Can, but dont necessarily do. That's what the pet deposit is supposed to cover.
"Pet rent" is just a gouge.
There's almost no tenants rights laws in most of America. Gouging for every last little necessity is very standard. In fact, most places will try to charge you to apply to rent the place, and will try to refuse to show you the full lease terms until you pay for that. I've chosen not to rent many places just because they didn't want to show me the full terms before I gave them $25 for an application fee.
$25 may not be that much, as they always say, but usually I'm looking at 20+ apartments. That shit adds up fast.
