-reset with a twist worth driving for. This peaceful farm stay features two thoughtfully designed cabins, plus, plenty to keep grown-ups, little humans and pups of all energy levels satisfied. Kick back on the deck with a local wine, or roast meat over the open fire pit, and hit play on your very own 9-hole mini golf. We can’t guarantee your furry friend won’t try to play catch, but we can promise they’ll have plenty of room for zoomies. Perfect for the fam, the kids can run wild on the playground, basketball court or play fetch on the giant lawn.
Timpanos delivers all the wholesome countryside vibes your entire fam will love, with a side of mini golf and happy tails.
