Answer a few questions about your ESA needs
Many Texans struggle with mental health challenges and seek out the comfort of an emotional support animal. At Pettable we can connect you with compassionate mental health professionals to write you legitimate ESA letters, ensuring you are never seperated from your support animal.
Let's get you the support you deserve.
Emotional support animals (ESA) help their owners through a wide range of mental and emotional health disabilities. Their presence and companionship have many therapeutic benefits, mitigating symptoms like loneliness, depression, and anxiety. Official ESA letters can bolster the legitimacy of ESAs and allow owners to access fair housing rights.
These letters can be obtained through Pettable. We can connect you to a licensed practitioner in Kentucky who can write an official ESA letter after you meet with them via an online consultation.

Emotional support animals, or ESAs, provide support for mental health conditions simply by being present and do not require specific training. ESAs are protected throughout The United States under federal law and are recognized as a necessary form of treatment for people's mental health. As a result of this protection, emotional support animals verified through an ESA letter are allowed to stay in any private housing, exempt from "no pet" policies or pet housing fees.
In Kentucky, you can get an ESA letter to confirm your need for an emotional support animal by speaking with a mental health professional licensed in Kentucky. The federal protections for ESAs are recognized within Kentucky, meaning that if you have an ESA letter you will be protected within the state.
Kentucky does not specifically recognize ESAs in any state legislature. In terms of public access laws, they are regarded as pets rather than medical assistance animals. However, they are recognized when it comes to housing rights under the Fair Housing Act. This means that housing providers cannot discriminate against them and deny them living with their owners, even if apartments have a no-pet policy.
When it comes to travel, they are unfortunately regarded as pets rather than medical aids. While the Department of Transportation’s (DOT) Air Carrier Access Act (ACAA) once recognized the rights of owners traveling with ESAs this changed in 2021. It is now up to the discretion of the specific airline and many of them now regard ESAs as pets. This means that they are subject to the same pet tariffs and size or weight restrictions as pets.
As per the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA), all service animals and psychiatric service dogs (PSD) have public access rights, as well as rights to travel with owners on public transport and planes.
Kentucky law operates under federal law, recognizing the rights of ESAs in relation to housing. Under the FHA, housing providers must make reasonable accommodations for tenants with ESAs provided that they do not pose any harm to the building or other tenants.
As a general rule, tenants should provide landlords with an official ESA letter from a licensed mental health practitioner (LMHP) in their home state.
Anyone with a recognized mental or emotional health disability qualifies for an ESA. To get legitimate recognition in the form of an ESA letter, it is important to book a consultation with a qualified mental health practitioner in your home state. This could be a doctor, a counselor, a psychologist, a psychiatrist, or any other qualified medical professional. During the consultation, the patient details their mental or emotional health disability and explains how their ESA brings therapeutic benefit.
The therapist will confirm that the patient needs an ESA and write them a letter stating so. ESA letters are often seen as medical prescriptions, highlighting that the animal’s presence assists a medical condition.
Emotional support animals have many benefits to their owners, offering love, affection, security, and support.
The presence of ESAs is incredibly calming and has been shown to significantly reduce stress levels while promoting emotional well-being. ESAs add huge value in many ways since they provide a positive routine, give their owners a sense of purpose, and offer unconditional love.
An emotional support animal (ESA) can help you save on pet housing fees because landlords and housing providers must accommodate ESAs under laws that protect individuals with disabilities, often without charging extra pet fees. By having an ESA, individuals can ensure their animal companion is accepted in housing that might otherwise impose restrictions or additional costs on pet ownership.
ESAs are companion animals and much like family. They provide social support by reducing feelings of loneliness and enhancing emotional and physical connection.
Psychiatric service dogs (PSDs) differ from ESAs under law and are regarded as working service animals. As per the ADA, they are individually trained to perform specific functions related to disabilities. They might provide tactile stimulation when their owner is having a panic attack, remind an owner with anxiety to take their medication or wake an owner from a nightmare.
Any dog can be trained to be a PSD, including existing pet dogs or new dogs from shelters or reputable breeders.
