A waste removal penalty of $50 per occurrence will be assessed to Owner’s for failure to comply with pet rules on waste removal.
- No pet is to be left unattended in a Tenant's unit for a period longer than that which is appropriate in light of the needs of the pet. In general, dogs should not be left unattended for more than 9 hours, and other pets for more than 24 hours, on a regular basis. When Landlord has reasonable cause to believe a pet has been left unattended for an extended period of time, Landlord will attempt to contact the Tenant or the emergency pet caretakers (listed below) to remedy the situation. If the emergency pet caretakers (listed below) are unwilling or unable to assume responsibility for the pet, Landlord may enter the Tenant's unit and make any necessary arrangements for the pet's care, including but not limited to removing the pet and placing it in a temporary home, such as a boarding kennel. Any costs incurred will be deducted from the Tenant's pet and security deposit.

Tenants are responsible for ensuring that their pets do not disturb or annoy other tenants or neighbors. Tenants whose pet(s) are determined by Landlord to be disturbing others must remedy the situation immediately. If Tenant fails to remedy the situation after two (2) warning(s), Tenant will receive a 30-day notice to remove the pet, except in the case of a serious problem, e.g. a vicious dog, whereby the length of time may be shortened in the interest of public safety. If Tenant fails to remove the pet, Tenant will be considered in breach of the Tenant's Lease and may be required to vacate the Premises.
