Often there are. Pet rent, one-time fees, and deposits can vary by building and sometimes by pet type. Use the building details and then ask for the full fee schedule for the exact apartment you want.

Use Openigloo to shortlist and compare buildings, but verify directly. The building’s own leasing office is the source of truth for the current pet policy, fees, and paperwork requirements.
