1. Any tenant or applicant who wishes to keep a pet shall so inform management.
2. There is a $250 refundable pet deposit per pet as well as a $25/month pet rent per pet with a 2 pet max per apartment home.
3. Common household pets shall include domesticated dogs, cats, rodents, fish, birds, and turtles kept for pleasure. No tenant shall have more than two cats or dogs.
4. The size of pets is not specifically limited. However, owners must be able to maintain control over their pets.
5. Pets shall be restrained (cats and dogs must be leashed) when on development property outside the owner’s apartment or visiting in the apartment of another resident. (If the housing manager designates a specific fenced pet walking area, pets could be unrestrained in those areas.)
6. Pet owners shall be liable for damage caused by their pets. While it is strongly suggested that pet owners obtain liability insurance, it is recognized that this is not possible for many tenants. The landlord may require of the tenant payment of a pet deposit for each dog or cat of $250.
7. Pet owners shall provide the name and address of a pet caretaker who will assume responsibility for the care of their pets should the owner be unable to, as well as the name and address of the veterinarian responsible for the pet’s healthcare. If the tenant is unable to provide the name of a pet caretaker, he/she shall make alternative arrangements for pet care in an emergency and shall notify management of these arrangements. This information will be updated annually.
