How much extra do you charge for pets?

[Charles Patterson]

If you allow pets in your rentals, and your state allows you to asses an extra pet rent amount... how much do you charge?

We allow up to 2 animals, and all dogs must be licensed and releases signed so that we can contact vet to get shot records and such.  Also we have to meet the dogs as well.

We charge an extra $250-350 per animal (depending on size and area of rental).
Cats and Small dogs (lt 15 lbs) = +$25 / month
Medium dogs (15 - 25 lbs) = +$30 / month
Large dogs (gt 25 lbs) = +$35 / month

So... what do you charge and why?  Do you find larger or smaller dogs to be better on your properties?
