Alamo, TX

103 Dog Friendly Apartments for Rent

Located 240 miles south of the more famous Alamo, this town is sometimes called the "land of two summers" for its warm and pleasant weather. The community is surrounded by many vegetable farms and citrus groves of all types. It's considered a winter resort and a mecca for retirees. Perched as a gateway to Mexico -- and all those inexpensive leather handbags and blankets -- it's located next to the major transportation corridor, Rte 281. This charming and busy town sits right in the heart of the Rio Grande Valley in South Texas' Hidalgo County. See more

Finding an apartment in Alamo 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.
