The majority of senior living communities allow pets, including assisted living, nursing homes, and independent living communities. It’s not unusual for the community to have rules or restrictions on the size or type of pets accepted. For example, some facilities may not allow certain dog breeds, or may require pets to weigh less than 20 pounds. Exotic animals such as certain birds or snakes may not be allowed in every building. If you’re looking to bring a pet into your new living arrangement, talk to your Senior Advisor about your furry friend to make sure that we find a community that’s compatible.
