What does “pet-friendly” mean on Openigloo?

It means the building is marked as allowing pets, but the details still vary. Fees, breed/weight/count limits, and required documentation may apply, so you should confirm the exact rules with the building.

How does the SIM2 bus filter work for “near the SIM2 bus” buildings?

It narrows buildings to those that fall within the page’s SIM2-bus access criteria in Manhattan. Use it as a location shortcut, then verify the closest stop and your walking/transfer time.

Are there additional pet restrictions besides whether pets are allowed?

Yes. Buildings may limit pet types, require vaccinations/documentation, or restrict how pets move through common areas. Ask specifically about the elevator, lobby, and any courtyard/roof rules.

Do pet fees and deposits change the true monthly cost?

They can. Even when a building is pet-friendly, the full monthly and move-in costs can include pet fees/deposits and other charges, so compare the total before you apply.

What should I ask the super or leasing office before applying?

Ask for the exact written pet policy for your unit, confirmation of the number/weight limits, the fee schedule, required documentation, and whether the policy differs for renewals versus new leases.

Can I rely only on the page for pet approval?

No. The filter indicates the building’s stated pet-friendliness, but approvals can still depend on your pet’s details and the building’s current requirements. Treat the page as a starting point and confirm directly.
