Waller, WA

198 Dog Friendly Apartments for Rent

Waller is a quaint suburban neighborhood on the eastern edge of Tacoma made up of paved and dirt roads, mobile homes, and small single-family units with their own backyards and a bit more land. Numerous open fields give way to incredible views of Mount Rainier, and taxidermy reigns as a pastime here. The lush farmland gives way to beautiful rustic views for its residents. While it is a small, quiet community, the larger city of Tacoma is only a 15 minute drive away, a perfectly short distance for that night out on the town. But rest assured, you can always come home to the quiet solitude of Waller without sacrificing the accessibility of an urban lifestyle. See more

Finding an apartment in Waller 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.
