Talk with a mental health professional licensed in Colorado, and if an emotional support animal is right for you, get your letter within 10-15 minutes of approval.
Denver's rental market has grown fast, and newer buildings almost universally charge both a pet deposit and monthly pet rent.
A valid letter from a Colorado-licensed mental health professional is what turns a no-pet lease into an approved accommodation — no pet rent, no pet deposit, and no breed or weight limit.
The Colorado Civil Rights Division handles housing complaints locally, alongside HUD. Renters across Denver — including LoHi, RiNo, Capitol Hill, Wash Park and Cherry Creek — rely on the same federal protections, whatever the building looks like.
Complete a free pre-screening, meet a mental health professional licensed in Colorado by phone or video, and — if approved — receive your signed letter within 10-15 minutes. You aren’t charged unless you’re approved.
Your letter is issued under the Fair Housing Act, which covers where you live — apartments, condos, HOAs, and student housing. It doesn’t grant public access to stores or restaurants, and airlines have treated emotional support animals as pets since 2021. For the full picture, read our Colorado ESA law guide.
