161 Dog Friendly Apartments for Rent

During the '50s Shrewsbury became a little brother to St. Louis. They introduced a shiny new transit system to replace the one that at the time was already over a century old and got themselves on the map. The nearby metropolis was huge and growing fast, as a suburb of St. Louis, Shrewsbury made the right connections - railroads - and tagged along for the ride into expansion. Placement and timing have assured a bright future for the residents and their beloved home. The bonus is it's also quiet, like you can hear birds chirping kind of quiet and there plenty of clean, fresh air. With city maintained areas like Ackfeld, Brinkop and Paul Wehner some might say life here is literally a walk in the park. See more

Finding an apartment in Shrewsbury 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.
