ESA Letter US connects you with licensed mental health professionals in your state for legitimate emotional support animal and psychiatric service dog letters. Complete a short assessment online, speak with a clinician, and receive a signed letter that landlords are required to honor under federal law.
No charge until a licensed clinician reviews your assessment.
Plenty of websites will sell you a certificate or an ID card in five minutes. Landlords ignore those, and for good reason. Under the Fair Housing Act, the only document that protects you is a letter from a licensed mental health professional who has actually evaluated you. That is the only thing we do, and we do it properly.
Your letter is signed by a professional licensed where you live, with a license number a landlord can verify.
Complete your assessment in the morning and a clinician can usually review it the same day. Most letters arrive within 24 hours of approval.
Phone, email, and message support from a team that has walked thousands of tenants through the landlord conversation.
If a clinician decides an ESA is not appropriate for you, you receive a full refund. If a landlord raises a valid objection, we work it until it is resolved.
Three steps stand between you and a letter your landlord has to take seriously. Most clients finish the first step in under ten minutes.
Answer a confidential questionnaire about your daily life, your emotional health, and the role your animal plays in it. It takes about eight minutes and everything you share is protected.
A mental health professional licensed in your state reviews your assessment and completes the evaluation, by phone or video where your state requires it. This is a genuine clinical review, not a rubber stamp.
Approved clients receive a signed letter on the clinician's letterhead, usually within 24 hours. It includes the license details a landlord needs to verify it, and a printed copy can be mailed on request.
Both letters come from licensed clinicians, but they serve different purposes under different federal laws. If you are not sure, start the assessment and your clinician will guide you to the right one.
The Fair Housing Act requires landlords to make reasonable accommodations for tenants with emotional support animals, even in buildings that ban pets entirely. With a valid ESA letter, your landlord cannot charge pet fees, enforce breed bans against your animal, or refuse your application because of your ESA.
One price covers your assessment, your clinical evaluation, your signed letter, and our support through the landlord conversation. You are only charged if you choose to proceed after qualifying.

Thousands of tenants, travelers, and families have used ESA Letter US to keep their animals with them. Here is what a few of them told us afterward.
"My building has a strict no pet policy and I was terrified of losing my apartment over my cat. The clinician was kind and thorough, the letter arrived the next morning, and my property manager accepted it without a single follow up question."
"I tried one of those instant certificate sites first and my landlord laughed at it. ESA Letter US was completely different. A real evaluation, a real license number, and a letter my leasing office verified in a day. Worth every dollar."
"The support team walked me through exactly what to say when my landlord pushed back. They even sent a follow up explaining the law. My deposit was refunded and my dog stayed. I cannot recommend them enough."
"Fast, professional, and honest. They told me upfront that approval was up to the clinician, which actually made me trust them more. I was approved, and the pet rent I no longer pay covered the letter within two months."
"I got a PSD letter for my trained golden retriever and flew with her in the cabin two weeks later. The documentation matched exactly what the airline asked for. Smooth from start to finish."
"Renewal was painless. One short check in with the clinician and my updated letter arrived the same evening. This is the second year my apartment complex has accepted it without question."
