Pet Friendly Housing

Pet Friendly Rental Housing Locations

You and your furry friend may discover that unfortunately many rental-housing properties have a "No Pets Allowed" policy. With 36.2% of people in Toledo renting, there are limited choices. They constitute a significant market share for the landlords. In the end, both parties are losing!

While difficult to find, there are rental properties that do allow pets. To help you with this, the Toledo Area Humane Society has created a database of properties (both apartments and mobile home parks) that allow pets and list their restrictions. The list is broken down by geographic area, so you can easily search by North, South, West, or East Toledo.

This database is frequently updated and the information may change if a property comes under new management. If you know of a property that is listed improperly, or one that is not included, please let us know.

The income of these potential tenants is also a motivating factor in allowing pets. According to the 1996 No.431 Household Pet Ownership survey, there is a correlation between the income bracket and percentage of pet ownership:
