Why 30 days? California law (AB 468) requires a provider to have a client relationship with you for at least 30 days before issuing an ESA letter for a dog. We follow this so your letter holds up with California landlords.

Common questions

When is my card charged?

At signup we only place a temporary authorization. Your card is charged after a licensed therapist approves your letter.

What happens if I'm not approved?

We release the authorization and you pay nothing. Some banks take a few business days to remove the hold from your statement.

Why can't I get my California ESA letter the same day?

California law requires at least a 30-day client relationship before an ESA letter for a dog can be issued, plus a clinical evaluation. Letters issued faster may not be accepted by California landlords.

What's the difference between an ESA and a PSD letter?

An ESA letter is for housing, so you can live with your emotional support animals. A PSD letter is for dogs trained to perform tasks related to a mental health condition, which can accompany you in public places under the ADA.

Can I cover more than one animal?

Yes. Choose the number of animals in your plan and all of them are included for one flat price.
