Don't rent to either. I wouldn't let people tie up their dog in my backyard, let alone have it running around free in my house. That's crazy. "No pets" should be the first thing people read on your ad. In this market, there's no need to subject your property to the extra and unnecessary wear and tear. I guess you could charge an extra $500 per month, but even that may not cover all your costs when you consider having to tear up your sod to repair the damage back there, messed up flooring, messed up walls, general stench, etc.
