Ozark, AL 57 Dog Friendly Apartments for Rent

Ozark wasn't always known as Ozark. In fact, the name of the town was originally Merricks, named after John Merrick Sr., a veteran of the revolutionary war. That was in 1882. Sometime after the name was changed to Woodshop, and then in 1855, the town residents decided they didn't like the name and requested it be changed to Ozark. It's been that way ever since.

Finding an apartment in Ozark that accepts your pet may not be easy, but it’s very possible. Keep in mind, most of the time you’ll have to pay a premium for bringing your dog along in your new apartment. Some apartments require you to pay monthly pet rent, others will ask for a non-refundable pet fee or a refundable pet deposit.

While landlords and property management companies have varying pet policies, most of them limit the number of dogs you can bring to your apartment and include breed and weight restrictions.

If your pet falls under some of the restrictions outlined in the pet policy, it’s still worth asking the landlord if they can make an exception for your dog. Preparing a pet resume ahead of time could help you build the case for your furry friend. Make sure to include information on behavioral training your dog went through over the years and proof of vaccinations. If you can, include references from your former landlord and/or neighbors.
