Medulla, FL

101 Dog Friendly Apartments for Rent

The population of the census-designated place (CDP) of Medulla was a little over 6,500 according to the figures from 2000. By the 2010 census, the number of inhabitants had risen to 8,892, showing that it is becoming an increasingly popular place to reside. Most of Medulla's housing was built from the 1980s-today, and is relatively modern. However, you can certainly find rental housing that dates back to the 1950s, but you are going to have to be willing to look for it. According to the U.S. Census Bureau, Medulla sits on a site that is over five-and-a-half square miles of land, only a small percentage of which is water. This may come as a surprise to many newcomers who are looking for places to rent, especially given that the CDP lies in such a close proximity to Lakeland. Nevertheless, it should be said that Scott Lake, Banana Lake, Lake Hancock, and Lake Hollingsworth are all bodies of water which are near enough for aqua-lovers to access easily. See more

Finding an apartment in Medulla 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.
