"There's a reason [the U.S. Open is] coming back to Oakmont. This really is the gold standard for championship golf. It doesn't get any better than Oakmont." -- Mike Davis, USGA Sr. Director of Rules and Competitions
Oakmont, Pennsylvania, is a suburb of Pittsburgh and boasts a population of nearly 6,500 residents. This borough is nicknamed "one square mile of happiness" by locals, although it really encompasses almost two square miles of true area. That's fine; there's nothing wrong with more happiness! The borough's name was derived from a tree that stood at the bank of the Allegheny River and served as a landmark in Oakmont's early days. See more
Finding an apartment in Oakmont 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.
