Frequently Asked Questions
Quick answers to help you understand your rights and our services.
How do I verify a TheraPetic document?▾
Every TheraPetic document includes a unique verification code and QR code. Landlords, airlines, and businesses can visit our verification portal, enter the code, and instantly confirm the document is authentic, current, and issued by a Licensed Clinical Doctor. The verification confirms the document's validity without revealing any private medical information.
Why would a landlord need to verify a letter?▾
Fraudulent support animal letters are a real problem. Landlords have the right to verify that documentation is from a legitimate licensed healthcare professional. Our verification system protects both tenants and landlords — tenants get their accommodation request honored quickly, and landlords have confidence the documentation is real.
Is there an official government registry for service animals?▾
No. No government — federal, state, or local — maintains an official registry for service dogs or support animals in the United States. Any website claiming to be an official government registry is misleading. Legitimate documentation comes from a licensed healthcare professional, not a registration database.
What information does the verification show?▾
The verification confirms that the document was issued by TheraPetic, the date of issuance, the document's current validity status, and that it was signed by a licensed healthcare professional. It does not reveal the client's diagnosis, medical details, or any protected health information. This protects client privacy while giving verifiers the confidence they need.
