We, Ørjan and Kine, usually live here with our two dogs when the house is not rented out. We both have our own full-time positions in different professions and have Airbnb as a passion and hobby on the side☺️ For each booking, we do our very best to prepare the house in a thorough and inviting way for our guests. This includes careful cleaning and accommodating guests' wishes as much as possible. We greatly appreciate all feedback – both criticism and praise – and hope you keep this in mind both before, during and when reviewing after your stay 😊 Note: - If you or those you bring with you are allergic to dogs, our place may not be the best place for you. We can't guarantee that the person won't react, as we have dogs ourselves and allow other pets. During the high season we live elsewhere with our four-legged friends and they will not be in the house during that period (mid-May-August) Measures taken to Minimize traces of pets (both after us and after stays with pets): - vacuumed every day with a robot vacuum cleaner. Preferably twice before a guest arrives - The robot vacuum cleaner mops and washes several times a week and always before guests arrive. - handheld vacuum cleaner in places it is difficult to get to. Before each stay - handheld vacuum cleaner on furniture and chairs. Before each stay - Vacuum regularly on furniture and carpets. Approx. 1-2 times a month. by running the robot vacuum cleaner every day + mopping several times a week, careful vacuuming.
