• Pets must be on a leash at all times and accompanied by a family member. Pets may also be in a cage or kennel.
• Pets should not be noisy or otherwise disruptive while visiting.
• When pets are take outdoors to eliminate, please walk them in designated areas and not in the courtyard. Waste should be bagged and placed in an outdoor trash receptacle. Please ask the front desk about designated pet areas and for disposal bags.
• If your pet urinates or defecates inside, the accident must be reported to staff immediately.
• The visitor who accompanies the pet takes full responsibility for assuring the pet’s proper behavior and safety.
