Since she brake the lease and i was forced to find the tenant who did not meet my requirement and had a pet and i litteraly had three days to get the unit ready for the next tenant do i still owe her the pre move out?

Thank u for responding to my inquiry. We are in california

My tenant after signing the year lease decided to move out two months into the lease. I listed the house in worth time (december) and was able to find the tanant how ever the new tenant have a dog so i had to install fences in the backyard and that was the only tenant i was able to find in that time frame so she moved out on dec 27 and new tenant move in on dec 31. She text me on dec 27 asking for pre move out inspection; i went to the house and verbally told her the issues and since we only had two days to get the unit ready for next tenant i and contractor i hired started fixing things and barely made it ready by dec 31. She stop by and left one time on dec 28. She texted me on dec 31 at 3:30 pm asking for move out inspection!!! Which i text her back that its too late now. I send her the repair work that i was able to do in such a short timw and did not charge her for things i could not do in two days. Then she send me a letter treating to go to court unless i pay her back all the security deposit! What should i do? I did everything for her not to be responsible for single extra days when she brakes the lease and then she is taking advantage of it. She is also treating punitive Damage!
