A pet can provide companionship if you’re a student, especially if you plan to live in an apartment by yourself. When you rent an apartment that allows pets, there are some things to consider so that the living situation is comfortable for you and your neighbors.
Be Upfront

If you try to sneak in a pet or two, then it could result in you being asked to leave the apartment or being asked to get rid of your pet.
Cleaning

While staying in one of the pet-friendly apartments near University of South Carolina, you need to clean any areas inside your home so that there no pet hair is on the floor. If you keep your home clean, then you could get a deposit back that you had to pay when you moved into the apartment.
Noise
It’s common for pets to make noise while in an apartment as you can’t be expected to keep them completely quiet. However, you should try to keep dogs from barking for long periods of time and try to prevent a lot of loud playing if at all possible as these noises could disturb some of your neighbors. Try to take your pets outside during the day so that they can play instead of being loud indoors.
