Did you know? South El Monte was a real destination during the Gold Rush! In fact, the Thompson family came to the area to look for gold and ended up settling there in the 1860s. Today, South El Monte is a goldmine for apartments for rent, not literal gold.
South El Monte is a town of about 20,000 people, located in Los Angeles County. The city is technically a suburb of the big City of Angels, but in reality, it has a unique flavor and character. The original inhabitants of the area were the Shoshone Indians, who camped and drank water in this spot. Next came the Thompson family looking for gold. They made the area a town, and South El Monte, which officially incorporated in 1958, has grown steadily ever since. El Monte has its own attractions and amenities. And even better, it offers easy access to Los Angeles, so residents can commute for work and play in the big city, but enjoy some quiet suburban living when they decide to stay at home. See more
Finding an apartment in South El Monte 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.
