Three Benefits of Our Pet-Friendly Apartment Community

As a pet owner, have you struggled to find the right housing for you and your animal companion? So many rental properties don’t allow pets, and even those that do may not offer everything your pet needs to live a happy life.

That’s why we are so happy to be a pet-friendly apartment community! Pets can help us become physically and emotionally healthier and make new friends. Keep reading to learn more about the benefits of pet ownership at Le Med Apartments.

Pets Help You Be Healthier

Beyond encouraging you to get out and walk more, do pets bring their owners other health benefits? Absolutely! Here are just a couple from Fetch by WebMD :

  • People who have never owned a cat are 40 percent more likely to die of a heart attack than those who have.
  • Children living with a dog or cat are less likely to develop allergies.
  • Pet owners have lower blood pressure and heart rates at rest than people without pets.

Looking for a boost in physical health? Getting a dog or cat may be the way to go!

Pets Boost Mental Health

If you’ve ever snuggled a sweet furry friend, you probably noticed that you felt happier and calmer. And science backs this up! Studies have found lots of mental health benefits of pet ownership, including the following:

  • Better self-esteem
  • Greater sense of identity, self-worth, and meaning
  • Happier, more optimistic outlook
  • Stronger emotional regulation skills
  • More empathy and feelings of trust toward others

Whether you are watching fish serenely gliding around their aquarium or playing fetch with a delighted dog, pets can give your emotions and mental health a boost towards greater happiness.

Pets Lead You to New Human Friends

When you have a pet, it’s easier to make connections with others who also have pets. If you take your dog to a dog park, for example, you might just make human friends while your dog makes dog friends! We have a couple of great dog parks nearby: South Hills Park in Glendora and Central Bark Dog Park in West Covina, just to name two.

What to Know about Our Pet-Friendly Apartment Community

If you are thinking about moving to Le Med, or if you are already a resident and would like to get a pet, we are so excited for you! Here are some of our regulations to keep in mind:

  • There is a 25-pound weight limit for pets.
  • Dogs and Cats are allowed.
  • We have breed restrictions due to size and behavior traits.
  • Small animals, like hamsters, guinea pigs, birds, and reptiles, must be caged and kept in a sanitary condition.
  • Additional or other pets must be approved by our management team.
  • Only authorized pets with the owner’s approval are allowed on the premises.

While outside of your apartment with your dog, we ask that you keep your dog on a leash. We also have Pet Waste Stations located throughout the property, making it easy to pick up after your pet!

With all the positives that come from having a pet, we are so glad to be a pet-friendly apartment community. If you have any questions, reach out to us today! We’re happy to chat and see how we can make your experience even better.

We want to highlight the various ways you can handle your monthly rent, including some exciting benefits that help you build your financial future just by living with us. 1. The AppFolio Resident Portal App The easiest way to manage your living experience is through the AppFolio app. It is a one-stop shop for your most frequent needs: Convenient Payments: Set up one-time or automatic payments using a bank account (e-check), credit card, or debit card.

Full Transparency: View your current balance, previous statements, and full payment history anytime. 2. Build Your Credit for Free with Pinata Your consistent rent payments should work for you. We are proud to offer Free Positive Rent Payment Reporting to major credit bureaus through our partner, Pinata. How it works: You will receive an email invitation from Pinata to sign up for this service. Once you are enrolled, your on-time payments are reported to the credit bureaus. The Benefit: This helps you build your credit score over time without any extra cost. It is our way of rewarding your reliability and helping you reach your long-term financial goals. (Please note: we do not utilize any resident reward or marketplace features through Pinata; this service is strictly for your credit reporting benefit.) 3. More Ways the App Helps You Beyond payments, the AppFolio app remains your primary tool for staying connected with our Azusa community. You can: Submit Maintenance Requests: Easily upload photos and descriptions of any needed repairs. Manage Renter's Insurance: Access your policy or update your provider details.
