As a pet owner in Austin I've seen the usual is $300-500 as a pet deposit and at the end of the least if there is no pet damages you MAY get back half of the deposit but. Also any additional pets would be a nonrefundable $200-300. Austin loves it's pets. I highly suggest renting to pet owners here. Some places add on $15-25 a month per pet too but as a renter that would just turn me away from the property unless I REALLY like it or am cramped on time. You definitely want to charge enough for deposits and such to help cover cleaning and light damage repair but at the same time if you charge too much people will just bring their pets in and never tell you about it. I'd rather have an honest and happy pet owner then a soiled house from a pet with no pet deposit money to help clean it back up!
