I'm becoming a landlord myself, my son has decided to move with us to High River, so now I have to rent the house to someone else.
I will be a pet friendly landlord. However, I am charging a one time non refundable pet deposit of 150 dollars.
The reason I am doing this, is because no matter how responsible someone is, accidents can happen. It will also help with the cost of having professional carpet cleaners and such to clean if the tenant vacates.
I have a neighbor, who just aquired her daughters dog, she can't have him at the house she rents now. To help her out I've dropped the rent to 1400 including water from 1600.
I figure if she will put herself at risk of being evicted to save a dogs life, her daughter was going to "euth" him because the place she rented won't allow pets either, then she is exactly the type of tenant I want. She also has 2 cats.
She has no issue paying the pet fee of 150, and said she would do the same if she were in the position.
