Clinical team

Evaluated by a Clinician Licensed in Your State

This is not a generic, instant ESA letter service. Every approved letter is based on a genuine clinical evaluation, personally signed on professional letterhead, and confirms the clinician’s personal knowledge of your need and eligibility.

The letter you get from us is the same letter I’d write for a patient in my private practice. My letterhead, my license number, my signature.

For the right person, an emotional support animal isn’t a luxury. It’s a clinically appropriate part of feeling safe at home.

If a request doesn’t meet the clinical bar, we say no. That’s the reason landlords trust the letters we do approve.

My landlord waived everything that same day.

My building wouldn’t allow pit bulls and wanted a $500 upfront, non-refundable pet fee plus $75/month pet rent. I sent my ESA letter and the leasing office waived everything that same day. Bailey and I have been here a year now.

Breed ban and pet rent. Both gone.

My building wouldn’t allow my dog’s breed and wanted a $500 deposit plus monthly pet rent. I sent my ESA letter and the restriction and fees were dropped. We’ve been in our home ever since.

A no pet building said yes.

The listing said no pets. I submitted my ESA letter with the reasonable accommodation request and they approved us within a week. No deposit. No monthly pet rent. Just a home for both of us.

They dropped the deposit overnight.

We were looking at $400 down plus $50 a month. I emailed my ESA letter that evening and by morning the leasing office wrote back: fees waived. Max stays with me, no arguments.

Money-back guarantee
Common questions

Everything you need to know

Is the 4-hour delivery really realistic?

Yes. Once you complete your assessment and a state-licensed clinician approves your letter, we deliver in 4 hours. Submit before 10pm your local time on a business day for the fastest turnaround.

Will my landlord accept it?

Under the federal Fair Housing Act, qualified ESA owners are entitled to live with their emotional support animal in most housing, including buildings with no-pet policies, without pet fees, deposits, or breed and weight restrictions. Every letter is FHA-compliant and signed by a state-licensed clinician with their license number.

What if my clinician doesn’t approve me?

You get a full refund. The money-back guarantee covers the clinical evaluation: if a state-licensed clinician determines, based on your evaluation, that an emotional support animal is not appropriate for your condition, you will receive a full refund.

What if my landlord rejects the letter anyway?

Add Landlord Rejection Protection at checkout for $30. It covers refund support and acceptance escalation if a landlord unlawfully rejects a properly issued ESA letter.

Can my dog fly in-cabin with me?

If you qualify for our ESA Plus plan, your dog can also qualify as a Psychiatric Service Dog under the Air Carrier Access Act (ACAA). That means flying in-cabin at no additional charge, no carrier required, no breed bans.
