Positive Pet Tenant Program
Our Positive Pet Tenant Program helps pet owners put their pets best paw forward when applying for a rental tenancy. Our program will ensure that pet owners are well equipped to confidently support their pet to be a valued tenant. On completion of our program, you will receive an RSPCA certificate of completion and a custom built pet resume. The program may also include:
- Behaviour support and advice
- Access to other outreach services including free or reduced desexing and microchipping.
FAQs
How much does the program cost?
The program is free for pet owners who hold a valid concession card. Pet owners who do not have a concession card may be required to pay a small fee for veterinary services such as desexing, vaccinations, microchips or other.
