Welcome! We strive to help ensure mutual accountability and responsibility for the benefit of all our residents and tenants. It’s imperative that ALL our residents and tenants fully understand and acknowledge our pet and animal-related policies. This quick and easy process ensures we have your pet and animal-related policy acknowledgments, pet/animal history and records, and legal attestation of truthfulness and accuracy on file. All residents living in the rental home must submit a screening regardless if they have a pet or not.
This is a required application process for anyone that owns a household pet. This includes dogs and cats and might include pets that live in cages such as birds, hamsters, rabbits, snakes or fish tanks (because of the contained water) so please ask your housing provider for clarification regarding these types of pets.
This process provides a HIPAA compliant and secure way of submitting a reasonable accommodation request for an assistance animal (service animals, emotional support animals, companion animals, etc.) that will be reviewed by a third-party legal review team to ensure the accommodation request meets HUD’s Fair Housing Act guidelines. There is no cost ($0) to you to submit an accommodation request. Please make sure you are aware of your State’s laws, if any, for submitting a fraudulent accommodation request
Pet-screening ESA Letter Requirements
An assistance animal is an animal that works, provides assistance, or performs tasks for the benefit of a person with a disability, or that provides emotional support that alleviates one or more identified effects of person’s disability. An assistance animal is not a pet.
A legitimate ESA letter must include the Licensed Mental Health Professional’s license #, contact information, their signature, and the date the license was issued. This letter must be printed on the licensed professionals’ letterhead. This is important so the Landlord can confirm and verify the letter was written for you.
The letter will state that you have a disability and that an ESA would help alleviate symptoms of that condition. The ESA letter must be current within one year of application.
If letter is not sufficient, Pet-screening will request a new letter to be submitted. This will take additional time and your position in the application process will not be held.
