Northampton, PA 95 Dog Friendly Apartments for Rent

Northampton isn't a city, town, or village. So what is it? This place is actually a borough, and a smallish one at that. It spans just 2.7 square miles. You could walk the whole borough in less than an hour if you really wanted to. As far as residents are concerned, Northampton is pretty densely populated for such a small community. According to the Census, it's home to over 14,000 people. The community is tightly knit enough to have dances, holiday celebrations, and bingo night. And if a dog goes missing? That news is big enough to end up on the main page of the borough's official website. View Northampton City Guide

Finding an apartment in Northampton 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.
