FAQ
Are Petcerts letters legitimate?
Petcerts letters are written and signed by licensed mental health professionals after a real assessment, following the format housing providers expect. A letter is issued only if your clinician determines you qualify.
How long does it take to get an ESA letter from PetCerts?
After you finish the assessment, it goes to your assigned licensed clinician. Letters are delivered in as little as 24 hours after clinician approval, or 12 hours with the +$25 add-on. Some states, such as Arkansas, California, Louisiana and Montana, require a client-provider relationship of at least 30 days before a letter can be issued.
Do landlords have to accept a PetCerts ESA letter?
Under the Fair Housing Act, most housing providers must consider a reasonable accommodation request supported by a valid ESA letter from a licensed clinician, though some housing is exempt. Each housing provider reviews each request, and a letter does not guarantee any particular outcome. If your landlord has questions, PetCerts can verify your letter on request.
Can I use an ESA letter to fly with my pet?
No. Under U.S. DOT rules, airlines are not required to accept emotional support animals, and an ESA letter does not cover air travel. For a trained psychiatric service dog, PetCerts offers a PSD Transportation Letter ($159 per year) and a PSD Housing & Travel Letter ($199 per year), though U.S. airlines use the DOT service animal form and can't require a clinician letter.
If your licensed clinician determines you don't qualify, you get a full refund, including tax. Refunds are automatic to your original payment method within 5–10 business days of the clinician's decision.
