Additional deposits and monthly pet fees apply to all pet-approved properties and are clearly marked throughout the website. If our staff is helping you search, please let them know about your pet so they can recommend the best rentals.
We have partnered with a Pet Screening company to help manage our tenant’s pets and to ensure adherence to our pet policies. Please click here to learn more about pet screening and to submit your pet application. There is a non-refundable $20 application screening fee for the first pet, $15 for the second pet, and $0 for assistance/service animals.

Pet Criteria
Missoula Property Management has numerous pet-friendly rentals; however, the pet policy can vary depending on the type of dwelling. Please review our criteria to ensure your pet meets our policies. MPM reserves the right to deny a pet if they do not meet our criteria and will not refund an application fee due to the failure of the applicant to ensure the pet(s) meets regulations beforehand.
I. AMOUNTS OF ADDITIONAL PET DEPOSIT AND PET RENT
• 1 pet – $500 deposit and an additional $50 per month*
• 2 pets (select properties only) -*please inquire with MPM for additional costs.
