If your community allows pets, you must abide by the community’s pet policies. Please check with the office to see which pets are allowed and which are prohibited, as well as to find out about any deposits, fees, and other charges that may be associated with the privilege of having a pet in your community. If, as a result of a disability, you or an occupant in the apartment requires an assistive or service animal, please contact the leasing office.

General Requirements

If you do have a pet or assistive/service animal, it must be licensed and tagged and all inoculations must be current. If you decide to acquire a pet or need an assistive animal after your move in, contact us beforehand to make arrangements, pay the required fees, if any, and sign the appropriate lease documentation.

Your pet/assistive animal must be on a leash at all times when walking through the lobby of the building and throughout all other common areas in the building and in the community, including hallways, elevators and parking lots. You are responsible for picking up and disposing of all pet/animal waste from all common areas. Please comply with any local Sanitation and Health Department ordinance that prohibits pets in the pool area.

You are responsible for your pet/assistive animal and for any damage and injury it may cause. If, at any time, we believe your pet/animal is annoying, bothersome, a nuisance, or a threat to other residents, occupants or guests, we may require you to remove it from the community. We reserve the right to deflea, deodorize and shampoo the premises to address pet-related odors or any other damage to your apartment. If we incur costs in doing so, you will be required to reimburse us for those costs.

No Aggressive Breeds

Residents are not allowed to have dogs that are an aggressive breed, per your lease agreement. These breeds include Pit Bulls, Rottweilers, Cane Carsos or any dogs that are cross breeds of or are related to such prohibited breeds. For purposes of example only, some of the breeds that are related to Pit Bulls or Rottweilers (and therefore are prohibited) include American Staffordshire Terriers, Staffordshire Bull Terriers, Bull Terriers and American Bulldogs. English Bulldogs are not a prohibited breed under our company policy. At our discretion, you may be required to have a licensed veterinarian verify your pet/animal’s weight and breed. We may also request a photograph of your pet/animal for your resident file.

Other Pets

Fish tanks shall not exceed 40 gallons and must be properly supported. The policy described herein also applies to pets/assistive animals belonging to occupants and guests who may be visiting the community or staying with you, even on a short-term or temporary basis. Your community may have a policy that is more restrictive than the above, including a “No Pet” policy.
