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. “

Pettable allowed me to streamline the process of obtaining an ESA letter quite efficiently. The process was straightforward and not stressful at all, taking only about two days from start to finish, including both the paperwork and the conversation with the therapist.

I was not pleased with your service. I never received a letter. The person I spoke was borderline rude. I would not recommend your service to anyone! I am disabled and cannot afford to pay $149 and not receive what I pay for. I will move into my new apartment September 2025 and do not have a pet letter.

Numerous studies demonstrate that the companionship between humans and dogs provides significant benefits for both species. Research indicates that dogs offer emotional support, reduce stress and anxiety, and even improve cardiovascular health in humans. Dogs can act as a source of social support, particularly during times of stress or loneliness, mirroring some aspects of human relationships according to a study published on Nature. With this information it's no wonder why dogs play such a vital role in some individuals lives! I have suffered from extreme bouts of anxiety and depression. Having my dogs around has done wonders for my mental health. This service is amazing, my esa letter came very quickly and my assigned therapist was extremely nice and helpful throughout. 10/10 would recommend!!!

Pettable was the company our apartment complex partnered with and I saw that the ESA was a service provided by them, so we went with it. We were paying a monthly through the apartment, but we won't be needing the services anymore since we've moved out.

I was needing an ESA letter for my pup for my apartment complex and learned about Pettable from a friend. The process of getting the ESA license was very simple. A representative called me and asked a few questions. The entire process took about a day or two. I found the customer support to be efficient and quick, which made the experience smooth. Overall, everything was straightforward, and I would definitely recommend Pettable to others for its simplicity and ease of use.

Super easy, the licensed mental health provider was super nice and compassionate. I have already recommended Pettable to my friends and family. My ESAs are what get me through each day and I am thankful to Pettable to help me keep them with me no matter where I live. While I had already paid the pet deposit on my current rental. When I move this will be very handy.

Having an emotional support animal allows me to stay calm, relaxed, and think about my decisions and actions before I do so. Pettable caught my eye and I felt it was the way to go. Their process wasn't difficult at all, just plugging in information here and there. They want you to be on board and help you out. They're enthusiastic and excited for you to be a part of their team.

Why choose an ESA in Tennessee?

Tennessee 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 Tennessee Online

The process of obtaining an emotional support animal (ESA) letter always begins with a consultation with a licensed mental health professional (LMHP) who is authorized to practice in your state. Thanks to the growth of online health platforms such as Pettable, the ESA approval process has become significantly easier and more convenient. You can meet with an LMHP from the comfort of your own home, and then obtain an ESA letter once they verify your eligibility.

ESA Laws in Tennessee

Public places such as shops, restaurants, and hotels are legally required to admit service animals alongside their owners. However, there is no obligation for them to accept emotional support animals – even those with valid ESA letters. This includes workplaces, as well as commercial airline flights (under the terms of the Air Carrier Access Act). If you would like to visit an establishment that is not overtly pet-friendly, your best option is to ask in advance whether they would be willing to admit your emotional support animal. If you can present a legitimate ESA letter to the person in charge, they may be more likely to accommodate you, although there is no guarantee of this. For air travel, be prepared for the airline to insist on treating your emotional support animal as a regular pet, subject to their usual fees and policies.

Thankfully, when it comes to housing, the federal Fair Housing Act (FHA) has ESA owners covered. As long as you have an official ESA letter, your housing provider must make reasonable accommodations for your emotional support animal to live with you. They are also prohibited from charging pet fees and imposing weight or breed restrictions on emotional support animals.

Emotional Support Animals in Tennessee

Anyone in Tennessee struggling with their mental health has the potential to qualify for an emotional support animal. Tennessee state law and federal law recognize the therapeutic value of assistance animals, and protect the rights of ESA owners to equal access to housing.

How Do You Qualify for an ESA in Tennessee?

If a licensed mental health professional determines that you have an emotional disability or mental health condition, they can confirm your eligibility for an emotional support animal. Your LMHP can make an emotional support animal a component of your mental health treatment plan and issue you an ESA letter to make it official.
