Welcome to Stone Cove Pet Policy

Pet Policy at Stone Cove Apartments


At Stone Cove, pets are welcome within clear guidelines designed to keep common spaces clean and neighbors comfortable. We celebrate island living with furry companions while safeguarding safety, quiet, and predictable routines for every resident. Our on-site team is available to answer questions, confirm current restrictions, and help with the pet registration process. Please supervise your animals, keep voices at a respectful level, and promptly pick up after pets. Outdoor areas follow leash rules and designate relief zones, and nearby parks invite adventures with your animal family. For guests and new movers, the leasing team provides a concise overview of what is allowed and how to stay compliant. We outline how to report concerns and request accommodations for service animals when needed. Our aim is a welcoming, low‑stress environment that supports both pet lovers and neighbors alike.

Living with Pets on Anastasia Island

Stone Cove welcomes cats and small dogs under reasonable guidelines to protect neighbors and the property. Cats and dogs in residence should fit within a reasonable size limit, typically under 30 pounds, with a maximum of two pets per home with prior approval. We do not permit aggressive breeds or animals with histories that raise safety concerns. All pets must be current on vaccines, licensed, and wearing up‑to‑date tags. A brief introduction interview helps us tailor guidelines to your household while preserving a peaceful, comfortable community for all residents.

Pet Eligibility: Cats and Small Dogs Welcome

Stone Cove accepts cats and small dogs within breed/weight limits. Register at the office with pet info; rules may vary; management can advise.

Pet Registration Services

Once approved, register your pet with Stone Cove management. Include name, breed, weight, and vaccination records if available; a photo helps ID.

Pet Etiquette in Shared Spaces

Keep pets leashed in common areas; pick up waste. Unattended pets on sidewalks or patios should be avoided; keep barking neighbor-friendly.

Pet Guidelines and Restrictions

Service animals and emotional support animals are accommodated in accordance with federal and state laws. If you rely on a service animal, please inform the leasing office so we can verify documentation and ensure accessible living spaces. We may request reasonable information to confirm status and to address safety considerations. Stone Cove is committed to reasonable accommodations that support attendance at work and school, while maintaining safety and comfort for other residents. Guidance on where to walk service animals and where to relieve them is provided in the resident handbook.

House Rules and Responsible Pet Ownership

Pet-Friendly Amenities and Spaces

All pets must be kept on a leash or in a carrier in all common areas unless otherwise posted. Please pick up after your pet and dispose of waste in exterior bins. Do not allow animals to run free in hallways or on landscaped lawns, and observe quiet hours to minimize disturbances. Pet waste stations and nearby green spaces are available to help keep the property tidy, while respectful behavior helps us maintain a calm, comfortable environment for families, seniors, and professionals.

Behavior and Care Standards

Living with pets at Stone Cove is a daily collaboration. Our guidelines emphasize crate training where appropriate, regular grooming, and gentle handling that reduces stress for animals and neighbors. In practice, this means quick responses to leash rule requests, quick cleanup after visits, and a courteous approach to noisy behavior. Management supports you with resources, education, and timely maintenance to keep our grounds clean. By partnering with residents, we keep a quiet, well‑maintained island home that fits busy schedules and peaceful lifestyles.
