Tyler Howell Can I Charge a Pet Deposit For a Service Animal?

They are a medical device, basically.I know it's a weird concept, but there you have it.However, if the animal misbehaves, you can kick the tenant out over it - they still have to follow the rules for cleaning up after pets, and if it causes damage, you can charge them for damage, if it barks incessantly, you can kick them out for noise, etc.But, you can't charge them any pet related fees, other than for actual damage after-the fact.

Rick Colquhoun Service Dogs...are they "pets"?

Another example of a reasonable accommodation would be if they are in a wheelchair and they need an assigned parking spot close to their apartment, or a bar installed in the bathroom to help them get in and out of the tub.So, you can't charge them anything for the service animal, because they are not a "pet" they are a medical device, basically.You do not have to accept an animal that would create a financial hardship - for instance if it was a pit bull and you would lose your insurance if you had a pitbull on the property.
