What Tampa Pet Owners Actually Pay

One ESA Letter Florida eliminates all of it.

Renting in Tampa with a pet

$900+per year

  • Pet deposit: $300-500 upfront
  • Pet rent: $25-50/month
  • Breed restrictions: Set by the property, not the city. Tampa's large apartment communities typically attach a restricted-breed list and a weight cap to the lease, and a valid ESA letter overrides both.
