Shri Homes is a budget hostel tucked into Krishn Dev Nagar in Bhelupur, one of the quieter residential pockets of Varanasi, Uttar Pradesh, and it's one of the more straightforward pet friendly stays in Varanasi for anyone travelling with a dog or cat on a city trip. There's no extra cost for bringing your pet along, which makes it worth a look for budget-conscious pet parents exploring Varanasi.
🐾 For pet parents
Pets stay free, no extra charge, and both dogs and cats are welcome here, with small and medium dogs specifically confirmed. No breed restrictions have been confirmed by the property, so most travelling companions should be fine, though it's always worth a quick call ahead. This policy was checked directly with the property team by phone on 26 August 2026, and the details were confirmed by Divya Bakshi, so pet parents can book with confidence rather than guesswork. Anything beyond the basics, like specific in-room pet arrangements, is worth confirming with the property at the time of booking.
The Stay
As a hostel, Shri Homes fits travellers looking for a no-frills, wallet-friendly base in Varanasi rather than a luxury retreat, and its Bhelupur address puts it in a residential part of town away from the busiest ghats. For anyone road-tripping through Uttar Pradesh with a dog or cat, having a dog friendly Uttar Pradesh stop that doesn't charge extra for pets is genuinely useful.
This is the kind of place that suits an overnight or multi-night city stay rather than a quick day stop, especially for pet parents who want a low-cost option while covering Varanasi's temples and ghats with their pet in tow.
Pet Policy
Shri Homes confirms that pets stay free, with no extra charge added to the stay. Dogs and cats are both allowed, with dog sizes limited to small and medium, and no breed restrictions have been confirmed on record. Details such as which areas of the property pets can access, or whether food and bedding are provided on-site, should be confirmed directly with the property, since these specifics weren't part of the verified call. What is confirmed, and confirmed clearly, is that this is a pets allowed Varanasi stay with zero pet fee.
Why pet parents will love this place
The pet-friendly case for Shri homes
The straightforward appeal here is the free pet stay India travellers are often searching for: no pet fee, dogs and cats both welcome, and a confirmed, phone-verified policy rather than a vague listing. For pet parents watching their budget while travelling with dogs in Varanasi, that combination is hard to overlook.
