Priscilla V.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 Louis Vuitton

Louis Vuitton is my best friend. His tail wags so much when he’s over excited that his entire body shakes, which is my favorite sight in the world. Because of Waggy, Louis is able to live with me in my one bedroom apartment. This is my first year out of the house and all alone which can be scary sometimes. He cares for me more than i care for him.

Rachel B.imgVerified Customer

Parent of Quavo

I was getting letters from my landlord saying that Quavo was getting too big to live in my apartment. It hurt my heart so much to think about giving him away . When I found out about ESA laws I found Waggy and my life was saved. My stress melted away as the letters from my landlord stopped showing up at my door. Plus you’re affordable. 1000 stars

Evan N.imgVerified Customer

Parent of Anya

People say “I have a rescue” but in our home I say “Anya rescued me.” She came into my life when I needed help the most, and has been my constant companion since. This fall my landlord tried to force me too “re home” her for no other reason than “she was an aggressive breed.” That’s when I reached Waggy, I don’t know what I would do without her.

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%
