Full refund if your letter doesn’t work
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.

* 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.
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.
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.
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.
When you receive a psychiatric service dog (PSD) or ESA letter from one of our world-class therapists, you can trust that it will work for you. If you encounter a problem, our customer service representatives are ready to help resolve any issues with your ESA housing request. And in the unlikely event that your letter still doesn’t meet your needs, you’ll get a full refund for our services.
