Litchfield Park, AZ 199 Dog Friendly Apartments for Rent

Here's a little history you might be interested in: In 1916, The Goodyear Tire & Rubber Company bought up acres of farmland all around this area to grow long-staple cotton which was then used in tire cords. The project was developed by Paul Litchfield, a Goodyear executive, for whom the company town was named in 1926. Litchfield Park then became the headquarters for Goodyear Farms, which cultivated the cotton. In the 1960s, Litchfield Park designed a master plan for development that you can see in existence today. Located just 16 miles west of Central Phoenix, the town of Litchfield Park is today a carefully planned residential community in Maricopa County, where the living is good and the small-town atmosphere has been carefully guarded. Here, you'll find the world famous Wigwam Golf Resort & Spa, home to one of Arizona's first golf courses. View Litchfield Park City Guide

Finding an apartment in Litchfield Park 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.
