Pet Policy

Note: Each property owner is allowed to set their pet policy. Though most PMI Richmond properties allow pets, please see the property listing to determine if the home you’re interested in allows pets.

• All pets must be properly licensed, have shots required by statute, and be spayed or neutered. Please be prepared to show documentation.
• Breeds with a disposition for aggressive behavior are prohibited.
• Most properties have restrictions on the number of pets and the size of the pet. Please check with the property listing for specific details.
• Be prepared to provide a picture of your pet and vaccination records.
• A security deposit will be charged for each pet. The amount of the deposit will vary depending on the owner policy and the size of the pet.

PMI Richmond has a very basic pet policy. Most of our properties allow almost any pet you could imagine! We have had Labs and Chihuahuas, cats and mice (not together of course), snakes, ferrets, birds and rabbits. We understand that a pet plays a significant part in many people's lives, so we strive to allow most animals in most of our rental properties. Please make sure to ask if the property that has caught your eye accepts pets. Pet Screening Profiles are required for all animals looking to be accepted in one of our properties. Pet Screenings can be completed by going to: https://app.petscreening.com/referral/Z7NcxJKE1KL4

The only general restriction we have is that your animal must be one year of age or older. We are willing to work with some puppies and kittens, depending on age and training and the general application information of their owners; however this is handled on a case by case basis (pet rent will be charged according to the anticipated full grown weight of your animal). If you have several pets, please call to make sure that we have a property suitable for a large number of animals. Regardless of prior consent, PMI Richmond reserves the right to have any pet removed from the property if it is determined that the pet poses a threat to the safety or condition of the property or any people in the property or the community.

PMI Richmond charges pet rent each month for each of your animals. The term “pet rent” is simply rent you will pay for the allowance of your pet to occupy the rental unit with you. Pet rent is charged on a monthly basis and is paid with your rent. The charges breakdown as follows for different types and sizes of animals:
