Oh, that old town "where the North Shore begins", Winthrop drifts to the beat of its own drum. It's hard to beat the sense of antiquity and the beauty of the location here. The whole peninsula may only occupy two square miles of land, but 17,497 folks still make their home here beside the Atlantic Ocean. It may not be paradise, but it's got it's own kind of charm. At least here you get scenery worthy of postcards. See more

Finding an apartment in Winthrop Town 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.
