ANIMAL TRANSPORTATION SERVICES
Whether you are traveling with your pet around the corner or around the world, we can help you organise your pet's travel arrangements.
After relocating and traveling around the world 4 times with my Dog, 2 Cats, and 4 Parrots, I have learnt the hard way about what to do and what not to do to ensure your pets have a safe and comfortable trip!
We will assist you with the following aspects of your Pet's travel:
Prearrange all necessary flights, ensuring a direct connection
whenever possible.
Since we are a small, home-based, company you can rest assured that you and your pet will receive our utmost attention and care. We do keep ourselves abreast of all the up-to-date travel requirements and documentation that could be required for animal transportation. This ensures that your pet's transportation will go smoothly and that your pet will arrive safely without any hassles. We follow a standard set of procedures and regulations when shipping pets which ensures your pets well being during travel. We follow the Animal Welfare Act and other federal guidelines.
Even though we are based in Salt Lake City, we do conduct our Animal Transportation Service throughout the United States as well as around the world, by working with other respected, professionals pet agents and angencies every leg of your pets journey.
