Pet-friendly apartments in Budapest

Moving to Budapest with your dog or cat? Many owners hesitate to accept pets. Story’s Budapest asks them first, and only shows you apartments where your companion is welcome.

Asked before the viewing

We check with the owner that pets are accepted before suggesting an apartment: no disappointment at the visit.

Written in the lease

The pet is named in the lease, so that everything is clear on both sides until the end of the tenancy.

Green spaces nearby

City Park, Margaret Island, the Danube embankments and the dog runs of each district: we help you choose the street.

Budapest, a city for dogs

Budapest is used to dogs: parks, dog runs (kutyafuttató) in every district, and cafés that welcome them. Around District VI and District VII, City Park is a short walk away; in District V, the Danube and Margaret Island are close.

Finding an owner who says yes

Pets are a frequent reason for owners to refuse a tenant. Because we manage apartments for their owners, we know which ones accept pets and we can present your application properly: who you are, your pet, your references.

Frequently asked questions

Can I rent an apartment in Budapest with a dog?
Yes, as long as the owner agrees. Many hesitate, which is why we ask before suggesting an apartment and write the pet into the lease.
Do building rules matter?
Some buildings have house rules (házirend) about pets in shared areas. We check them before you sign.
Is it easier with a cat than with a dog?
Owners are often less reluctant with a cat or a small dog. Tell us about your pet and we target the right apartments.
