Can I have two dogs in a 2-bedroom?

Up to two pets per apartment, two dogs included. The 2BR layouts have walk-in closets in each bedroom and washer and dryer in the unit, so crates, beds, and gear have a home.

Are any breeds restricted?

Ann Arbor has no breed-specific legislation at the city level. Packard Row's own policy on breed sits on top of city law, and leasing confirms the specifics before tour day so there are no surprises.

What's the pet rent and deposit?

Packard Row charges a $250 one-time pet fee per pet and $50 monthly pet rent per pet. The fee is paid at move-in, the monthly rent is added to the unit rent. Maximum two pets per apartment, 50-pound weight limit per pet.

Where can I walk a dog from the building?

The Packard corridor runs north and south from the building with sidewalks the whole way. County Farm Park is about a mile to the southwest with paved and natural-surface trails. Most routine walks happen along Packard Street or through the residential blocks east of the corridor.

Is there an off-leash dog park nearby?

Swift Run Dog Park at 3635 Platt Road is Ann Arbor's main off-leash dog park, about a five-minute drive from Packard Row. County Farm Park is closer (about a mile) but on-leash only.

Can I have a cat and a dog?

The two-pet policy is flexible on combination. Two dogs, two cats, or one of each are all fine. Leasing confirms specifics at signing.

Are the balconies dog-safe?

Packard Row doesn't publish a separate balcony pet rule. Balcony use with pets follows the building's general lease terms. Confirm specifics with the leasing office before move-in if your dog spends regular time on a balcony.

Two pets, two bathrooms, room to actually live with them.

Every 2BR floor plan is a 2-bath with a walk-in closet in each bedroom. That means the crate has a home, the cat tree has a wall, and the litter box doesn't live in the bathroom you brush your teeth in. The pet policy: up to two pets per apartment, cats and dogs both welcome.

Ann Arbor doesn't restrict dogs by breed at the city level. Licensing is the only city-level rule for dogs over six months. The building's own pet policy is $250 one-time per pet plus $50 per pet per month, with a 50-pound weight limit. Specific breed considerations are confirmed at signing so nothing on policy is a surprise on move-in day.

What leasing asks for before your pet joins the lease.

Six things to have ready for the tour or signing day. Most of it is paperwork you already keep on file.

Current vet records

Rabies and distemper records, plus the contact for your vet. Packard Row keeps this on file alongside the lease.

Pet rent and one-time fee

Packard Row charges a $250 one-time pet fee per pet, plus $50 monthly pet rent per pet. The fee covers move-in pet processing. The monthly rent recurs alongside the unit rent.

Breed and weight check

Ann Arbor has no breed-specific legislation at the city level. The building's own policy on breed sits on top of city law, with a 50-pound weight limit per pet. Specifics are confirmed by phone or email.

library.municode.com

Two pets per apartment

Up to two pets per apartment, cats and dogs. Two dogs, two cats, or one of each, whatever the combination is.

City dog licensing

Ann Arbor requires licensing for dogs over six months, issued by the City Clerk. Have this in place within 30 days of move-in if your dog isn't already licensed in Washtenaw County.

a2gov.org

Leash compliance

City Code Section 9:47(1) prohibits off-leash dogs outside designated dog play areas or private yards. Off-leash time happens at Swift Run Dog Park or in your own yard. Everywhere else, a leash.
