Nyack, NY

113 Dog Friendly Apartments for Rent

Nyack is located on the west side of the Hudson River, less than 20 miles north of Manhattan. Despite its proximity to the bright lights of Manhattan, this village of 6,765 (according to 2010 census data) has a very different atmosphere to the busy streets of New York City. Here you will find good schools, beautiful parks -- including the gorgeous Nyack Beach State Park -- and a whole lot of neighborly spirit. You might come to Nyack for its convenient location and fantastic transport links, but you'll stay for the numerous cultural attractions, including the house of world-famous painter Edward Hopper. Come on down -- there is a lot for you to explore! See more

Finding an apartment in Nyack 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.
