🐾 Thinking about getting a pet?
With the Renters’ Rights changes, landlords will be expected to consider pet requests more reasonably. However, this does not mean tenants can bring a pet into a rental property without permission.
Before welcoming a new furry friend home, make sure you:
✅ Submit a request to your landlord or letting agent
✅ Wait for approval before bringing the pet to the property
✅ Understand any conditions attached to pet ownership in your tenancy
Open communication helps ensure a positive experience for tenants, landlords, neighbours, and pets alike.
