Pet Screeningpet • no pet • animaldigital profile
We understand that a pet plays a significant part in many
people’s lives, so we strive to allow most animals in most of
our rental properties.
A welcoming environment is paramount to all of our residents. To help ensure ALL of our residents understand our pet and animal-related policies, we use a third-party screening service and require everyone to complete a pet profile, a “no pet” profile, or request accommodation for an assistance animal.
This process ensures we have formalized pet and animal-related policy acknowledgments and more accurate records to create greater mutual accountability.
Rice Real Estate, LLC and our third party screening company follow the Fair Housing Act (FHAct) guidelines on reasonable housing accommodation requests for assistance animals.
Animals are cute.
Fraudulent ESA applications aren't.

Pet Fees:
Unauthorized Pet or Animal Fine $1000.
Authorized pets will be charged fees based on a FIDO Score for each pet. The FIDO Score is an algorithmic number that measures the housing-related risk of each pet and its owner. The 1-through-5 paw score is based upon numerous risk factors and data points.
FIDO Score | Monthly Fee | Pet Acceptance Fee | Refundable Deposit | |
5 paw | $15 | $100 | $300 | |
4 paw | $20 | $100 | $300+ | |
3 paw | $35 | $150 | $500+ | |
2 paw | $75 | $250 | $750+ | |
1 paw | $100 | $300 | $1000+ | |
+Individual deeded property Owners may have additional restrictions above and beyond the FIDO score pricing notification.
Please note in the State of Nevada, landlord insurance companies can restrict coverage for animals with an aggressive past or bite history. In those scenarios, assume your application to rent will be denied without explicit approval in advance from the property owner or their insurance company
Petscreening.com has a proprietary system for giving the paw rating so you would have to reach out to them for more information. However, usually the issue is when an applicant does not answer each question, or does not specifically type out each vaccine and only uploads the photo of the records.
