Rules Around Having Pets in Rental Properties in Darwin

Having a pet can sometimes be a challenge when looking for rental properties in Darwin, as there may be additional criteria you have to fulfil to qualify for your chosen property.

Elaine Mills Property Management will gladly guide you through the process.

There are no specific laws governing pets for rentals in Darwin, or across the Northern Territory, so permission to have a pet is entirely at the discretion of your landlord. Below, we explore some things you can do to improve your chances.
