# Pet fee

A pet fee is a one-time charge to bring a pet. Centro charges $250, for up to two pets.

A pet fee is a one-time charge for moving a pet into your home. Unlike a deposit, a pet fee is usually not returned. It covers the cost of pet-related wear and administration.

Do not confuse it with the other two pet charges. The [pet deposit](https://centro.multisites.ai/glossary/pet-deposit) is held against damage. [Pet rent](https://centro.multisites.ai/glossary/pet-rent) is paid every month.

Centro Studio Homes publishes these pet costs, with up to 2 pets allowed:

-   Pet deposit: $150
-   Pet fee: $250, one time
-   Pet rent: $25 a month

Centro lists no weight limit. Breed restrictions do apply.

Example for one pet at a $699 studio. At move-in you pay $150 (deposit) and $250 (fee), which is $400. Each month you pay $699 plus $25, which is $724. Two pets would double the pet charges if they are per pet. Ask the office to confirm.

Over a 12-month term, one pet adds $250 + $300 = $550 in fee and rent, plus the $150 deposit.
