Flossmoor is a place that is highly tied into the golf and country club scene. South of Chicago, the town has long been a place for quiet and upscale living outside of the city. The list of notable current and former residents of the town is long and impressive. Some of them include Buddy Guy, George Stigler, Elisabeth Kubler-Ross, Muhammad Ali, George Schultz, Xavier Fulton, and Chad Smith. Today, however, you don't have to be famous to be happy calling Flossmoor home. It would help certainly, to have an appreciation for sports, leisure and outdoor activities. But Flossmoor has lots of beautiful real estate and lovely rental houses, and anyone that likes a place with a slower pace of life than the nearby big city of Chicago will be happy calling this small town home.

Finding an apartment in Flossmoor 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.
