Pet & Animal Policies
A welcoming and safe environment is paramount to all of our tenants. To help ensure ALL of our tenants understand our pet and animal-related policies (No Pet and Animal Policy / Pet Policy / Animal Policy) we require EVERYONE to complete a third-party screening and review process. This process ensures we have formalized pet and animal-related policy acknowledgments and more accurate records to create greater mutual accountability. Please find the category below that best describes you to get started. Please note: no aggressive breeds are permitted as pets in our homes.
- No Pets or Animals
This is a required application process for anyone that does NOT own a pet or animal. There is no cost ($0) to you for completing the application process. It is simply to make sure you are aware of all rules relating to a No Pet/No Animal home.
- Household Pets
This is a required application process for anyone who owns a household pet. This includes dogs and caged animals alike (note: no exotic animals will be considered for our properties). Pet cats are not permitted in any of our homes. The cost for is $20 for the first pet, and $15 for each additional pet.
- Assistance Animals
This process provides a HIPAA compliant and secure way of submitting a reasonable accommodation request for an assistance animal (service animals, emotional support animals, companion animals, etc.) that will be reviewed by a third-party legal review team to ensure the accommodation request meets HUD’s Fair Housing Act guidelines. There is no cost ($0) to you to submit an accommodation request. Please make sure you are aware of your State’s laws, if any, for submitting a fraudulent accommodation request

Pet Screening
Pet Screening is a simple and secure tool allowing you to store all the important information about your pet in one place.
Alliance PM applicants are required to complete a pet screening for each of their pets or companion animals at time of application. Pet screenings are $20 for the first pet and $15 for each additional pet. Service/companion animal and No Pet registration is free.
The benefits of registering your pet with a pet screening service are huge. An online pet screening allows you to consolidate the paperwork required to manage your pet's complicated life, all in one place.
