Meet a Utah-licensed mental health professional by phone or video. If you're approved, your signed ESA letter arrives in 10-15 minutes.
Orem is home to Utah Valley University, one of the largest universities in Utah by enrollment, and adjoins Provo.
A letter from a Utah-licensed mental health professional is the documentation behind a reasonable accommodation request — the step that lets a renter ask to set aside a no-pet rule, pet rent and pet deposits.
With roughly 95,200 residents, Orem in Utah County is Utah’s seventh-largest city. Renters across University Place, Utah Valley University area, Cascade, Windsor and Sharon rely on the same fair housing protections, whatever the building or landlord.
Utah law protects tenants with disabilities who have a service animal or a support animal (an animal that qualifies as a reasonable accommodation under federal law) in private rental housing: the owner may not discriminate or charge an extra fee or deposit for the animal, though the tenant remains liable for damage it causes (Utah Code 26B-6-803). Housing discrimination complaints can be filed with the Utah Antidiscrimination and Labor Division (Utah Labor Commission) or with HUD. For the details, read our Utah ESA law guide.

Yes. What matters is a real evaluation by a professional licensed in Utah, not whether the appointment happened in person or by video.
Only on narrow grounds. A valid letter supports a reasonable accommodation request that sets aside no-pet rules; denials are limited to cases like a specific animal posing a direct threat, and some small owner-occupied buildings are exempt.
Quickly — same-day slots are usually open, and approved letters reach you within 10-15 minutes of the evaluation.
It does. The professional must hold an active Utah license, which is who you’re matched with when you select Orem.
Yes. The Fair Housing Act reaches HOAs, condo boards and co-ops, so community pet rules are subject to the same reasonable accommodation process.
