Pets that show signs of being aggressive will be accommodated within the USDA pet transportation guidelines. We do stop regularly on pet friendly parks or trails so they can get some fresh air and rest from the road. Every 4 hours pets will be check on, and any fresh water, food, cleaning, bedding adjustments or any other needs detected will be addressed. Most of travel in average is done during the night time, so pets get to relax and rest from the road during the day when they are normally more active. Pets tend to be sleeping when we are moving down the road, so things are pretty chill during transport. This may be due to our vast experience in accommodating and taking good care of the pets, which allows them to feel comfortable, and relaxed along the way with less stress as possible. Comfortable spacious bedding, fresh clean water, timely potty brakes, smooth safe driving conditions all contribute for a better experience for your pet. The driver will make the diligence to adapt driving habits to provide a safe and smooth ride to the furry passengers; avoiding to drive in high traffic, use moderated speeds and avoiding to drive during severe weather conditions. Safety and pet comfort may make our ETA differ from normal GPS ETA’s. The driver has to take a safety rest brake normally after every 10 hours of driving, or whenever he feels the need for some rest. GPS traking will be available and video and pictures updates. PET WAY is a Sole Proprietorship business registered in Florida under the fictitious name PET WAY Jun of 2020.

We consider all guidelines and recommendations for pet ground transportation from institutions like USDA, AVMA, ASPCA, AVMA's, etc. !!!!!!!!!!How to prepare your pet for transportation.!!!!!!!!!!!!!! PET WAY is here and along the way to help you prepare your pet and help your pet have a safe and comfortable experience. The better you prepare your pet for travel the better will be his experience. What should you think about when deciding to transport your pet cross country? Make sure your pet is comfortable with travel Some pets cannot handle travel because of illness, injury, age or temperament. If your veterinarian does not recommend travel, you should consider a reliable pet- sitter or boarding facilities in your area. Make sure your pet has identification tags with up-to-date information. Having your pet implanted with a microchip can improve your chances of getting your pet back if it becomes lost. If you are taking your pet across state or international borders, a health certificate as well as other documentation may be required. The health certificate must be signed by an accredited veterinarian after examining your pet and determining that it is free of infectious diseases and satisfies all import requirements of the receiving state, territory, or country. International travel often requires USDA endorsement of the certificate. For more information, see AVMA's resources on Animal Travel and Transport and Basic Timeline for Interstate and International Travel with Animals. What can you do to prepare your pet for ground transport You must always talk to your pet's veterinary about all of his health conditions and characteristics and how that may be impacted by the transportation before shipping your pet. Not used to car rides? If you don't often take your pet in the car, start with short trips to "fun" destinations (such as a dog-friendly park or play area) to help your pet get used to riding in a car. Not used to be in a crate? If your pet is not used to be in a crate, u must train him days before transportation to be in a crate in hour house, by placing him a cupule of hour a day. If your pet gets car sick, talk to your veterinarian about alternate traveling suggestions or medications to keep them comfortable. According to the AVMA Policy: Transport of Dogs in Motor Vehicles Pets will not be allowed to ride with their heads outside the window. Dirt and other debris can enter their eyes, ears and nose and cause injury or infection. Pets will not be allowed to ride on the driver's lap or near the driver's feet or loose on car seats or vehicle trunk. Providing a familiar blanket and/or safe toy can help make your pet more comfortable during the trip. We never leave your pet in vehicle unattended. Vehicle is climatized and we adjust it too the climatization needs requested in writing on the acclimation certificate of your pet. What should your pet bring for the trip? Veterinarian's contact information Pet Identification Current color photo of your pet ID tag should include: The microchip registration should be updated with your current contact information including a cell phone number. Medical Records Current copies of your pet's medical records including pre-existing conditions and medications (especially when re-locating or traveling out of the country). For travel within the United States, a brief summary of medical conditions would be sufficient. Certificate of Veterinary Inspection (health certificate) Proof of vaccinations (Proof of rabies vaccination required) and other illnesses !!!!!!!!!!!!!Travel and short-nosed dogs!!!!!!!!!!!! In July 2010, the U.S. Department of Transportation released statistics that showed short-nosed breeds of dogs—such as pugs, Boston Terriers, boxers, some mastiffs, Pekingese, Lhasa Apsos, Shih tzus and bulldogs—are more likely to die on airplanes/surface transportation than dogs with normal-length muzzles. Veterinarians have long known that short-nosed – the technical term is brachycephalic – dog breeds are more prone to respiratory problems under normal circumstances, and not just during air travel. The situation is worsened if the dog is overweight or obese. There are many things you can do, including: Keep your pet healthy and at a normal weight. Pets with underlying medical conditions may be more likely to have problems during transport. Elderly and obese pets may also be at higher risk. Getting your pet used to its traveling crate can really reduce stress while traveling Although it can be comforting to your pet to have a familiar-smelling item in its travel crate, avoid thick blankets, fluffy towels or cloth items that your pet can wrap itself or bury its nose in – this could increase the risk of respiratory problems. A very thin blanket or flat newspaper is best for lining the crate. If you have a short-nosed breed of dog, ask your veterinarian about your pet's respiratory health and what precautions you can take to minimize the risks for your pet if he has any health condition that has been recommended for surgery in the pass we don't recommend traveling with pet till you take care of it. We strongly recommend that you avoid tranquilizing your pet for air travel, because it can increase your pet's risk of injury and health problems. !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!TERMS AND CONDITIONS YOU MUST ACEEPT BEFFORE BOOKING!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Please read terms & conditions before submitting you request We provide only 5 star certified crash proof crates, offering extra safety and a comfortable/private enclosed area with adequate size for your pet where he can stand, turn around, and lay naturally (a crate with excessive space relative to your pet size may lead to injures during ground transportation). All crates have water drainage system (for better cleaning/sanitation) and most offer dedicated ventilation and private light. All pets must be at least 8 weeks of age to be ground transported. The individual requesting or arranging for transport certifies that the pet being transported by PET WAY is at least 8 weeks of age on or before transport pick-up date. Your pet must be healthy and at a normal weight. Pets with underlying medical conditions may be more likely to have problems during transport. Elderly and obese pets may also be at higher risk and in these cases PETWAY Courier has the right to refuse trip or reschedule trip. We strongly recommend that you avoid tranquilizing your pet for travel, because it can increase your pet's risk of injury and health problems. We don't recommend shipping any pets within 48 hours after shoots or other medicine with the risk of causing secondary effects to the pet. For short-nosed dogs and cats the last 2 points must be taken into extra attention before trip. Please have the Emergency Care Authorization questions box check when requesting trip on this website, Rabies certificates (just for pets more than 16 weeks) available when your pet is picked up A valid health certificate issued by a doctor of veterinary medicine is required by some states no sooner than 15 days before the scheduled delivery date and the certificate must travel with the pet. Scheduling Pick-up and Delivery: You will be given a 3-day window of time for pickup and delivery. Pickup or delivery may be outside of normal business hours to keep on schedule and to meet your needs. We cannot guarantee specific pickup and delivery dates and times, especially on our shared rides. All dates for pickup and delivery are approximate. We will make every effort to meet the dates specified by you, but there can be unforeseeable circumstances which affect the dates given for transport which can include weather, road conditions, acts of God, etc. If no person is present at the time of transport and/or the above-described paperwork is not in order at the time of pick-up or delivery, we may have to continue without your pet. You may have to assume part of costs or booking fee. Emergency Care Authorization gives us permission to take your pet to a qualified veterinarian in the event they become ill during transport. We will make every effort to contact you prior to seeking emergency action. However, if you cannot be reached to have medical emergency treatment approved by you, we will use our discretion to ensure the well-being and health of your pet. You have to accept and be comfortable with the fact, the handler/driver may have to take photos and videos, with audio, featuring the individuals/parties and pets evolve with the transportation, as updates and to communicate the condition and wellbeing of the pets along the journey, some may be published on social media, group messages and or be used as proof of delivery or pickup. Scheduling - Length of Transport. You understand that there is no guarantee or promise made as to the length of time necessary to complete the transport of your pet. The duration of transport is determined by routing, weather, and traffic conditions and could potentially last up to 6 days for long cross country trips 3000 plus miles on shared rides due to delays. While this is rare, all efforts will be made to keep you informed and to keep your pet as comfortable and happy as possible. We provide transport services 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. You will be provided with estimated pick up and delivery dates. We will make every effort to arrive at convenient times, however, scheduling changes and unforeseen delays beyond our control may occur. DELIVERY. We will make every reasonable attempt to notify the person receiving the pet of our estimated time of arrival. If no one is available to receive the animal and/or we are unable to contact the responsible party, there will be a daily fee of $150 per pet for the cost of care and boarding. The party ordering the transport will be responsible for these charges. We recommend that alternate arrangements be made in the event the person responsible for receiving the animal is unable to do so. The receiving party must be available 24 hours a day. Cancelations 3 days before pick up may be subject to a 250$ fee or a rebooking fee PET WAY courier reserves the right to refuse transport of any pet due to misrepresentation at the time of scheduling as to the pet's ability to walk or stand of its own accord, or on a leash, and is of a size and weight that one person is able to pick up and carry.

I was initially hesitant about transporting my pet via Petway, but Miguel’s communication leading up to and during the trip was great. He answered pretty much every question and sent me pictures during Betty’s travel. The only question that remained unanswered was if he stays at hotels to sleep along the way and leaves the pets in the van or he brings them along. I know he does most of his travel by night while they sleep. I would definitely use him again for future travels.
