Question 1

Is an ESA the same as a Service Dog?

Accepted Answer

No. While both provide support, ESAs are protected primarily for housing, whereas Psychiatric Service Dogs (PSDs) have broader public access rights under the ADA.

Question 2

Do I need to register my ESA?

Accepted Answer

No. ESA Registration is not a legal requirement. A signed letter from a licensed therapist in your state is the only document recognized by HUD.

Question 3

How much is an ESA housing letter?

Accepted Answer

PetCerts offers an official ESA housing letter for $95 per year from a licensed therapist in your state. A housing bundle with physical copy and verification support is $139.

Question 4

Is an ESA letter legal for housing?

Accepted Answer

Yes, if it is issued by a licensed mental health professional after an evaluation. HUD and FHA recognize the clinician letter—not an online registry.

Question 5

How fast can I get the letter?

Accepted Answer

Many approvals are delivered in as little as 24 hours after your evaluation is completed and approved by the LMHP.

Question 6

Who signs the PetCerts ESA letter?

Accepted Answer

A Licensed Mental Health Professional (LMHP) in our network who is authorized to practice in your state—such as clinicians in the PetCerts LMHP network including Andrea Slaughter (Virtue Inside Psychological Services, TX license #36031).
