contents For a finitely generated group $G$ and collection of subgroups $\mathcal{P}$ we prove that the relative Dehn function of a pair $(G,\mathcal{P})$ is invariant under quasi-isometry of pairs. Along the way we show quasi-isometries of pairs preserve almost malnormality of the collection and fineness of the associated coned off Cayley graphs. We also prove that for a cocompact simply connected combinatorial $G$-$2$-complex $X$ with finite edge stabilisers, the combinatorial Dehn function is well-defined if and only if the $1$-skeleton of $X$ is fine. We also show that if $H$ is a hyperbolically embedded subgroup of a finitely presented group $G$, then the relative Dehn function of the pair $(G, H)$ is well-defined. In the appendix, it is shown that show that the Baumslag-Solitar group $\mathrm{BS}(k,l)$ has a well-defined Dehn function with respect to the cyclic subgroup generated by the stable letter if and only if neither $k$ divides $l$ nor $l$ divides $k$.
