You may not have to. With an ESA letter from a licensed healthcare professional, many housing providers must consider accommodations, and pet fees or deposits may not apply.
Free to check. About 2 minutes. Not approved? Full refund.
An ESA letter changes the category your pet is in. Not a pet. An emotional support animal, recognized in a letter from a licensed healthcare professional. Most housing situations that would otherwise restrict pets may have to consider accommodating an ESA. Most pet fees and deposits may not apply.
I was a little skeptical about how an ESA letter would nullify my pet deposit and fees in my new apartment, but it did! No monthly fees and no deposits, which saved me hundreds! Experience is fast and I highly recommend if you're considering an ESA for travel and housing.
You answer questions about your situation. A licensed healthcare professional in your state reviews them. Not everyone qualifies, and that is exactly why these letters carry weight.
Your letter includes the clinician's license number and signature. It is the kind of document a property manager can verify through the state licensing board, which is what separates it from the instant certificates sold online.
Housing law treats emotional support animals differently from pets. The Fair Housing Act applies to most housing in the United States, including apartments, condos, and rental homes, with a few limited exceptions. Most housing situations that would otherwise restrict pets may have to consider accommodating an ESA, even in buildings with no-pet policies.
Answer a few questions. About 2 minutes, one question at a time.
A licensed healthcare professional in your state reviews your answers.
If clinically approved, your ESA letter arrives digitally in as soon as 24-48 hours.*
*Montana, Iowa & California residents: Due to state-specific licensing requirements, ESA documentation is issued as early as 30 days after your initial assessment.
Most of the time, they do not. When a housing provider has questions, our support team helps you respond: a Landlord Request Letter with the additional detail screening services typically look for, and help completing any custom form your property manager requires. And your letter carries your clinician's license number, verifiable through the state licensing board.
If your ESA is not approved by a licensed clinician, you will receive a 100% refund, including any evaluation fees.
Once documentation has been issued, no refunds are provided unless required by law. Read the full refund policy
