Why I Regret Using CertaPet.com for ESA Documentation

I’m sharing this because I genuinely regret using CertaPet.com, especially because this service was meant to support my wife during her postpartum period. Instead of helping, the entire experience made an already difficult time more stressful and emotionally draining for both of us.

At first, CertaPet appeared professional and reassuring. Their website makes strong claims about licensed providers, legal compliance, and emotional support. Because my wife needed stability and reassurance postpartum, we trusted those claims. Unfortunately, once payment was made, everything went downhill.

Major Problems We Experienced

• Generic, low-quality ESA letter
  The letter felt rushed and templated, not like the result of a thoughtful evaluation. It lacked detail and didn’t inspire confidence that it would hold up if reviewed by a landlord.
• Questionable legitimacy
  Almost immediately, we doubted whether the document would actually be accepted. Instead of peace of mind, it created anxiety.
• Poor communication after payment
  Once they had our money, responses became slow, vague, and unhelpful. Most replies felt scripted and avoided answering real concerns.
• No transparency
  We were never clearly told who reviewed her case or what qualifications they had.
• Zero accountability
  After the letter was delivered, support essentially stopped. There was no follow-up and no meaningful help if the letter were questioned.
• Made my wife’s postpartum experience worse
  This ESA letter was meant to reduce stress and provide emotional stability during my wife’s postpartum recovery. Instead, the uncertainty, lack of support, and doubts about legitimacy added tension, frustration, and anxiety during a period when she needed reassurance—not more problems.
• High cost for minimal value
  Considering the price, the quality and lack of support were extremely disappointing.

Overall Impression
The entire experience felt more focused on marketing and appearance than on actually helping people in vulnerable situations. When a service positions itself as supportive, especially for emotional needs, this level of carelessness is unacceptable.
Final Thoughts
I regret using CertaPet.com for ESA documentation. The service failed to provide the reassurance we were seeking and instead made my wife’s postpartum period more difficult. I strongly advise anyone—especially families dealing with sensitive life stages—to research carefully and be extremely cautious before ordering.

If others here have used CertaPet.com, I’d be interested to hear whether your experience was similar.
