About

Hello! My name is Kathryn, and I’m the owner of Safe & Sound Transport. While we’re a newer name on this platform, we bring over 13 years of hands-on experience in safe, reliable transportation. My focus is simple: to provide VIP-level care with every journey—whether it’s a beloved pet or a time-sensitive delivery. At Safe & Sound, safety, communication, and compassion come first. I specialize in door-to-door, prompt, personalized service, and I treat every pet passenger, and any cargo with the same care and respect I would my own family and possessions. ⸻ For Pet Transport Clients Your pets are never “cargo” to us. They are privileged passengers—and for the duration of their journey, we serve as their temporary guardians. Every ride includes: • Climate-controlled cabin travel—never in the bed of a truck • Pets under 70 lbs only (exceptions may be made with prior discussion) • Frequent bonding breaks, potty stops, and stress-minimizing routines • Photos, videos, GPS tracking, and text updates—you’ll always know where they are and how they’re doing. • Personalized care that honors your pet’s routine, temperament, and preferences. We follow your guidance and instructions closely to ensure your companion is calm, comfortable, and loved throughout the trip. ⸻ 🗓 Trip Scheduling & Delivery Times • Same-day delivery for trips under 600 miles • Timely arrivals for all trips—with consistent updates along the way • Solo transports available upon request (May require a higher rate) • Bonded pairs or same-household pets may travel together with pre-approval We do not drive late at night, and when an overnight stay is necessary, your pet stays with us—never boarded or left alone. ⸻ 💬 Communication Is Key From first contact to final delivery, I’ll keep you fully informed. I provide: • Real-time GPS tracking • Regular photo and video updates • Text or phone check-ins throughout the journey You’ll always know what’s happening—and that your pet is in loving, capable hands. ⸻ 📋 Important Info & Client Responsibilities To ensure the best trip possible, please review the following: • All pets must be bathed and dry prior to pickup • Please provide: food, harness/leash, favorite bedding or toys, and any required medications with vet instructions • 50% deposit due upon booking; balance due at delivery. • Payments accepted via square, zelle or Venmo. Other arrangements should be agreed upon before pickup. • Reservations are first-come, first-served and subject to availability • Rates are based on fuel, tolls, and wear & tear. We consider overnight trips as kenneling. Prices may vary slightly based on route and current conditions, but I always aim to keep costs reasonable and do have payment options. ⸻ At Safe & Sound, we don’t just transport—we care. Our goal is to ensure a smooth, loving, low-stress experience for both you and your furry companion. I truly appreciate your trust and look forward to helping reunite you with your beloved pet. Warmly, Kathryn Owner, Safe & Sound Transport

Kat did an excellent job of Transporting our Chloe. Kat treated Chloe so well that Chloe fell in love with her. What more could you ask for in a transporter. Kat’s treatment of Chloe was far more than we expected!

Kat came into my life at a time when I felt completely broken. When Kingston passed away suddenly, the shock and pain were overwhelming. Anyone who has lost a dog knows they aren’t just pets — they’re family. And losing him the way I did left a hole in my heart I wasn’t prepared for. Even though we met online and only spoke over the phone, the compassion she showed felt genuine and sincere. She listened without judgment, she gave me space to grieve, and she offered comfort when I felt lost. In one of the hardest moments of my life, she showed up with kindness and understanding that I will never forget. Because of that, we will always have a connection. It’s tied to Kingston, to love, and to a moment when I truly needed someone. I’m deeply grateful for her support and the way she helped me through such a painful time. Love, Jimmy & Kingston
