How to Get an ESA Letter in Massachusetts

If you live in Massachusetts, you are protected under the federal Fair Housing Act. This allows individuals with mental health conditions (such as anxiety, depression, or PTSD) to live with their emotional support animals even in "no-pet" housing.

Landlords in Massachusetts are required to accept a legitimate ESA letter written by a licensed healthcare professional. They cannot charge you pet rent, pet deposits, or apply breed/weight restrictions.

Who Qualifies in Massachusetts?

To qualify, a licensed professional must determine that you have a mental or emotional disability and that the animal provides support that alleviates at least one symptom of that disability.

  • Residents of Massachusetts with anxiety or depression.
  • Individuals with PTSD, insomnia, or stress.
  • Tenants seeking reasonable accommodation.

State Specific Regulations
