Pet Policy

At WM at the River, we know that your pets are a part of your family. That’s why we welcome your furry, four-legged friends with open arms. Enjoy taking walks around the community green spaces, or stretch your legs at one of the many nearby parks and walking trails. Your pets will love it here as much as you will!

Pets are limited to common household pets, which are defined by HUD as: a domesticated animal such as a dog, cat, small bird, fish, or turtle that is traditionally kept in the home for pleasure rather than for commercial purposes. The following pet standards apply:

Each resident household is allowed one (1) common household pets with an adult weight of no more than 30lbs.

The Pet Rules require resident pet owners to pay a refundable pet deposit. The owner will use the pet deposit only to pay reasonable expenses directly attributable to the presence of the pet on the property.

The pet deposit will be $300.00. A $100.00 initial pet deposit is required at the time the pet is brought on to the premises. The resident will be required to pay the remaining balance in increments of $25.00 per month until the $300.00 pet deposit is collected. Residents may pay the entire pet deposit upfront or in increments greater than those described if he/she chooses to do so.

Service animals, companion animals and therapy animals are not considered pets. If a resident wishes to request an assistance animal, review and follow the process to request a reasonable accommodation and to request an animal.

All animals, including assistance animals, must be approved and registered before the animal is allowed to live in the unit.
