Be the first landlord in Staten IslandStaten Island feels different from the rest of the city for pet owners. A larger share of rentals are single-family and two-family houses, apartments within houses and smaller buildings, so a fenced yard or driveway is more common than in other boroughs. Many landlords are individual owners who decide pet requests personally, which makes a clear pet résumé and references especially useful.
If a rental includes a yard, ask whether the fence is complete and tall enough for your dog, whether gates latch, and whether the yard is shared with the owner or another unit. Staten Island has large wooded and park areas, so ask your vet about tick prevention and check your pet after walks. Many residents rely on a car, so think about vet and pet supply trips when choosing a neighborhood.
Staten Island is part of New York City, so city rules apply. NYC's pet law (NYC Administrative Code § 27-2009.1) can waive a no-pet clause in buildings with three or more units when a pet is kept openly for three months with the landlord's knowledge and no legal action, though it doesn't apply in one- and two-family houses or NYCHA housing. The NYC Office of Animal Welfare has details.
Dogs in New York City are licensed through the NYC Health Department, and license fees support shelters and spay/neuter programs. A pet résumé with vaccinations, training notes and a past landlord reference helps owner-landlords say yes. Make a free pet résumé.
Low or no pet fees means monthly pet rent of $25 or less per pet and a one-time non-refundable pet fee of $300 or less. Fee-Friendly Landlords appear first.
