such mixed feelings about this, first if it's an apartment or a condo that is for rent, you have the problem of barking which is disturbing for neighbors, then of course with dogs, especially the small ones you have the wetting problem. I would trust Lola not to wet indoors as long as I was able to let her out every 6 hours or so, but I know from having friends over with dogs most piddle or poop every time they come over. Some are dogs are extremely destructive with chewing, I knew one dog that managed to shred up wallpaper and a bunch of the carpet. When I met my husband he had a non de clawed cat in his apartment, the cat managed to shred up a bunch on the carpet as well as scratched the heck out of some of the wood work and made mince meat out of his sofa. The cat was an indoor cat so before he could bring her into the home I owned I made him declaw her, she was fine and my place was not destroyed.
On a side note I might be more inclined to rent to someone with one or two pets than with a few young children I am often appalled by the condition some homes and apartments are in when a few kids are living there.
