Frequently Asked Questions

What makes Pets Travel the best choice for animal transport and relocation?

Pets Travel has more than 50 years of experience — half a century of making sure pets travel safely and comfortably. We’ve built strong, reliable partnerships with state vets, private vets, airlines, customs officials, and international agents. These connections allow us to navigate every part of the process smoothly, ensuring that whether your pet is moving across South Africa or heading overseas, they’re in the best possible hands.

Do you offer international pet transportation services?

Yes, we specialise in international pet relocation — taking care of everything from the moment your pet leaves your side to when they’re safely reunited with you. Whether it’s the UK, Europe, the USA, New Zealand, Australia, or further afield, we’ve got it covered. We provide custom crates designed to suit your pet’s needs, ensure top-tier veterinary care, and manage all travel logistics in line with IATA regulations. Plus, we handle all the documentation, quarantine requirements, and local regulations — so you don’t have to worry about a thing.

How do you ensure my pet’s comfort and safety during travel?

Every pet is different, so we create tailored travel plans to match their needs. We work with experienced animal behaviourists who assess your pet’s temperament to reduce stress. From custom-made crates that provide the right amount of space and security, to careful monitoring of your pet’s health, hydration, and nutrition during the journey, we leave nothing to chance. Whether it’s a cross-country road trip or a long-haul flight, your pet’s comfort and safety are always our priority.

Can you provide pet transport services in South Africa?

Absolutely! Our pet transport services cover the entire country — from Limpopo to the Western Cape. Whether by air or road, our transport options are designed with your pet’s comfort in mind. Our vehicles are equipped to handle long journeys and varied weather conditions, ensuring that your pet is safe and relaxed throughout their trip. No matter how far your pet needs to go, we’ll make sure they get there in the best possible way.

What types of pets do you transport?

We transport a wide variety of animals — from large dogs to small cats, and even some birds. Our team is experienced in handling different species and sizes, and we’ve built a reputation as one of the top pet movers in South Africa. Whether it’s a playful pup, a curious kitten, or a delicate bird, we’ve got the expertise to ensure a smooth and safe journey for your pet. And yes, we take care of all the legal requirements, whether your pet is traveling within South Africa or internationally.

How can qualified pet handlers reduce travel stress on my pet?

At Pets Travel, our expert animal behaviourists undergo specialised training in order to make certain that your pet is handled gently and confidently to reduce their stress and anxiety, guaranteeing that they can travel comfortably and peacefully, even on long-haul trips.

How do custom-designed crates provide comfort and safety for travelling pets?

With over 50 years experience transporting animals all around the world, our customised travel crates are sized and designed to meet the expressed needs and personality of your beloved furry friend whether they prefer to stretch out or cuddle up discreetly.

What role do expert veterinarians play at Pets Travel?

Since international travel for animals requires that pet owners adhere to strict veterinary regulations, particularly when it comes to vaccines, vets who specialise in such requirements can provide invaluable peace of mind and quick problem solving in an ever-changing regulatory landscape.
