Frequently Asked Questions

Get answers to common questions about ESA letters and our process.

What is an ESA letter and do I really need one?+

An ESA letter is a document from a licensed mental health professional that verifies you have a mental or emotional disability and that your pet provides therapeutic benefit. It's required to exercise your rights under the Fair Housing Act.

How long does the process take?+

Most clients receive their ESA letter within 24-48 hours after their consultation. The consultation itself can often be scheduled within a few hours of completing your assessment.

Is this service legitimate?+

Yes! We connect you with real, state-licensed mental health professionals. Every letter is compliant with Fair Housing Act guidelines and includes the therapist's license number.

What if my landlord denies my ESA?+

Landlords cannot legally deny a legitimate ESA request under the Fair Housing Act (with few exceptions). We provide landlord support to help educate property managers.

Can I use my ESA letter for air travel?+

As of 2021, airlines are no longer required to accommodate ESAs in the cabin. Your ESA letter still protects your housing rights. For travel, consider a Psychiatric Service Dog (PSD) evaluation.
