A pet lease amendment allows a tenant to have a pet on the property. The landlord may limit the pets to certain types (i.e. only small dogs and cats). In addition, a landlord may accept a fee or deposit on the pet. If the fee is refundable, it will be credited against any type of damage on the property caused by the pet.
Tenant’s Responsibility
Any damage to the property or injury caused by the pet is the sole liability of the tenant.
