We Love Pets!!
We are pleased to rent to residents with pets. Most of our properties are pet friendly and this information will be listed in the ad for each house. These terms are largely based on the comfort level of the property owner and the restrictions they decide for a pet to be considered. Some properties are suitable for residents with a cat, while other properties may not allow cats due to allergy issues of the property owner. Please note that breeding of any pets is not allowed on our properties. At SCUDO we require every animal to go through our professional screening process. The fee for this is $20.00 for the first pet profile and $15.00 for each additional pet in your profile. These application fees are paid directly to our 3rd party vendor conducting the pet screening. SCUDO does not retain any portion of this fee. This screening is part of our application process and any house application received that lists a pet(s) must complete this in order to move forward with the rental application.
Sadly, we are generally unable to rent to breeds that are commonly labeled as “aggressive” by the insurance companies.
It is the sole obligation of the applicant to get their pet approved prior to submitting the rental application, please be prepared to submit a photo along with your request for approval. Non-qualifying pets may result in denial of rental application.

Consideration to Approve
The overall strength of your qualifications weighs heavily on the consideration to approve your pet, as does the age, weight and breed of the pet. The pet application must be completed. All approved pets are subject to a $35.00/month pet acceptance fee, per pet. At SCUDO Real Estate & Property Management, we conduct at least one pet inspection on pet approved properties per year and the fee is $99.00 per inspection, due at the time of lease signing.
Service/Emotional Support Animals
We always accept service/emotional support animals with proper documentation. Service/Emotional support animals are not subject to additional deposit, pet acceptance fee, or pet inspection fee. Once your application is approved we will provide the request for a reasonable accommodation request and verification of disability and need.
