Hobart, IN

56 Dog Friendly Apartments for Rent

In the northwest corner of Indiana sits a town locals call “Ho-bert” regardless of how it’s actually spelled. Hobart may be only 40 miles or so from Chicago—perfect for weekend road trips, by the way—but in terms of space, community and landscape, it seems a world away. Hobart isn’t just a little one-trick pony, though. While it’s home to Lake George and 21 city parks, it’s also home to a rather large shopping mall and a thriving downtown and art community. It also happens to be a nice place to find a cozy and cheap apartment. What else could you possibly need? Give us a few minutes and we’ll find you the perfect apartment rental in Hobart. See more

Finding an apartment in Hobart 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.
