Cooper has helped me so much. i was nervous to leave the house or be home alone. i struggled with severe anxiety and having someone else rely on me has helped me over come my anxious thoughts and focus elsewhere on my little buddy. we have grown so much closer and educating him the rules of the house has taught me how important he feels to me.

Parent of Coconut

Waggy’s ESA service is amazing! Without a letter of recommendation I wouldn’t have been able to get the super smiley girl in the middle! I’m lucky enough to be able to take her to work with me every day and she fits in amazingly with our little family. We got her from a rescue, so we know she’s happier too!

Samantha D.imgVerified Customer

Parent of Winnie The Poodle

Winnie is like a living teddy bear. Every day she makes me laugh and encourages a healthy and active life style (whilst always enjoying a good old fashioned nap in the middle of the day). She brings both joy and routine and is, as promised when I first got a dog, my best friend.

B

Ben J.imgVerified Customer

Parent of Mobi

Mobi has helped me feel more comfortable inside and outside of my home. He has been a great friend who has been one of the greatest pick-me-ups I have ever had in my bad times. He has helped me live a better, happier, and more social life. Without Waggy's support to keep him with me at all times I have never felt more cared for.

Kai O.imgVerified Customer

Parent of Mila

Waggy made it possible for Miso to go everywhere with me! I take her to class, work, and just about everywhere else!

Carol B.imgVerified Customer

Parent of Nala

Nala has been my greatest companion. I had issues finding housing because of “aggresssive breed” restrictions and was denied 7x. When all hope was lost I applied my little girl as an ESA and by law she could not be denied. She is the most loving dog and her breed’s reputation should not keep her from living a good life. I’m so thankful for Waggy!

B

Briana G.imgVerified Customer

Parent of Buddy

I am so happy one of my friends told me about this (Waggy) great service. I have always had anxiety and Buddy is great at calming my nerves. When I found out about ESA i was so relieved. I love having a travel buddy everywhere I go!

Rainelle H.imgVerified Customer

Parent of Sir O'Tonin

Sir O'Tonin (Tonin) has been the biggest help for my anxiety and depression. He gets me motivated to get up and out. We take long walks and play at the park.

Christalen T.imgVerified Customer

Parent of Farley

I made a huge move across the country to a place where I had no one except my cat, Farley. He helped me get through the roughest, loneliest part of this move. He cuddled with me on the days that I couldn’t lift my heart out of bed. His desire to explore outside helped me find that desire too. I wouldn’t have made it here without him. He’s the best!

Anna H.imgVerified Customer

Parent of Medussa

Being able to provide a safe home for our pet has made a safe home for us. She brings joy into our lives and that’s irreplacable. Without the ESA certification, none of this would’ve been PAWSibble!

Trusted by 250,000 Satisfied Clients

Can I get an ESA letter or disability assessment by taking an online test or survey, or do I need an in-person or phone session with a licensed provider?

Yes, an Emotional Support Animal (ESA) letter or recommendation can be issued based on a professional psychological assessment conducted online. Our licensed healthcare providers utilize validated tools such as the DSM-5 Type I and II Symptom Cross-Cutting Measures, developed by the American Psychiatric Association, and the World Health Organization’s WHODAS 2.0.

It is increasingly common across various areas of telehealth to provide clinical assessments and even formal diagnoses without requiring in-person or video sessions. For example, platforms offering ADHD evaluations (ADHD Online) and weight loss drug prescriptions (Zappy Health) often rely on online questionnaires and surveys without any face-to-face or telephone interaction.

Similarly, for ESA letters, federal law does not require a formal psychological diagnosis or ongoing treatment from a licensed provider. Instead, a provider may issue an ESA recommendation based on established psychological assessment tools that are widely accepted in the mental health field.
We have issued over 250,000 ESA letters, with an acceptance rate exceeding 96%
