From calming anxious moments to bringing structure, companionship, and comfort to everyday life, pets can support us in ways that are difficult to put into words.
Share a photo and tell us how your pet helps you. Your story may help someone else feel seen, understood, or less alone.
These are the companions who sit beside us on difficult days, sense when something is wrong, encourage us to keep moving, and make home feel more like home.
A pet does not need to perform a trained task to make a meaningful difference in someone’s emotional well-being. For people with a qualifying mental or emotional health condition, an emotional support animal may be part of a broader care plan.
American Service Pets helps individuals connect with independent, state-licensed mental health professionals who determine whether an ESA letter may be appropriate based on an individual assessment.
Submitting a pet story does not qualify an individual for an ESA letter. ESA letter eligibility is determined by an independent licensed mental health professional following an assessment. Approval is not guaranteed.
