Bringing Your Pet to Hatteras Island

Because we know that pets are very important to so many of us, Midgett Realty offers a variety of Hatteras vacation rentals that allow well-behaved pets. We do ask, however, that no more than two pets stay with you in your vacation home. Also keep in mind that pets are not allowed on the grounds of any home that is not deemd "pet friendly." The property description will include any additional restrictions—for example, some owners only permit dogs at their property, not other types of pets.

To ensure that every member of your family has safe and enjoyable vacation on Hatteras Island, please be mindful of the following:

  • On Hatteras Island, dogs are allowed on the beaches year-round, if they are restrained with a leash that is 6 feet or less.
  • To ensure the continued enjoyment of our beaches, neighborhoods and homes, pet waste must be picked up and disposed of properly.
  • At no time should a pet be left alone in the vacation rental home. If it is an emergency and you must leave your pet, he/she must be placed in a crate-like container made specifically for a pet.
