Your pet also matters when choosing a home
In Mexico, 70% of households have at least one pet, but finding pet-friendly housing remains challenging. Many condo regulations prohibit pets or limit their size.
Your legal rights as a pet owner
In Mexico City, animal protection laws recognize pets as integral household members. Several states have approved reforms limiting condos from absolutely prohibiting pets.
How to search for pet friendly housing
Filter by "accepts pets" on real estate portals, look for developments with ample green areas, ask landlords directly before scheduling visits, and check full condo regulations.
Adapting your home for pets
For dogs: scratch-resistant floors, dog doors, accessible wash areas. For cats: balcony safety nets, climbing surfaces. For both: resistant upholstery and washable wall finishes.
