Psychiatric Service Dog Assessment

Answer a few questions so a licensed provider can evaluate whether a task-trained psychiatric service dog fits your situation. Honest routing, real evaluation, refund if you do not qualify.

Step 1 of 14About 4 minutes

Which best describes your situation?

This tells your evaluator what the letter needs to achieve.

What kind of housing is it?

Different housing types are covered by slightly different rules.

Where do things stand with your landlord?

This changes how urgently your letter is needed and how it should be worded.

Tell us about your dog

Psychiatric service dog documentation applies to dogs specifically.

How many animals is this letter for?

Your letter names each animal, so this decides which plan fits.

How long has this animal been with you?

A settled bond is one of the things evaluators look at.

Which tasks is your dog trained, or being trained, to do for you?

A psychiatric service dog is trained to perform specific tasks related to a disability. Select everything that applies.

What are you managing at the moment?

Your answer is shared only with your licensed evaluator and never appears on your letter.

Over the last two weeks, how often have you been bothered by the following?

This is the standard PHQ-4 screen that clinicians use. Answer honestly; there are no right answers.

Feeling nervous, anxious or on edge
Not being able to stop or control worrying
Little interest or pleasure in doing things
Feeling down, depressed or hopeless

And over the same two weeks, how often have you had the following?

A few more questions your evaluator will go over with you.

Trouble falling or staying asleep, or sleeping too much
Trouble concentrating on things
Avoiding places, people or situations because of how you feel
Thoughts that you would be better off dead, or of hurting yourself in some way
Private by design. Your answers go only to the licensed professional evaluating you, never to your landlord, and your letter never states a diagnosis. This screening is not a diagnosis.

Which parts of daily life does this affect?

Select everything that applies. Evaluators are required to consider how symptoms limit daily activities.

A little more context

A few quick questions that help your evaluator prepare.

Where do you live, and how soon do you need this?

Your evaluator must hold a licence in your state, so this decides who reviews your file.

California residents: state law requires a 30-day provider relationship before a letter can issue. Your evaluation starts that clock today.

Where should your evaluator reach you?

Your pre-check is sent to a licensed provider for review. You choose your plan on the next screen.

Submitting sends your pre-check to a licensed provider. Nothing is charged until you choose a plan on the next screen, and you are refunded in full if the provider determines you do not qualify.
