224 Dog Friendly Apartments for Rent

Woodbridge is actually the oldest original township in New Jersey. It was named for 17th century local, the Reverend John W. Woodbridge, who settled here with a royal charter from none other than King Charles II. Confused about how a town is different than a township? So are most of us. In New Jersey, townships have a municipal government and are equal in status to a town, although generally smaller. Woodbridge, however, has a population of nearly 100 000 people, so if you were hoping for a clear explanation, there just isn't one!  See more

Finding an apartment in Woodbridge 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.
