Document background
The Pet Addendum Rental Agreement is designed for use in New Zealand rental properties where tenants wish to keep pets or where landlords want to formalize existing pet arrangements. This document serves as a supplementary agreement to the main residential tenancy agreement, providing specific terms and conditions for pet ownership while ensuring compliance with the Residential Tenancies Act 1986, Animal Welfare Act 1999, and relevant local council bylaws. It includes detailed provisions for pet identification, care requirements, property maintenance, damage provisions, and dispute resolution procedures. The agreement is particularly important in protecting both landlord and tenant interests by clearly defining responsibilities and expectations regarding pet ownership in the rental property.
