Florida's Fair Housing Act, alongside federal law, protects people with disabilities and their emotional support animals (ESAs) in housing, requiring landlords to make reasonable accommodations, even in "no pets" properties, without extra fees, provided the tenant offers documentation from a licensed professional confirming the disability-related need for the animal.
