If you are a pet owner, and are living in an apartment, you know that it can be pretty challenging to both care for your pet, and keep your home and belongings in good condition. Not all apartment complexes have units available for pet owners; and those that do usually require a pet deposit that generally start at around $200. However, the joy of having a pet so often supersedes the challenges. So, if you are looking for easy and budget friendly ways to pet-proof your apartment, keep reading the list below!
