I am in California so the law here is a little different with a 30 day period and 2 therapy sessions but it was extremely worth it

"I would give my experience 10000/5 stars! I have already recommended your company to another friend. It was a straightforward no gimmicks service, and the doctor was genuinely concerned.

My new rescue cat Marston really appreciates that he is able to live with me now!

"They are five stars all the way! The site helped set me up with a professional therapist, who is licensed in my state. It was very easy to setup calls or opportunities to communicate with them that worked for both of us.

Most of all they allowed me to keep my cats Mew and Espurr. “

After considering my insurance lapse, I ended up exploring Pettable due to losing access to my previous therapist. The transition was initially met with a touch of skepticism, especially when learning my current therapist couldn’t provide the needed documentation after my coverage expired. However, Pettable turned out to be an effective solution during this frustrating gap.

Honestly, you guys were great. My situation was different and took some rearranging to get my mom an ESA letter, but your staff were excellent in helping me get it done. The only problem is I got charged twice for the letter which isn't surprising after all the changes your staff made for me. I'm hoping to get the duplicate reimbursed.

I made the choice to use Pettable's ESA services as I needed a new letter after moving. The process went smoothly, and the letter was delivered quickly, within 48 hours. I had a consultation with their therapist, who was very pleasant and asked insightful questions to ensure the letter was accurately tailored to my needs. Overall, the experience with Pettable was excellent and I would confidently recommend them.

The process to sign up with Pettable was really easy and I appreciate the money back guarantee! That provides a lot of peace of mind during a stressful move. The registered mental health provider I spoke to was AWFUL. I can't explain just how rude, aggressive, condescending and dismissive she was. That 5 minute phone call left me with a very negative impression of the whole process, unfortunately. I don't think that person is a good fit for a company trying to help people through sensitive topics or hard life events.

I filled up the stuff online and paid for my ESA application with Pettable. Then, I got an email giving me a date and time when I was going to be called. After that, I had the interview and talked to a person. I got the same person two years in a row, so he was aware of my situation. He greeted me and he remembered that I talked to him the year before which made me feel good. He asked all the right questions and was really concerned. It was almost like I went to their office and talked to him there or one of my other doctors. It was simple and quick. I told him that I have a second dog that I wanted to add to my account and he told me how to go in their website and add that. I'd have to pay it, then he would approve it. But I didn't understand how to do that on the website, so I never did it for my other dog. I didn't even follow through with it. I just feel fortunate enough to have one dog as an emotional support animal.

Blue and I are learning a lot! We are taking it slowly as he is a rescue and somewhat leery of new things. However, I am so proud of him! His trust in doing new things is building and twice he has done as asked the first time! The videos are wonderful and I love being able to go back and review as needed.

Why choose an ESA in Minnesota?

Minnesota law supports the use of Emotional Support Animals for individuals with mental or emotional disablities. With a valid ESA letter you can.

  • Live in housing with “no pets” policies without additional fees.
  • Have your ESA recognized as part of your mental health treatment.
  • Benefit from protections under the Fair Housing Act.

How to Get an ESA Letter in Minnesota Online

The process to obtain an ESA letter in Minnesota has become fairly simple with the availability of online telehealth services. You must first meet with a licensed mental health professional via a live consultation. If they determine that you are eligible for an emotional support animal, they can write you an official ESA letter. 

Completing this process through an online service, such as Pettable, can afford you the ease and convenience of receiving your emotional support animal letter without ever having to commute or wait in a long line for an in-person appointment.

ESA Laws in Minnesota

In most settings and situations, the laws in Minnesota specify that service animals must be allowed access to public places and services. Emotional support animals, however, are not required to be admitted to most places. Some establishments and services may still choose to accommodate, though, as long as you explain your situation and present a valid ESA letter. 


This is the case for access to most public establishments, including stores, restaurants, theaters, and your place of employment. If you want to take your emotional support animal to work or anywhere else with you, ask your boss or the head of the establishment if they can help you out. If they will not, you might be better off leaving your companion animal at home or visiting a pet-friendly place, instead. 


Recent amendments to the Air Carrier Access Act (ACAA) also no longer require airlines to accept emotional support animals. Ask the airline ahead of time if they might allow your ESA to fly in the cabin with you. If they will not, you could have your furry friend come along as a regular pet, or you might train them as a psychiatric service animal. 


When it comes to housing, the federal Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) and the Fair Housing Act (FHA) specify that housing providers must allow tenants to live with both service animals and emotional support animals. As long as you can provide your ESA letter, your landlord must make reasonable accommodation for you, regardless of their usual pet policy, pet fees, or breed or weight restrictions. 


Emotional Support Animals in Minnesota

The state of Minnesota recognizes that emotional support animals can boost well-being for people with an emotional or mental disability. Because an ESA can play a significant role to a mental health treatment plan, Minnesota has laws and policies in place to protect your rights to live anywhere with an emotional support animal, as long as you've obtained a valid ESA housing letter.


How Do You Qualify for an ESA in Minnesota? 

Qualifying for an emotional support animal in Minnesota means you are determined by a licensed mental health professional to have a qualifying emotional or mental disability. Further, you must have a disability-related need for the animal, in that it alleviates symptoms of your condition in some way, simply by providing a comforting presence.
