While a pet is a popular companion to many, not everyone shares the enthusiasm for domesticated animals. If you have a pet and are looking for a home there are numerous jurisdictions to take into account.

– Fairfax county have various rules and regulations in regards to dogs, cats, chickens, bees and other animals.
– The city or planning district may have further rules and regulations.
– The homeowners and condominium association again may have further restrictions.

The rules may limit the types of animals you can have, the number of them and also spells out how animals can use public and common elements (a condominium may not allow dogs through the front lobby for example.)
