Shipment from Tacoma, WA to New Orleans, LA
Crystal was absolutely incredible from start to finish. My plans changed, and she was so flexible and accommodating every step of the way. She made what could have been a really stressful experience feel easy. What stood out most was how much she genuinely cared about my dog Ripley. It never felt like he was just another pet she was transporting, she took the time to get to know her, kept me updated throughout the trip, and it was obvious they developed a real bond. Knowing she was comfortable, loved on, and in such good hands gave me complete peace of mind. If youāre on the fence about trusting someone with your pet, donāt be. Iād trust Crystal with Ripley again in a heartbeat. She went above and beyond, and I canāt recommend her highly enough.
Shipment from Chantilly, VA to Denver, CO
Zoey traveled all the way from South Africa, and due to the limited number of approved U.S. entry ports for dogs from South Africa, she ultimately had to fly into Washington. We are based in Denver and initially considered driving to Washington to pick her up ourselves, but quickly realized it was a 23-hour drive one way. Kevin provided a very competitive quote, and a major advantage was that Zoey was able to fly in-cabin with him. This gave us great peace of mind, knowing she would be well cared for and significantly reduced the stress and travel time compared to a long road trip. After picking Zoey up from Pender Pet in Washington, Kevin kept us updated with thoughtful photos and even visited her on the day of her arrival. We decided to have her stay one night at Pender Pet to allow her to rest after her long journey from South Africa. We also had to reschedule her travel date due to an accident she had prior to departure. Kevin was very understanding and accommodating, making the change without any additional charges. We would not hesitate to use Kevin again in the future and highly recommend his services. He clearly has a natural way with dogs, and it was evident how comfortable Zoey felt with himāalmost as if she was thanking him for safely bringing her home to us.

Shipment from Summerville, SC to Chicago, IL
Kesha went above and beyond transporting a puppy from Summerville to Chicago. She was professional, communicated, and treated our puppy with a lot of attention throughout the trip. And she's really nice! Highly recommended!
Shipment from Orlando, FL to York, PA
Annie is great. As she will tell you, I was so skeptical, and I kept bothering her for location, updates, but in all honesty, she volunteered them freely. She sent us pictures at every stop, hotel stay, and even after her departure, after delivering Diamond to my mother, she still checks on her. Love her services!!! Hands down, I'm sooooo grateful for her. Thank you, Annie, truly!!!
Shipment from Santa Clarita, CA to Tomball, TX
They arrived when stated and had no issues. I would use again.
Shipment from Winter Haven, FL to Sandy, UT
This was a difficult process for me. Set up transport with another driver. The person was solely concerned about payment. Made me so uneasy that I ended up canceling her. Christina from the beginning of process made me feel at ease. She sent pictures and text during the transport. Kept me informed and up to date on during process. Only the day of pickup is when she mentioned of payment. I felt comfortable leaving my Boson Terrier with her. I would difinitly use her services again if I needed to. Thank you very much for bringing him home safe.
Shipment from Wheaton, IL to Los Angeles, CA
I highly recommend Tim to transport your pup! We hired him to transport our sheepadoodle from Chicago to LA after learning that she was too tall for her crate and she would be unable to fly on American or any other airline due to her size. Tim was super responsive, sent multiple pictures during the transport, and he even arrived 1 day early. If we ever need a pet transport again, I would hire him! Thank you again!!!

Shipment from Biloxi, MS to New York, NY
Amazing service from start to finish. They took incredible care of my dog, updated me throughout the trip and sent pictures. He arrived safely and was happy! Truly amazing service and great team. Thank you again.
Shipment from Calexico, CA to Valrico, FL
From start to finish, the service was outstanding. They kept me updated every 3-4 hours with pictures and videos, and it was obvious they genuinely cared about my dogs throughout the entire trip. Arya and Sansa arrived happy, healthy, relaxed, and in great spirits. Moving pets across the country is stressful, but they made the entire experience smooth and gave me peace of mind every step of the way. Their communication was excellent, they treated my dogs like family, and they delivered exactly when they said they would. I couldnāt have asked for a better experience. If youāre looking for a trustworthy, caring, and professional pet transport company, I highly recommend them. Thank you for taking such great care of my girls!
