4 Ways to Create A Pet Friendly Chicagoland Apartment

If you’re a pet owner, finding an apartment home that will welcome you and your pet can be a challenge. The pet friendly communities of Springs at Orchard Road and Springs at Weber Road, set to open later this year can make your transition with a pet to a new apartment much easier.

As you prepare to make the most of your new apartment home, consider the following four tips for pet-friendly apartment living.

Invest in Pet-Friendly Decor

As you make plans to decorate your suburban Chicago apartment, consider your pet's needs. You can add a number of attractive elements that double as pet beds or playthings, helping you make the most out of your space and decorating style while also accommodating the needs of your pet. Attractive, modern pet beds, cat trees that look like actual trees, wall-mounted climbing toys and chic food and water dishes are all attractive elements to add to your apartment.

Make the Apartment Safe

As you decorate, make sure dangerous, but tempting items are placed out of reach, or if possible avoid bringing them into the home altogether. Many house plants are poisonous to pets, so do your research before buying one. Additionally, dangling mini blind cords and accessible power cords can entice chewing and play activities — with potentially fatal consequences.

Learn the Local Pet-Friendly Spots

Both Romeoville and North Aurora have a number of pet-friendly attractions that are worth spending some time exploring. If you plan on being a resident of Springs at Orchard Road in North Aurora, take your pet to Mr. Scott's Dog Spa for pampering or pet boarding, or explore the local Petco for all of the supplies you need to satisfy your pet.

For those looking into Springs at Weber Road Apartments, Auntie Carol's Whisker Watchers will provide the pet watching and walking services you need, while Pups in Suds provides a great place for grooming. 

Take Advantage of On-Site Pet Amenities
