ESA and Psychiatric Service Dog Evaluations for Dallas and North Texas Residents
If you rent in Dallas, you know how strict pet rules can be. Texas Service Animals connects you with a Texas-licensed psychotherapist who can evaluate you for a real Emotional Support Animal (ESA) housing letter that is written for actual leases and property managers in the Dallas Fort Worth area.
You begin with a free ESA screening and there is no obligation to pay. You only pay if you qualify and decide to move forward with your official ESA letter for Dallas housing.
We frequently work with renters in neighborhoods like Uptown, Downtown Dallas, Deep Ellum, Oak Lawn, Bishop Arts, Plano, Frisco, Irving, and Arlington who are tired of pet deposits, monthly pet rent, or "no pets" policies that do not recognize assistance animals.
This Dallas page is built on the same clinical process as our main ESA platform, but the wording, examples, and FAQs are tailored to North Texas housing and property managers.
First, you complete a secure online intake. Next, you meet with a Texas-licensed psychotherapist. If you qualify and choose to continue, you receive a housing-focused ESA letter that is written specifically for Dallas and North Texas rentals.
Evaluations are completed by a Texas-licensed psychotherapist who routinely works with anxiety, depression, trauma, panic, and other conditions that can qualify for ESA housing letters or psychiatric service dog documentation used in Dallas apartments and townhomes.
Your information is handled using HIPAA-aware practices and encrypted tools. The goal is clear, practical documentation that makes sense to leasing offices, not a generic ESA certificate from the internet.
Instead of guessing what your landlord needs, you move through a structured six-step process designed for Dallas and North Texas renters.
You complete a secure assessment that covers your symptoms, stressors, and how your animal helps you function at home and in daily life. This gives the clinician a clear starting point for your case.
You share details about your current or upcoming lease in the Dallas Fort Worth area, including any pet rent, deposits, breed or weight limits, or "no pet" policies that are causing problems.
You review and sign consent forms that explain how services work and how your information is protected. All communication and evaluation are completed through secure, HIPAA-aware tools.
You meet with the clinician, who reviews your assessment, asks follow-up questions, and determines whether an ESA or psychiatric service dog letter is clinically justified for your situation.
If you qualify and decide to proceed, your letter is written to align with Fair Housing Act and HUD guidance and is tailored to work for Dallas property managers, not just copied from a template.
After payment, your letter is delivered electronically and ready to send to your leasing office. Basic clarification for landlords and property managers is included, so you are not charged extra documentation fees later.
When you are dealing with a Dallas landlord, the difference between a quick ESA registration and a real clinical letter can decide whether your animal stays with you.
Most approved letters are delivered within 24 to 48 hours after payment, but every case goes through a full evaluation so your documentation is something you can confidently hand to a Dallas leasing office.
Letters are based on genuine clinical evaluations and are intended to align with Fair Housing Act and HUD guidance. That is what makes your ESA or PSD letter a legitimate tool for Dallas housing, not just a registration number.
If your landlord or property manager has reasonable questions about your letter, we include clarification support. You are not asked to buy extra packages just to get basic help with your documentation.
These are a sample of our Five Star reviews from Texans who used Texas Service Animals for ESA or psychiatric service dog documentation. You can view all reviews directly on our Google Business profile .
"I had the best experience with Texas Service Animals! The process of getting my Emotional Support Animal approved was quick, stress free, and completely professional. They guided me through every step and answered all my questions."
"I cannot thank Texas Service Animals enough for helping me get my service animal approved to live with me in my apartment. They were incredibly supportive, knowledgeable, and responsive from start to finish."
"The whole process was super fast and easy. Eddie and his team were very friendly and professional, which made everything much less stressful. I definitely recommend them to anyone needing an ESA letter."
Many national ESA websites sell registrations, ID cards, and upsell extra documents. Texas Service Animals keeps it simple: your initial evaluation is free, and you only pay if you are approved and decide to move forward with your letter.

Yes. Your ESA or psychiatric service dog evaluation starts with a free screening. You complete a secure assessment and meet with a Texas-licensed psychotherapist. If the clinician does not believe a letter is clinically appropriate, you are not charged.
You only pay if you qualify and decide to move forward with your Dallas ESA or PSD letter after that evaluation.
Your letter is written by a Texas-licensed psychotherapist and is intended to align with Fair Housing Act and HUD guidance for assistance animals in housing. Many Dallas Fort Worth apartments and property managers are familiar with this kind of documentation.
While no one can promise how a specific landlord will react, our goal is to provide clear, professional housing documentation. If you ever feel you are being treated unfairly because of your disability, you can review your rights and complaint options on the official HUD site.
No. There is no official ESA registration for Dallas renters that is required under federal housing law. Most properties only ask for a letter from a licensed mental health professional that explains why an assistance animal is part of your disability-related needs.
Texas Service Animals does not sell registrations. Instead, we focus on real evaluations and letters grounded in clinical care.
In many cases, yes. If it makes sense clinically, your housing letter can list more than one Emotional Support Animal. Our multiple-pet option covers up to three ESAs on the same document for a single flat fee.
Most housing providers prefer documentation that reflects care within the past year. Your letter will show the date of evaluation, and when you need an update, the clinician will complete a brief renewal process so your documentation stays current and credible.
We serve renters throughout North Texas, including Dallas, Fort Worth, Arlington, Irving, Plano, Frisco, Garland, Mesquite, and other nearby communities. As long as you are a Texas resident and the housing is in Texas, we can evaluate you through our platform.
Many renters in the Dallas Fort Worth area have already used this process to keep their support animals with them in apartments, townhomes, and single-family rentals. Your evaluation is free, and you only pay if you are approved and choose to move forward with your letter.

I am Eddie Reyes, a licensed psychotherapist in Texas and the founder of Texas Service Animals. I started this practice after seeing how much difference a well trained support animal can make for people living with anxiety, depression, trauma, and other mental health challenges, especially when housing rules threaten to separate them from their animals.
To learn more about our story and how we work with Texans in cities like Dallas, Houston, Austin, and the Rio Grande Valley, you can visit our About Us page.
Like many of the clients I support, I also rely on my own Emotional Support Animal to manage stress and maintain balance. That is why I take ESA and PSD evaluations seriously and focus on ethical, clinically justified letters that genuinely support your housing needs in Dallas and across Texas.
