Officially, New Providence is a borough, or boro, a New Jersey peculiarity. It's not the same as a borough in NYC, which indicates part of a greater whole. Instead, it's an independent municipal government with a mayor and borough council members who are all elected. It's a party over here!
There's no question that New Providence is a bedroom community since a lot of its mattresses host commuters from Manhattan. But those who don't want to travel find corporate HQs and branches in town that are always looking for top-notch employees. In addition, residents enjoy gently curving treelined streets, over a dozen recreation facilities, and nonstop shopping in the neocolonial ambiance of the Village Shopping Center. See more
Finding an apartment in New Providence 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.
