Quartz Hill, CA

28 Dog Friendly Apartments for Rent

Quartz Hill is a census-designated place in the eastern part of Los Angeles County. So it's not exactly within walking distance of the beach or downtown L.A. -- unless you plan to walk for an hour -- but it is near the fairly well-known cities of Lancaster and Palmdale. It is also about a half hour away from Angeles National Forest and Castaic Lake. That means if you like the idea of being a reasonable drive away from the coast, lush trees, and lots of canyons and lakes, you'll probably appreciate Quartz Hill just as much as its 10,912 residents do.

Finding an apartment in Quartz Hill 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.
