Pet deposits/fees & service/ESA animals in Kentucky
A tenant with an approved assistance animal cannot be charged a pet fee, pet deposit or extra rent for it. The tenant is still responsible for damage if other residents with pets are. If the need isn't obvious, the landlord may ask for reliable documentation of the disability-related need.
