Atlanta has an energetic yet-funky vibe that manages to combine the ambiance of gracious Southern living with the sophisticated, pulsating rhythm of an uber-modern 21st Century metropolis. Home to approximately 443,775 people, Atlantas genteel, antebellum past truly is gone with the wind after all, this is the world headquarters of those icons of modernity, Coca-Cola and CNN. Dont let the lingering vestiges of Southern hospitality fool you, however, because any city that can survive hosting the Centennial Olympic Games without losing a scrap of its southern charm is really a pretty tough cookie. Thanks to this dichotomy, North Atlanta has become a mecca for those who want to enjoy tree-lined boulevards and shady porch swings within just a few miles of one of the nation’s most exciting cosmopolitan centers.

Finding an apartment in North Atlanta 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.
