I never had to pay pet rent until maybe 5 years ago. I've always had the nonrefundable pet deposits. I think we paid $600 here for the pet deposit, but I honestly can't remember off the top of my head - it may have been more like $800. They cut me a "deal"
only making me pay $60/month in pet rent for my girls. It seems extreme they need an extra $720 per year on top of the nonrefundable deposits plus the typical security deposit. I'm finding a lot of places call themselves pet friendy, but what that really means is they will allow dogs - they aren't pet friendly at all. There are so many common areas Rory and Lane aren't allowed in - they can't even come in the front office to pick up packages with me. It really bugs me. I can't wait until we decide where we want to settle down and finally buy a house!
