About

ABOUT ME: My name is Dawn and my passion is helping others and animals. Growing up as a kid we always had some sort of animal in our house. From dogs and cats, to birds and snakes. We even had a tank full of hermit crabs. I have 2 degrees, one in social work and the other behavioral sciences. However the 9-5 can get lonely, so I decided to start traveling. Well what's better then traveling with animals? Nothing I tell you. 😀 My husband and I have decided to take our driving skills and our love for pets/helping others and start our company; Travers Family Transport. We pride ourselves in taking care of your possessions, whether it is your fur baby or a beloved family item. We are USDA certified and we carry pet insurance for those transports of your furry friends. MY PRIORITIES: The safety and well-being of your pet(s), and their timely delivery. We do drive an average of 700 miles a day. Weather and traffic are always the big factors if we can beat our average or not. CLEANING: The vehicle/kennel/bowls will be sanitized after each pet leaves to prevent the spread of diseases. I clean and disinfect everything before the next fur baby uses it. The health of your pet is important to me. PUPPIES: Puppies not fully vaccinated will be allowed fresh air, but not be allowed on the ground. They will use puppy pads or grass pads. We do ask before each transport the preference of a no paws on ground service for those puppies. Your pets safety and health is #1 priority. WEATHER: PLEASE NOTE… The weather is unpredictable sometimes. If the weather is too dangerous to drive in, such as black ice, thick fog, blizzard like snow, heavy rain, etc. Your date or time may be adjusted for safety reasons. ABOUT OUR TRIP: I realize how long and tiring a drive may be to your baby. It can even be lonely. I make sure each fur baby feels loved and cared for along the way. If you choose me to transport your furry friend to you, you can expect for it to be treated as if it were my own! You will also get pictures any chance I get! I will do regular stops for potty breaks every 3-4 hours, during which I will check on your baby, give them a walk and some fresh air, and ensure that their food and water and any medications are given! ALLERGIES/MEDICATIONS: If your loved one has an allergy or medications, please let me know. I want to make sure every pet gets the best VIP treatment possible BID PRICE: For my animal transports: We do offer 3 different services. We have a solo/VIP ride, a solo ride and a shared ride. We like to give plenty of time to our passengers for potty and stretch breaks. For our solo/vip, we do charge an extra $100 a night on top of our regular price given during conversation. Solo/vip rides, we do stay in hotels at night if the trip is longer then a day. For our regular solo and shared rides, hotels would only happen if the weather is either to hot or to cold to sleep comfortably in our equiped van. We do have a portable AC and heater for nights we are in the van. Any extra items, not food, a leash and collar, or litter, please disclose before booking. If extra items are included at pick up or after booking, extra fees may be possible Like my profile not my price? Talk to me see if we can work something out (share a ride for a lower price)! I will not have more than 4 pets at a time with a shared ride. If you have more then I pet and they can fit into a xl crate together, we can accommodate for that as well. PERSONAL CONTACT: CitizenShipper monitors our conversation and you can not share any personal information until you book with someone. Once the booking is complete we will be able to exchange personal information! We do also start a chat the day before pick up. You may add anyone you like to receive the messages and pictures we send throughout. PAYMENT: We do not ask for a deposit at booking. Our payments are split up in two payments. the first half at pickup and the rest 2 hrs before delivery. This can be paid through PayPal, venmo, zelle, or Cash. No checks, money order, or travelers checks. For our flight nannies, we do ask 70% at booking to secure all tickets and pet fee, the rest will be due at drop off For my non pet transports, I do ask for 50% of the payment 72 hours before pick up, and rest can be handed over at delivery. CITIZENSHIPPER FEE: CitizenShipper charges their own fee when booking. Unfortunately there is no way for me to wave the CitizenShipper fee. This fee does not go to me. It is a fee that CitizenShipper charges for using them. Cancellations:: If a cancellation is our fault and a deposit has been paid, you will receive 100% of the deposit, unless we have worked our a reschedule. If a cancellation has been made on your end, a 50% refund will be given if cancelled more then a week out, no refund will be given if less then a week out.

We are very happy that we chose Travers Family Transport to bring us our new member of the family! Their communication was excellent - we thoroughly enjoyed the pictures of the dog every few hours, and being updated on location each evening. If you are looking for a transport service, you should really consider Travers Family!!!
