Last week, I posted in this subreddit searching for recommendations/areas for a dog-friendly 1 bedroom apartment for around $2k. I did end up finding an apartment for $100 more than what I wanted to spend, HOWEVER, I got everything I wanted and MORE in Mission Valley: 1 bed/1 bath, 700 sq ft, updated unit, 2 parking spots included, no dog rent or dog deposit, and very nice owners that I will be renting directly from who live locally (not some property management corporation). The complex itself has 3 pools, a gym, shared laundry, tennis courts, community grills, and beautifully maintained landscaping. Additionally, this complex is 1 block up from a trolley station so I barely need my car to commute to my office.

I found it through a realtor but the listing was publicly available on Zillow as well. I'm posting here to give others hope that these units ARE out there. You may have to slightly adjust your budget. For me, personally, it came down to what the unit has to offer for my money.

Edit: of course even on a positive post someone has to downvote it. Some people are just miserable.

Hi all. I'll be moving to the area from Long Beach - aiming for September. Where can I find large dog friendly apartments in SD that aren't incredibly expensive? I've been looking at all of the rental websites I can think of. I haven't had a chance quite yet to come down and drive the neighborhoods I would like to be in. I also looked at the San Diego Humane Society's website of dog friendly apartments. Feels like a needle in a haystack situation. Are there other ways of finding large dog friendly units? The thing is, me and my dog won't even be there full time as I still have to split my time between Long Beach on weekends and San Diego during the week for work. There may be some weeks my dog stays in Long Beach with my husband. I don't feel right about getting one of those ESA letters. My situation is complex but I'm trying my best to deal with the hand I have been dealt. Any leads would be great.

Tickets are for adults only. Entrance time is 2 PM at South Coast Botanical Garden. It is for 2 general admission tickets + the butterfly feeding experience. Total for the tickets is $66. My husband and I came down with a cold after traveling, so we need to stay home to recover. DM if you'd like to buy them. I will email you the tickets. I accept Venmo or Zelle.
