Will I get fined for this?

Currently in an air b&b, nice house with cream carpets. Totally unbeknownst to me, at some point this evening my dog has sneaked upstairs and pissed on one of the carpets. I only noticed when I came to bed. She is fully house trained and it’s so unlike her, there are fireworks going off here and that along with the change in environment may have spooked her.

It’s late and I have limited cleaning supplies in the house so I’ve just mopped up as best I can with cloths and washing up liquid. There’s no mark but it does stink. What can I do? We are leaving tomorrow and I don’t want to leave it like that obviously. Also worried about a potential fine.

Did you tell the owner you'd be bringing an animal with you?

Yes it was part of the booking and I actually contacted the owner to double check. The place is advertised as dog friendly.

Thought Dr Beckmann had fixed it but I think there’s still a faint smell which means it’s probably gone to the underlay. We are leaving early tomorrow so not much time left to try anything else.

I don’t know why I feel so anxious about telling the owner, I guess it’s just because air b&b feels a lot more personal than other accommodation. Gah! So pissed off no pun intended.
