Citrus, CA

137 Dog Friendly Apartments for Rent

Located along I-210, also called the Foothill Freeway, it's home to over 10,800 people (per 2010 U.S. Census data) in neighborhoods on both sides of the freeway. It's all developed land and very much a part of the Los Angeles megalopolis. While there is little to distinguish Citrus from the areas around it, the community is a good place to live. Set virtually in the middle of the upper metro, it's about the same distance to Santa Monica and San Bernardino -- of course, travel time depends to a great deal on what time of day you are trying to get to either one of them! Notorious L.A. traffic aside, Citrus is convenient to Pasadena, Glendale, and Burbank as well. The Big Dalton Wash flows through town, but like most L.A. area waterways, it's a concrete-lined trickle most of the time and a torrent when it rains hard in the mountains. See more

Finding an apartment in Citrus 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.
