We sometimes receive requests for documentation for an Emotional Support Animal (ESA). Please note that while we honor the comfort found in companionship with a pet, ESA assessments and evaluations are outside the scope of the services we can provide. Please be aware in the State of Indiana, Emotional Support Animals are only allowed for those who have a documented disability as defined by the ADA.
Extreme caution and due diligence is strongly recommended when accessing any online resources which claim to "easily certify you for an emotional support animal for a fee," as these resources may be fraudulent.
