No, they don't. There is no national Service Animal certification program. It doesn't exist. Anyone can get a Service Animal vest on Amazon, and anyone can print up a "certificate of completion" with a pretty gold star on it. It has no meaning at all.

It is also against the law to require proof that the owner needs a service animal, because it violates the Americans with Disabilities Act.
