House hacking with pets.

[Joshua Hively]

Soon my partner and I will start house hacking a duplex. I think throughout our REI career I plan on having a no pet policy. However I am wondering how this will work during the house hacking phase as we have a dog and 2 cats. I think that as the property owner, I should be able to have pets while not allowing the tenants to. I was curious if anyone here has any experience our thoughts on the matter. Thanks!
