Sacramento, CA pet rent max? (Lease created wit Zillow caps $30)
Is there a maximum monthly pet rent that I can charge in Sacramento, CA. I want to charge $40 monthly.
I am using Zillow for the first time to create a Lease for a property in Sacramento, CA.
While I like that Zillow pulls a lot of state/county specific laws, I notice that Zillow caps the monthly Pet Rent (pet fee) at $30 maximum. Has anyone experienced this?

I don't allow pets so I don't charge a pet rent and have never tried inputting that on Zillow. However, even Zillow's own site doesn't mention any restrictions on that (see here) and there's no law against it. There's also other rentals listed on Zillow in the City of Sacramento area with pet rents greater than $30 (I just scanned the listings and pulled up multiple requiring $50 pet rent).
If nothing else, list it in the description. You can write whatever you want there.
