1st time renewing lease, do I ask for another pet deposit?

[Ally Kumar]

Hi all, I am renewing lease for my tenant for the first time. They paid $250 pet deposit last year. I am not sure if I should take pet deposit of $250 per every lease of 12 months or it it a one time pet deposit. Secondly, pet deposit paid by tenant needs to be put in escrow account with their security deposit or not? Thanks for helping out a newish landlord.
