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.
To obtain an official ESA letter in Massachusetts, you must first have a live consultation with a licensed mental health professional (LMHP) who can practice in your state. Should they determine you qualify for an emotional support animal, they will write you an ESA letter.
With the availability of technology and telehealth services, completing this process online – without the hassles of waiting in traffic and long lines – has never been easier. Connect with one of our mental health professionals licensed in Massachusetts today!

* For Arkansas, California, Iowa, Louisiana and Montana residents, new laws requires those seeking an ESA letter to establish a client-provider relationship with the individual for at least 30 days prior to providing documentation, which will result in having two consultations before qualifying.
Massachusetts is aware of the benefits an emotional support animal can provide to a person with an emotional or mental disability. The state is accommodating to these individuals, protecting their rights to live anywhere with their emotional support animal, as long as they have an official ESA letter for housing.
According to the federal Fair Housing Act (FHA), Massachusetts residents can live just about anywhere with their emotional support animal (or other assistance animal). These laws state that any housing provider must make reasonable accommodation for a current or potential tenant to live with their assistance animal, as long as they can provide a valid ESA letter. This is the case even if the landlord typically has a no-pets policy. They also cannot impose any additional fees or breed or weight restrictions on the individual.
Travel laws concerning emotional support animals have undergone some recent changes. With updates to the Air Carrier Access Act (ACAA), emotional support animals are no longer required to be accepted in the cabin of a flight (though service animals still have this protection). If you'd like to fly with your emotional support animal, check with the airline ahead of time and see if they might accommodate them. If not, you can have your support animal fly with you in the cabin in a carrier, as any regular pet would, or you might consider having them trained as a psychiatric service animal.
Massachusetts state law and federal law do not specify any requirement for employers to allow employees to bring their emotional support animals to work. While they must admit trained service dogs, when it comes to ESAs, the decision is at the discretion of the employer. Bring your ESA letter and ask your HR department if they might choose to accommodate you.
While service animals must be admitted in virtually all public places, emotional support animals do not share these rights. You can always bring along your ESA letter and ask an establishment if they will recognize emotional support animals and allow you to enter with yours. Otherwise, it may be best to leave your emotional support animal at home or stick to places that are already pet-friendly.
Get Your ESA LetterTo qualify for an emotional support animal in Massachusetts, you must have a mental health condition and symptoms that are alleviated by the comforting presence of a companion animal. Only a licensed mental health professional can determine if you have a qualifying condition.
Meeting with a Massachusetts LMHP through a telehealth marketplace, such as Pettable, is one of the most convenient ways you can find out if you are eligible for an emotional support animal and obtain an ESA letter.
