pet deposit

Landlord's furry surcharge

A pet deposit is a refundable sum paid by a renter to a landlord to cover potential damage caused by pets.

It's separate from the standard security deposit and typically ranges from a few hundred dollars to a full month's rent.

The apartment complex requires a $300 pet deposit for dogs.

Unlike a pet fee, which is non-refundable, a pet deposit should be returned if no pet-related damage occurs.
