Frequently Asked Questions

What is the difference between an ESA and a Service Dog?

A Service Dog is trained to perform specific tasks for a disability. An Emotional Support Animal (ESA) provides comfort through presence. ESAs have housing rights, while Service Dogs have public access rights.

Do I qualify for a Psychiatric Service Dog?

You may qualify if you have a diagnosed mental health disability and the dog is trained to perform a task that aids that disability.

Can a landlord deny my ESA?

Under the Fair Housing Act, landlords generally cannot deny an ESA or charge pet fees, even in "no-pet" buildings, provided you have a valid letter from a licensed healthcare professional. Exceptions exist for owner-occupied buildings with 4 or fewer units.

Do I need to "register" my dog online?

No. There is no official government registry for ESAs or Service Dogs. Websites selling "ID cards" or "Registration Certificates" generally hold no legal weight. The only legally recognized document for housing is a letter signed by a licensed mental health professional (LMHP).

Can I fly with my ESA?

As of recent DOT rule changes, airlines are no longer required to accept ESAs in the cabin for free. However, Psychiatric Service Dogs (PSDs) are treated as service animals and are allowed to fly in the cabin free of charge if they are task-trained and well-behaved.
