At Mill Creek Residential, we believe pets are part of the family. That’s why all residents are asked to complete a quick pet profile through PetScreening.com. Even if you don’t have a household pet, this step is required as part of your application and renewal process. No pet or have an assistance animal? No fee required—just complete the profile so we have your info on file. Your application or lease approval may be delayed if this step isn’t complete, so we recommend checking it off your list early! Have a pet? There’s a $30 annual fee per household for each pet profile through PetScreening.com, and a limit of 2 pets per home. Our weight limit for each pet is 120lbs, and our breed restrictions are Pit Bulls (aka Staffordshire Terrier), Bull Terrier, Akita, Presa Canario, Mastiff, Rottweilers, German Shepherds, Dobermans, Chowchows or any hybrid or mixed breed of one of the breeds listed.  Our pet rent is $50 per month per pet.
