Middle Valley, Tennessee is considered part of the Chattanooga Metropolitan Statistical Area. It's an unincorporated community in Hamilton County with a population of about 13,000, located at the southern end of the state near the Georgia and Alabama state lines. Middle Valley, also referred to as Middle Valley Estates on some maps, is about 10 minutes up the road from Hixson, a northern suburb of Chattanooga where many Middle Valley residents commute to work and to shop for basic needs, like groceries and clothing. The community of Middle Valley is what many people in the south refer to as an "acreage," meaning it's an area full of homes on large lots without any real city center or central business district. So, if you like the idea of living in a rural community (and lower rental rates!) with enough space to clearly see the stars twinkling at night in the Southern sky, but still close enough to the big city and all of its amenities, Middle Valley could be the ideal location for you.

Finding an apartment in Middle Valley 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.
