Monfort Heights, OH

182 Dog Friendly Apartments for Rent

Rainy weather kept soggy Millcreek Valley and the area's steep hillsides around the Monfort Heights area in Green Township a rural farming area until the arrival of the streetcar in the 1900s. In 1908, the new Harrison Avenue Viaduct opened travel to Cincinnati's west side. When it was replaced by the Western Hills Viaduct in 1932, automobile drivers began to make their way west. As the population expanded, Monfort Heights was divided into the areas of Monfort Heights East and Monfort Heights South. Both Monfort neighborhoods are lovely with mature shady trees and lots of space, and both are highly desirable. See more

Finding an apartment in Monfort Heights 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.
