Ocean City, NJ 2 Pet Friendly Apartments for Rent

An hour away from Seaside Heights of Jersey Shore notoriety, Ocean City is one of the definitive beach communities of the Jersey Shore area. Plus its reputation is still solidly intact, which is more than we can say for some shore towns. Native Americans were the first to flock here during the summer, coming specifically in the warmer months to take advantage of the great fishing. Today there are those who are fancy enough to use "summer" as a verb and they come for the balmy beach months; and there are those who know summer is a noun and using it otherwise is pompous, and thankfully they are the ones who reside here year round. Whichever group you fit into, rest assured that this coastal enclave offers more than GTL, with the culturally rich Music Pier, one of the world's most popular boardwalks, and buses which make frequent trips to nearby Atlantic City. Even Fido has a place in Ocean City, with a dog park dedicated to the 4-legged beach bums. View Ocean City Guide

Renting pet-friendly apartments in Ocean City should offer peace of mind and convenience for our furry friends. It’s crucial to find an apartment that’ll work for both you and your pet. Before signing a pet-friendly apartment, take your time to study the layout and ask plenty of questions.

Some pet-friendly apartments in Ocean City may request a pet deposit or only accept certain dog breeds. You should also consider if the floors are hardwood or carpeted. Hardwood may be easier to clean-up fur and a mess but could mean your neighbors below hear the tapping of your dog running past. An outdoor balcony can also be ideal for a pet who needs some fresh air.

Consider the neighborhood of any pet-friendly apartments in Ocean City. Are they near a dog park or a vet? You should also research the rates of dog walkers in your area. It may be less expensive to move to a nearby neighborhood with a lower pet deposit, a better layout for your pet, and cheaper services.
