How much pet fee per pet?

Catherine Javier

Hi everyone!

An interested tenant wants to lease our furnished home. 3 dogs and 4th is an ESA. Based on experience, we usually have 1 dog/family or tenant. 

How much is a reasonable non refundable pet fee? Usually we charge $150/month Based on comps. 
and it should be per pet, i am assuming. (For a midterm stay)

I am not sure if this matters, they’re Mutts and American bully.

and just in case they want to do a long term route, how much is the reasonable charge?


thanks everyone!

I make all mine pet friendly and don’t charge for pet fees or pet deposit. I just ask market rate and keep it high. It’s less of a headache and so far I’ve never had an issue.
