Mission, TX

129 Dog Friendly Apartments for Rent

With a growing population, Mission is far from a small town but it isn't quite a big city, either. It retains its own particular Southwestern charm after all, any town that bills itself as the "Home of the Ruby Red Grapefruit" isn't going to be vying with Manhattan for international city status yet it has its own cosmopolitan flair. You'll find more than a touch of savvy sophistication, for example, in its thriving commercial community, which boasts major players such as the corporate headquarters for the Texas Citrus Exchange. Once you're in the residential sections of town, however, you feel as if you've stepped into the pages of a guide for gracious living, complete with lovely homes and beautifully landscaped parks. It's one of those best-of-both-worlds places, with a big helping of Texas warmth and friendliness thrown in for good measure. See more

Finding an apartment in Mission 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.
