Valencia West, AZ

110 Dog Friendly Apartments for Rent

Located at the southwestern edge of Tucson, Valencia West is a remote, secluded town with a lot of western charm. This is how residents get to enjoy the desert without all the crowds. Far from the skyscrapers of most of Arizona's larger cities, those seeking to get back to the old west feel of things will find themselves right at home in this area. This is definitely for those who want to get away from it all and enjoy the things that brought settlers to this region in the first place. The wild untamed desert, cool breezes on summer nights, coyotes in the distance and the land itself await those who are willing to appreciate it. Of course, this means the search for apartments will be different here than in other, larger cities. Here you're more likely to find studio apartments for rent rather than large complexes. See more

Finding an apartment in Valencia West 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.
