170 Dog Friendly Apartments for Rent

Ask a New Orleans resident about Harvey and they'll probably tell you that's where they go to play slots. However, life-long residents -- of both New Orleans and the West Bank -- know Harvey is much like the slot machines: there's a treasure trove of riches to be found, if only you know where to look. While Harvey is technically a census-designated place along the West Bank in Jefferson Parish, the population of slightly more than 20,000 is more than some places that call themselves towns.

Finding an apartment in Harvey 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.
