Yes a landlord can ask for pet shot records. It is heir job to make sure that the shots are current in case your dog ever gets out and bites someone, plus they have to ask it.

How can you get a pet in your apartment?
Ask the landlord (owner of the house) nicely ;-)
Can a landlord of a pet friendly apartment after four years of tenancy ask you for a pet deposit but not others who have pets in the building?
Yes, they can.
Can a landlord ask for a deposit after I have been renting from him more than 3 years?
If you have a pet and have lived in an residence for four years, the landlord may be entitled to a pet deposit. Your residence is not permanent: you are a tenant, and your pet can cause damage, because it's an animal. One day, when you move out, the landlord needs to prepare the residence for a new tenant. Your landlord may be a little tardy in asking for a deposit. You may be able to negotiate the deposit if you bring your landlord into your residence and show that after four years, there is no pet damage. Your landlord may counter that your pet could damage the residence in the future, and the landlord would be correct. Finally, when you do move out, at least your landlord may want to remove trace evidence of a pet having lived in the residence, including dander, pet hair, aquarium damage, and so forth. Your pet deposit would cover this expense.
My lease states no pets allowed but landlord agreed to let another tenant get pets?
Ask the landlord if you can get pet because a neighbor got pets, and hold a good argument.
Do you need a shot to have a pet?
No. No shot needed to get a pet.
Can a landlord charge a pet deposit for a animal in a tank?
I'm no lawyer but... If a landlord may charge a pet deposit at all, then surely they can change it for an animal in a tank.
What is the legal description of a pet for landlord tenant act purposes?
A pet is any animal which is not a service animal.
What does the ADA say about privately owned homes being rented that are not animal friendly?
Generally if the landlord owns more than four units for rental (houses, apartments, any type of dwelling) then he is subject to ADA laws and must abide by them. Any landlord has the right to make his rental units non-animal friendly and ADA has nothing to do with this, EXCEPT service animals. If a landlord doesn't permit any kind of animals then he must make an exception his rules in order to permit service animals. The only question the landlord may ask about the service animal is what it does to assist the disabled. He may not ask about the disability itself. And the landlord may not charge pet fees or other pet deposits and charges for service animals EXCEPT DAMAGES done by a service animal. If the service animal is disruptive (barks excessively, is agressive, etc.) the landlord may have the right to exclude it.
Your dog stays in a kennel outdoors should you have to pay a pet fee to your landlord?
Pet fees or deposits are common in rental agreements. This protects the landlord from suits that may arise from the animal. It is usually up to the landlord if he wishes to charge a fee for pets. The dog is on the property regardless of being kept outside or not.
Will a landlord's homeowners insurance increase if you buy a dog that is not considered a high risk breed?
The landlord can ask for a damage deposit when you get your pet. This is fair and covers any possible damage the dog may do. If your dog doesn't do any damage you are entitled to the damage deposit back when you move. Many motels and hotels in Canada and the U.S. ask for a deposit of up to $50 or more if you bring along a pet. In the morning when you are paying your bill they will have one of their employees inspect the room and if all is well you get your $50 back. Marcy
Can a landlord charge a pet deposit fee if there is no carpet on the premises?
Yes they can charge pet deposit even if there are no carpets. They still pee on floors, and on walls
If a previous tenant owed a pet does the landlord have to replace the carpet?
Not necessarily: he can have the carpet professionally cleaned.
