In Moon Township, Pennsylvania, just outside Pittsburgh, sits Robert Morris University. Many have heard of the school, but Morris is not a name that gets brought up much in history class, although he almost single-handedly financed the colonists' Revolutionary War effort. Even less well-known is that Morris died practically penniless in 1806, having speculated on frontier land acquisitions that would not come to fruition until after his death.
Just south of the Ohio River sits Carnot-Moon, PA, a suburb of Pittsburgh. The community is exceptionally livable, having been named as one of the Best Places to Raise a Family by Wiley Publishing in 2007. With a population of 11,372 according to the 2010 United States Census, Carnot-Moon, PA, is a growing town, with the number of housing units available trending upward since the 1970s.

Finding an apartment in Carnot-Moon 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.
