Davie, Florida ESA and PSD Letters for Town and Ranch
Davie is the kind of place where a riding trail runs past a subdivision and a university campus sits a few miles from a rodeo arena. If your dog, cat or trained service dog helps you manage life here, a free screening is how you find out whether a Florida clinician can support your housing request.

Western Roots in South Florida
The town took its name from Robert Parsell Davie, who bought reclaimed swampland here in the early 1900s; the settlement first went by Zona. Long before that, people camped on Pine Island Ridge, where the oldest sites found date back 5,000 to 7,000 years.
Meeting Horses on the Trail With Your Dog
Davie's riding trails are shared by riders, walkers and dogs. Pick a situation for calm, practical steps that keep everyone safe.
Renting on Horse-Friendly Land
Some Davie rentals come with barns and paddocks. Here is how an ESA request fits in.
The house
An ESA letter asks the owner to set aside a no-pet rule for a household animal living with you.
The barn
Horses and livestock follow the lease and local zoning, not an emotional support letter.
Miniature horses
A trained miniature horse can be a service animal in Florida. Our Ocala page explains the test.
Rodeo Nights and Big Crowds
Events at the Bergeron Rodeo Grounds bring livestock, loud crowds and dust. Plan ahead if an animal comes with you.
Campuses in Davie
Students renting near these campuses send their letter to the landlord; on-campus housing has its own process through each school.

Broward registration still applies
Davie is a town, but its dogs and cats follow Broward County rules: registration and a county tag from four months, with a current rabies certificate and yearly renewal.
Davie Questions
Is Davie a town or a city?
A town, and the largest town in Florida by population. For pet tags, Davie follows Broward County's rules like its neighbors.
Can I have an ESA on a horse property rental in Davie?
Yes, for a household animal such as a dog or cat. Send the request to the owner. Horses and other livestock on the property are governed by the lease and zoning, not by an ESA letter.
How should my service dog behave around horses on Davie trails?
Keep it close and calm, step well off the trail, speak to the rider so the horse knows you are there, and let the horse pass before you move on.
Can my dog come to a rodeo?
A trained service dog may generally accompany its handler at public events, though areas near livestock can be limited for safety. A support animal depends on the event's pet policy.
I study in Davie. Can I get a letter for off-campus housing?
Yes. Send the letter to your landlord or property manager. On-campus housing is handled through each school's own housing or accessibility office.
Do Davie pets need a Broward County tag?
Yes. Dogs and cats four months or older must be registered with Broward County and wear its tag, which is renewed every year.
Neighbors of Davie
General information for Davie residents, current as of September 2026. Trail advice is general safety guidance, not a rule of any park or trail, and this page is not legal or veterinary advice. Event and trail rules are set by their operators and tag rules by Broward County. A screening may end without a letter. In a crisis, call or text 988.
