Pet fee, what would be reasonable?

[Nam Trang]

I do not intend to charge my tenants a pet deposit or monthly pet rent. Was thinking of a pet fee in the amount that a deep clean would cost? Carpet cleaning and house cleaning. Would $250 be reasonable and if the cleaning goes above $250 can I deduct the additional amount? This is a single family home. Good tenants who are responsible

I suggest charging a one time, non-refundable pet fee - most landlords usually charge anywhere between $50-$500 for pet fees, which you can use for any damages. You can charge this fee, depending on the amount of risk presented by the pet. 
Pet fees are not legal in every state, so I suggest you refer to your state laws as well.
