Pet-friendly holiday rentals in University District, Seattle

This place is excellent. Great neighborhood, 5 minute walk to Woodland Park Zoo and the garden. Walkable cafes. Spacious gathering area on the main floor. The kitchen was well stocked with everything we needed. Although there is no designated parking space we were always able to park within 50 feet of the front door. We only used the roof one day but the view is nice. I would definitely want to stay here again. The only complaint we could come up with is that the bath towels aren’t great and we would recommend bringing your own unless the management upgrades after this. We highly recommend staying here.

Lovely space in Ballard. Great location! We loved how walkable the area was- to restaurants, shopping, and nature! We enjoyed the fenced yard for the pups, the kitchen was well-stocked and clean. We also appreciated the desk for workspace. Sarah was responsive, very friendly, and helpful.

We absolutely loved staying at Kayla's place. We're former West Seattleites and it was great being back in our old neighborhood. From Kayla's house, it was easy to walk to Cal Ave, where we enjoyed our favorite restaurants. Her home is really comfortable and we enjoyed a rainy Seattle weekend. The sauna was an extra bonus. It was even better than we expected. We highly recommend staying at Kayla's and definitely plan to rebook when we're back in the area for a visit.

I would stay here again. It was really lovely. Very clean and very welcoming and in a great location. When we arrived we walked in to all of the lights on (even in the closets) and the music on. I can't tell you how many times I have been traveling alone and walked into a dark rental. It was really great to walk into a place lit up like this. The place was charming and well equipped and everything worked and the location was amazing. The kitchen was really lovely and the fireplace (and a/c when we needed it) was awesome! I have to say that Michael was the most responsive host I have ever experienced on AirBnB. He was proactive about sending me directions and photos showing me how to locate the place, park, open the door etc. He also sent me great neighborhood and city resources and he just responded to messages lightening fast. Anyway, we loved it and highly recommend it!

Great host, beautiful home close to everything. Swam at the lake and walked to the park. Only took 12min to get to downtown convention center. The house was so beautiful. The shower was lovely and large tubs! Adorable backyard retreat.

Our first time staying in Kirkland during our visit to Seattle. It was great. It was quieter, easier to park, really quaint downtown with lots of eating options, and yet our drives all around Seattle weren’t that long. Laura’s house was great, just like the pics. Clean, easy to park, quiet, and the deck area is super nice. Cassita was nice and private. And Laura was an excellent host - proactive and always available for questions. Thanks for a great stay!

Don’t think, just book. We stayed at Zihao’s and the pictures don’t do it justice. I would have rented it just for the view alone and every other floor was extra credit. Beds were comfortable and linens were soft and clean. The place is immaculate! This is up a fairly steep hill but so is much of Seattle. Once you walk down the hill you’re close to a grocery store, cute shops and restaurants. Using ride sharing and e-scooters was easy. Will definitely stay again!

Had a great stay here with our dog Sammie! For a studio it has a good amount of space and felt very homey. Lots of nice touches and upgrades. Really loved the shower space with a lovely frosted window featuring a beautiful forest scene. The deck is fantastic too. Nice and private with outdoor furniture for lounging and a great view of the trees below. The whole place gets wonderful natural sunlight in the morning. It also features a cool work-from-home space with monitors that we took advantage of. There are string lights on the deck which is awesome but we couldn't figure out how to turn them on and off. They seemed to be on a timer? I inquired about how they worked but didn't hear back so we just ended up unplugging them at night so they wouldn't affect our sleep. The well-manicured yard worked well for our little dog but I don't think it's fully fenced in on the side. If your pooch likes to run off, keep an eye on that. Wholly recommended!

Olga is a great host! Very responsive and helpful. Her place is beautiful and has a wonderful view. Always enjoy staying in the Newmark Building.

Peaceful, warm atmosphere with lots of space. Love the view out the living room window of the beautiful, green, forest-like backyard. Can’t wait to stay here again.

Lovely house with water views right within a quick drive of many Seattle area attractions. We had a great stay for a May wedding in the area. Allison has put a lot of thought into the house, with fun games, comfortable beds, and clear instructions for everything. Nearby Poulsbo is high on our list of recommendations.

The place was perfect for our lacrosse tourney weekend. Thanks for the great hospitality!

Very clean unit. Bathrooms and kitchen were very new and clean. Ample towels and well appointed bedrooms. Kitchen well appointed with new items. Could use some large glasses for waters and ice trays.

Our stay here was great! We ventured to Olympic National Park and explored all over the Kitsap Peninsula! We loved returning home to this little cabin each night! The outdoor space was fantastic and the extra amenities were awesome! Would absolutely recommend this place, and would stay again!

We are a family of four who spent eight fantastic nights at this property, and we absolutely loved it. Everything was exactly as described, and the location near SeaTac Airport was incredibly convenient for our early morning and late-night flights. It was also easy to explore both Seattle and Bellevue from here. The apartment complex is peaceful and well-maintained, with several pools. Cole and Ella provided clear and easy-to-follow instructions, and the Wi-Fi connection was flawless. I highly recommend this place without hesitation!

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Absolutely perfect for a first-time visit to Seattle! We couldn’t have picked a better spot for our first trip to Seattle. The location was incredible—truly walking distance to many major attractions, restaurants, and sights. We hardly needed our car at all (walked 80% of the time), but it was such a relief to have secured off-street parking (garage) available when we did need it. We also travel with our dog, and this place was perfect for that! There was a nice, pet-friendly setup with easy access to outdoor space, which made things super convenient for quick walks and exercise. The amenities were great. The rental includes use of the pool, dry sauna, workout room and rooftop viewing deck —everything was clean, well-maintained, and a nice bonus after long days of exploring the city. Highly recommend this place for anyone visiting Seattle, especially if you want walkability, parking peace of mind, and a pet-friendly environment. Would definitely stay again!

Colin and Robin were super gracious and lovely hosts! I had to spontaneously relocate for a couple of weeks locally in seattle, and they were extremely helpful from first comms to the end of the stay! It’s a rad neighborhood with a ton to do, their place gives you an opportunity to recharge and relax only a few blocks away from the action so you can get going back out into the city. Super close to bus lines, light rail, food, bars, parks, live music. Very reasonably priced and couldn’t recommend more highly!

We had a very wonderful stay .We stayed here for 3 nights . Tor was very responsive for whatever we needed. The house is very beautiful , clean and well maintained . We had a 8 month old with us and Tor and Kara were very kind enough to provide us with all the baby related amenities like bathtub, pack and play , Baby blankets and Diapers . Would definitely recommend this place .

Greenlake is one of the nicest neighborhoods in Seattle, and Dre’s townhouse is perfectly located for peaceful morning walks around the lake and easy drives to Seattle’s highlights.

We loved being near the city, but still tucked away in the trees. It was nice to have a dedicated parking spot, so we weren't always scrambling around looking for one. It was close to the Univ of WA campus (where we were touring with our teen daughter) and also close to downtown for restaurants and other sight-seeing. Our teen loved the loft bedroom, and we loved having the downstairs master bedroom. Living room was a comfy place to relax after a long day, and we played some of the provided board games and watched movies. Great location... with a nice view of the water and bridge.

Kelly was an excellent host! very communicative, friendly, and flexible with our check in/out process. The place was well furnished and cute, and was a 30 minute walk to fun places to eat in Ballard. Location was a little loud next to a main street/staircase, but earplugs were provided, which was nice!

My friends and I really enjoyed staying with Daniel! The space was so cozy and clean! Daniel was super responsive, he let us borrow some beach towels which was awesome!

This is a really beautiful place! Because we visit our son at UW pretty regularly, we stay in many AirBNBs. This one is really above and beyond! The kitchen is really well appointed, which means a lot to us because we prefer to eat in. Everything is so clean; towels are great, as are sheets, extra pillows, etc. Our only complaint is that the blinds in the bedroom do not block out light, which with extended daylight hours in the spring and summer, is a bit harsh in the morning.

Great little place. Everything you need and nothing you don't. Awesome location, close to lots of bars and even more great places to eat. Really easy to get to - right off of I-5 but was still nice and quiet. Would definitely stay here again the next time I'm in Seattle for a concert at The Neptune theatre.
