It's not really Letting Agents that cause the 'pets' problem.

 

Instead, it's:

a. leasehold covenants on most flats which often preclude a sub-letting leaseholder from allowing the sub-tenant's pets; and

b. mortgagees (lenders) whose mortgage conditions might also preclude pets.

 

So you'd be best seeking to take a sub-letting of a freehold house (= no leasehold covenants) that's unmortgaged.

Most social Housing providers such as the Council and local Housing Associations have a "No Pets" Policy, I'm in a SYHA Flat and a few years back one of my neighbours got evicted for having 2 dogs, 2 cats, and a Budgie.

thats what like about pinto solutions agent and landlord cause they allowed me to get a house cat for company.

SYHA allow pets in some properties and not others, the criteria seems to be based on whether the property has it's own front door; so 1 bed flats in a block with a shared main entrance would not have pets, whereas a 1 bed flat not in a block with an individual front door would allow a pet.

New rules came into effect in January this year mean that Land Lords cannot automatically ban/disallow pets

No. These are simply a precedent form of Letting Agreement.

They are not enforceable- nor can they override pre-existing obligations (e.g. covenants enforceable by the landlord [lessor] in the long lease of a flat, or obligations enforceable by the mortgagee [lender] under mortgage conditions).
