Willis, TX

59 Dog Friendly Apartments for Rent

Willis, Texas, was founded in 1870 after the Willis brothers donated their land to the Great Northern Railroad so it could build a route between Houston and Chicago. Willis, Texas, is a rapidly growing community in Montgomery County located 50 miles north of downtown Houston along Interstate 45. This town of 5,662 residents still has the down-home, small-town-Texas feel yet is starting to integrate the suburban lifestyle that exists in other Montgomery County towns such as The Woodlands, Magnolia, and Conroe. While Willis started out as a railroad town and still has a lot of rail traffic, it has diversified itself into a hub for agriculture, petroleum and recreation, as it is situated just east of Lake Conroe.

Finding an apartment in Willis 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.
