Chatham was originally settled due to the very important Passaic River crossing and because it was close to a Watchung Mountains gap. The name of the town was originally John Day's Bridge, and it became Chatham in 1773.
Chatham is a small community of around 9,000 residents. Chatham has a lot of history in it, since a lot of people who lived here participated in the Revolutionary War. View Chatham City Guide
Finding an apartment in Chatham 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.
