Tenant with 4 service dogs

I have a SFH that is 929 Sqft, 2 beds, 2 baths. I got a tenant with 4 service dogs, I know that by law they're not considered pets but isn't 4 dogs too many for just 2 people

Any suggestions what should I do? What I need to get from them as proof or what would you do if you were in my shoes?

Thanks a lot!

I doubt that they are service dogs, more like emotional support animals which is a loophole to get pets.  You can ask for documentation for the animals-you can NOT ask why they need them, but you can ask for documentation. You can also request it comes from a local doctor and not an online company.
