This code flags that the host (or a previous/current occupant) has a dog living on or visiting the property — distinct from the generic "pets allowed" filter, which only tells you whether you can bring your own pet. It matters for two very different groups: allergy sufeers or dog-wary guests who want to avoid a property with a resident dog, and guests who specifically enjoy staying somewhere with a friendly house dog. Airbnb's native filter doesn't separate "a dog lives here" from "pets are allowed," which is a real gap for both groups.
When you open Airbnb's search filter panel, you'll see options for basic amenities like "Wifi" and "Pool." But for more specific features like Dog(s), the filter may not appear at all — or it's buried so deep that most travellers never find it. Airbnb has assigned an internal amenity code to Dog(s) (code: 18), but their UI simply doesn't expose it.
This forces travellers into one of two bad options: read through every listing description hoping the host mentioned it, or book somewhere and discover the amenity isn't available after you arrive.
How CustomBNB Lets You Filter by Dog(s)
CustomBNB aggregates all of Airbnb's internal amenity codes — including Dog(s) (code 18) — and surfaces them through a simple, searchable interface. When you click the search button, CustomBNB generates an Airbnb URL with the amenity code appended, sending you directly to pre-filtered results on Airbnb's platform.
You're not leaving Airbnb's ecosystem — you're just arriving with your filters already set. CustomBNB requires no account to try, and takes under 30 seconds. For a deeper look at how Airbnb's hidden filter system works, read our complete guide to Airbnb's hidden amenity codes.

Tips for Booking an Airbnb with Dog(s)
Verify the Dog(s) before you commit
Airbnb amenities are self-reported by hosts. Before booking, scan the listing photos for the Dog(s), check that recent reviews mention it positively, and read the "Things to know" section for any caveats. A filter match is a starting point — not a guarantee.
Message the host to confirm if it's a dealbreaker
If Dog(s) is essential to your trip, send the host a quick message before booking to confirm it's available and in working order for your dates. Most hosts respond within a few hours. Getting it in writing also protects you if there's a dispute after check-in.
What else to look for in the listing
If you have allergies or a fear of dogs, always confirm directly with the host whether the dog is on-site during your stay and how thoroughly the property is cleaned between guests. If you're hoping for a dog-friendly stay, ask whether the resident dog interacts with guests or stays with the host elsewhere during the booking.
Frequently Asked Questions
Does Airbnb have a Dog(s) filter?
Airbnb assigns an internal amenity code to Dog(s) (code 18), but it is not shown in their standard filter UI. The code exists in Airbnb's system and hosts use it to tag their listings — guests just can't access it through the normal search panel.
How do I search for an Airbnb with a Dog(s)?
The easiest way is to use CustomBNB. Visit custombnb.app, select Dog(s) from the filter list, and click "Search Airbnb." You'll land directly on Airbnb with the Dog(s) filter already applied.
Can I combine the Dog(s) filter with other amenities?
Yes — CustomBNB lets you stack multiple amenity filters simultaneously. You can combine Dog(s) with pool, sauna, beachfront, or any of 490+ other filters to generate a single Airbnb search URL showing only listings that match every amenity you selected.
Combine Dog(s) with Other Amenity Filters
One of CustomBNB's most useful features is multi-filter stacking. Select Dog(s) alongside any other amenity and CustomBNB builds a single Airbnb URL that returns only listings matching all of them.
Popular Dog(s) combinations
For romantic getaways
Pair Dog(s) with an indoor fireplace, hot tub, or private pool for a couples' retreat. Stack all three filters in CustomBNB to find listings that have every element you need — no scrolling through pages of results that almost match.
For group and family trips
Combine Dog(s) with a game room, pool, or BBQ grill for group bookings where everyone needs something to do. Multi-filter stacking means you find the right property in one search instead of compromising on what matters most.
