Having a pet living with you can be very cathartic. It's someone who's not going to make a peep when you start raving about your day at work or turn their nose up at dinner. They're great companions that keep you company on the couch while you're in the middle of that sitcom marathon. They never complain about you sleeping in on the weekends and they always come running when you need them.

Pets are a valuable part of life but finding an apartment that will let you have a pet is sometimes difficult. Many luxury apartment buildings have no problems with you bringing Fluffy or Fido with you but smaller apartments sometimes have strict no pet policies. Don't worry if you find a place you love that says you aren't allowed to have pets, sometimes, with a little persuasion, this is amendable.

First, get a note from your vet explaining that your pet is up to date on shots. Knowing that the pet is in good health and is well behaved might be enough to convince your landlord. A veterinarian's assurances can go a long way.

You can also request a letter from your current landlord which can attest to the behavior and cleanliness of your pet. If your pet has caused no property damage, the reason that many buildings do not allow pets, you can perhaps show that your pet is worthy of staying in the apartment with you.

Sometimes noise is the reason that buildings do not allow pets. This would be a good time to get doggie (or kitty) references from previous neighbors. Even if you say that your dog doesn't bark it will mean more coming from a former neighbor who says they were surprised to find out you even had a dog! These sort of doggie references are usually enough to convince a landlord to let Fido move into your apartment.

If the reasoning isn't property damage or noise, it is likely just a policy. Don't worry though, all buildings must allow service animals. If you can get a letter from a therapist or doctor that says that you need this pet, landlords are required to allow the pet into the apartment rental. Reasons for needing an animal don't have to be physical need. Emotional need of a pet is enough for many doctors and therapists to write to apartment landlords saying that the emotional well-being of a tenant to be compromised. This should be enough to have Fluffy and Fido with you in your new, wonderful apartment. Be sure that your lease is amended before you sign it!
