Pet Fees Deposit / Rent

Drew Johnson
  • Cleveland, OH
Posted

I haven't typically allowed pets, but I want to know what are standard fees to charge for pets. I am thinking the following:

  • $250 non-refundable deposit total
  • $25/month per pet up to 3 pets.

Am I in line with what everyone else is doing or should I be asking more?

Thanks,
Drew

Hi Drew, 

I would even consider charging a non-refundable fee in addition to a potentially refundable deposit. Example $250 fee, $250 deposit and $25/month per pet. 

This would ensure you're covered if damages exceed $250. 

Good luck!
