Pets in Boston
Finding housing if you have a pet is not an easy task. Here is what you should know:
1. Harvard University housing does not allow pets.
2. Rental agents have very few pet friendly listings.
3. Private landlords may consider allowing a pet.
4. If you own your own place, you’ll have no problem.
If you get past the housing issue, here is some useful information:
