2. OurPetPolicy and your property manager will review the visitation request and will notify you if the request has been approved. Please keep in mind that many properties only allow animal visitations for Service Animals. This is not applicable to ESAs, since individuals with ESAs are not eligible for reasonable accommodations in temporary housing situations.

For further information regarding the difference between service animals and ESAs, please check out [this article](http://40118531.hs-sites.com/resident-knowledgebase/what-is-an-assistance-animal) on assistance animals or contact [support@ourpetpolicy.com](mailto:support@ourpetpolicy.com)
