About

Most people shipping a pet don’t say it out loud, but they’re all thinking the same thing: who is this person, really? The profile looks okay. The stats seem fine. But this either is, or is going-to-be your family. And once they’re in that car, you’re trusting someone you’ve never met to care about them the way you do. I own a Corgi. The first time I handed him to a stranger, I spent the whole day waiting for updates that never came. That experience is why I built everything about how I operate around one principle: you should never have to wonder. 50 trips. 5 stars on every one. Zero cancellations. Pet Transport Expert. Every customer who’s booked me has either returned or referred someone else. I specialize in the I-5 corridor: Washington, Oregon, and California. Not occasionally. As a territory I know deeply. I plan for traffic windows, weather patterns, and rest stops before they become problems. I don’t get lost, I don’t get caught off guard, and I don’t go quiet. Here’s what every transport includes regardless of tier: stops every 2–4 hours so your pet can stretch, drink purified water, eat, and reset. Kennels sanitized between every transport. Blankets washed. Disposable bowls to prevent cross-contamination. Live location shared as I approach pickup and as we close in on delivery. Behavior and mood updates at every stop along with the coordinates. Multiple crate sizes on board. I sleep 6–8 hours minimum, because being a tired driver is a risk I don’t take. If I stay at a hotel, your pet stays with me. My Travel Options: Standard (Shared): Your pet travels with up to two others, all fully separated. Photo and video updates at every stop. Live location on approach. You’ll know exactly where they are. VIP (Solo): Your pet is the only animal in the vehicle. Hourly text check-ins between stops. Priority scheduling with pickup as soon as next day, delivery typically within one to two days. You’ll know how your pet is doing before you even think to ask. I’ve transported dogs, cats, pigs, bearded dragons, and animals with medical conditions, anxiety, car sickness, age-related needs, and special handling requirements. If your pet has a situation, tell me before you book. Those are exactly the kind of trips I take most seriously. The risk of choosing wrong on a platform like this isn’t just a disappointing experience. It’s hours of not knowing if your animal is okay. It’s a driver who goes quiet mid-route. It’s finding out something happened after you can’t do anything about it. If at any point during our transport you feel out of the loop, message me directly. I’ll make it right before we arrive. More reviews doesn’t always mean more care. At some point, volume becomes routine. This is still my reputation, not my routine, which means every transport gets my full attention, not just my presence. The Camry handles pet transport: VIP and shared. The RAM 3500 handles larger animals, larger loads, and cargo with trailer capacity for bigger jobs. I never rent vehicles. I’m not chasing fares. I’m building something on this corridor, one trip at a time. Your experience is what my next booking depends on. Message me before you book. I’d rather answer every question twice than have you uncertain for a second.

Ricardo was fantastic from start to finish. He was one of the first transporters to reach out to me with a fair, reasonable bid. He had enough positive reviews to make me feel confident choosing him, but what really stood out was how personable, professional, and easy he was to communicate with. He was able to pick up our puppy a day earlier than expected, which was a huge bonus. Throughout the entire trip, I never had to ask for updates or pictures—Ricardo kept me informed every step of the way on his own. He also asked thoughtful questions I hadn’t even considered, which showed how attentive and experienced he is. Our Doberman puppy, Cyna, is under 14 weeks old, so minimizing her exposure to diseases like parvo was extremely important to us. Ricardo took extra precautions to ensure she wasn’t accidentally exposed to high-risk areas, giving us tremendous peace of mind during her journey. Cyna arrived happy, healthy, and well cared for. I would recommend Ricardo without hesitation, and I would absolutely use him again in a heartbeat. If you’re looking for someone who genuinely cares about the animals he transports, you won’t be disappointed. Thank you Ricardo! Sending blessings to you in your business!

Ricardo was fantastic and communicative. I received regular texts and photos from him while on the road. He made me feel safe with our new bundle as he traveled from Stockton to Desert Hot Springs.

I recommend Ricardo 100%!! The moment I met him I knew my critters would be taken care of. I appreciate the peace of mind knowing they’d be safe and the updates I got along the way.
