Not only does our pet shipping company frequently transport pets internationally, but we’ve built relationships with people who operate animal centers, including London-Heathrow, one of the busiest airports in the world. Our top international destinations for pet relocation include: U.K., Germany, Italy, France, Netherlands, Philippines, Singapore, UAE (Dubai) and Jakarta.
Pet Transport Pro offers full pet transportation services internationally and domestically. We will prioritize your pet’s comfort and recommend ground or air transportation based on its weight, size, breed and destination. And, yes, we move cats as well. We handle the details and update you regularly, so you can focus on your part of the move with one less worry.
Pet Transport Pro operates as an in-house pet transportation company, so the person who quotes your move is the same person who plans the itinerary and follows it through to delivery. We serve pet owners moving out of major hubs including San Francisco, New York, Boston, Los Angeles, Seattle, Denver, and Houston, connecting them to destinations across the country and overseas. Because our team stays hands-on with every case, our pet transportation service keeps a small, manageable caseload rather than dispatching moves to outside contractors.
Part of what sets our pet transportation company apart is access to specialty flights that are not available to the general public, which opens up cargo space on routes where seats fill up fast. Whether your pet is flying domestically or heading overseas, our pet transportation service plans the itinerary around your pet’s size, breed, and destination requirements, then manages the paperwork so nothing gets missed at check-in.
Dogs make up most of the moves we handle, and crate size, breed, and temperament all shape how a trip gets planned. We recommend getting your dog’s travel crate at least a month before departure, longer if possible, so your dog has time to get used to it before the actual trip. From a dog’s first flight to a dog’s cross-country move, our dog transport team builds the itinerary around what your dog can handle, not a standard template.
Cats travel differently than dogs: they settle better with less handling and a quieter crate setup, and carrier size rules can differ from what applies to larger dogs. Our team moves cats domestically and internationally and works around each airline’s requirements for carrier size and pet weight. If you are relocating with a cat alongside a dog, we coordinate both pets on the same itinerary wherever possible so your whole household travels together. Learn more about our cat transport options for your move.
New York City: With multiple major airports and a dense international flight schedule, NYC is one of our busiest pickup points for both domestic and overseas moves. See our pet transport in NYC page for route details.
Los Angeles: LA’s mix of long domestic routes and Pacific-bound international flights means crate and airline requirements for Los Angeles pet transport vary a lot by destination.
San Francisco: San Francisco pet shipping often come with tight timelines tied to a job start date, so we plan backward from your move-in day.
Spain: Spain is one of our most requested European destinations, and the paperwork for the pet transport to Spain process is largely the same as for other EU countries.
Europe: Beyond Spain, we regularly handle moves to the UK, Germany, Ireland, and beyond. For international pet transport to Europe, you can see the full list of countries we serve.
Pet Transport Pro is led personally by founder Anthony Denicker, who has spent close to three decades moving pets and still handles many moves himself. You can meet our founder and see how the team works, or read customer reviews from pet owners who have moved with us.
There is no denying that moving from one place to another is a stressful and tiring event, and that also goes the same for your pets. We take out the stress in pet moving by offering home pickups, which are convenient and will provide some relief to the pet owner. We also offer door-to-door delivery worldwide!
Air travel will be somewhat challenging for your pets because there is a restriction that the cities you travel through need temperatures lower than 80 degrees (Fahrenheit), and most locations can tend to be warmer than that. Often, pets are stored in the plane’s cargo section, where temperatures cannot be controlled. Airlines also have certain breed restrictions, and they cannot accept all pets. If you are unsure of what to do, you can contact Pet Transport Pro for options, and we will help plan the best possible route for your pet, even if it is across the country!
As fellow pet lovers, the Pet Transport Pro team prides itself on providing the safest and most comfortable way to transport your pets. We want to make sure that this experience will be stress-free and hassle-free for your pets.
We can accommodate special requests for your pet. We can customize a travel plan or itinerary for your pet while moving and incorporate their special requests to always keep them comfortable. Whatever your dog’s needs, personality, or quirks, we accommodate special requests for how you would care for your dog while traveling to your destination.
The specific rate will vary on several factors: ground vs. airline shipping, distance covered while shipping, the type of pet, and numbers of pets.
Our prices are competitive, and in your consultation with us, we can go over the pricing options and find the best option for your pet that meets your budget. Contact us now for a free quote!
Depending on your destination, we suggest booking international pet travel within 30 days of your desired move date. In most cases 10 days is plenty of time to make a booking with our service. In general, we would recommend booking your pet’s travel within 30-60 days of travel. Please always check with us in advance as some international pet travel requires weeks or months of preparation.
Yes. Every pet ships in an airline-approved crate sized and prepped for its breed and weight, and our team manages the paperwork, vaccination records, and airline requirements so nothing is missed at check-in. You can follow your pet’s move online using a tracking number that updates once your pet checks in and again once your pet lands, so you always know the trip is on schedule.
