I prefer tenants with pets. I make my houses pet friendly. I get a non refundable  pet fee. I don't charge pet rent. That seems silly to me.

Tenants with pets stay longer and seem to be more responsible people.

Humans tear up houses not pets, at least that is my experience.

Dogs $100 monthly

Cats $50 monthly (& I like them way less)

Smokers, (& vape) outside only. Break the rule? Hit the road. The very. First. Time.

2nd chances are earned. I make this extremely clear up front that if they smoke inside I’m evicting. And I point out that -30*C SUCKS to stand outside and smoke.... and they’re still doing it if they want to live here. Their choice is follow the rules or pack their stuff and move in January when it’s -30*C and have no landlord reference (or a poor one) and a court ordered eviction on their record. And that’s exactly how it’s explained BEFORE they move in.
