What Our Happy Clients Say
Repatriation after 16 years.
After 16 years living & working overseas, we recently repatriated from Hong Kong to Somerset, Wow, what can we say about Darren, apart from running a great legitimate & fully licensed business, with all requisite knowledge of the trade & border formalities, Darren showed absolute care & consideration not only to his paying customers, but also our furry friends. Nothing short of SUPERB, 10/10. It’s not easy moving 10,000km, but this leg of the journey, whilst long, was utterly seamless & ultimately stress-free.
Iain Brymer, HK
Great Service
"We live in Oman and from a rescue organisation we brought 2 dogs (rescues) and a cat back with us to the Netherlands. Darren and his wife met us at the arrival hall and drove them to their forever homes in the UK. The communication went smoothly and we all received updates on their well-being. It was a pleasant experience for all! Can highly recommend the service.”
Maggie, NL
An absolute trooper
Sunderland to Plymouth
Great price, very competitive. Our cats arrived totally chilled, didn't seem bothered about the journey at all. Darren was also very understanding and easy to deal with. It all went really smoothly and he didn't even need to take us up on the offer of a cup of tea when he arrived! Also, I'm pretty certain that if anyone tried to nab the cats, it wouldn't have gone well for them!

Does My Pet Have to Be with Other Pets?No. We offer options where your pet can travel exclusively with pets from your own family or even alongside you as the owner. This allows for a more personalised and stress-free experience for both pets and owners.
-
Do Owners Have to Travel with Their Pets?While pets generally experience less stress when travelling with their owners, we understand that it's not always feasible. Therefore, we also offer a dedicated service where pets can travel alone, ensuring they are well-cared for even without the owner's presence.
-
Does My Dog Have to Be in a Crate?Not necessarily. We appreciate the company of well-behaved dogs and allow them to sit with their owners, provided they are harnessed and securely hooked in. This ensures safety while allowing some freedom for the dog to relax.
-
Why Are Some Transporters Offering a Pet to Travel for £600 from Spain to the UK?This rate is typically offered by transporters who operate multi-pet transport services, meaning your pet would travel with several others. Our approach differs as we prioritise the welfare of animals by not crowding them with many others, which we believe is more conducive to their well-being.
-
I Want to Bring a Puppy to the UK. What Should I Know?Importing a puppy to the UK should be handled by a commercial importer to ensure compliance with all regulations. It's risky to accept services from those who are not certified as commercial importers, as there is a possibility of the puppy being impounded upon arrival due to improper documentation or procedures.
-
I Have Been Offered Cheap Transport. Why Should I Not Take the Offer?Be very careful. It's estimated that 80% of pet transport companies operating in the EU might be doing so illegally. Many people have encountered problems with such services and end up needing rescue operations. Always verify the transporter's licence and legal status before engaging their services.
-
Do Pet Transportation Companies Need to Be Licensed?Yes, licensing is required for pet transportation companies both in the EU and the UK. Some necessary licences include: Driver Competence Certificate Vehicle Inspection Certificate DEFRA Operators License EU Operators License EU Vehicle Inspection Certificate Additionally, proper insurance for hire and reward must be in place to operate legally. Many unlicensed taxi services might offer pet transportation without these credentials, which means their insurance might also be invalid. Always ensure that any service you consider has all the required licence and insurance to avoid legal and safety issues.
-
How long does it take for my pet to be transported via road?The duration of transport depends on the distance to be covered, and it varies from one location to another. However, we offer estimated timelines based on the pickup and delivery locations provided. This way, you can have a better idea of the expected duration for your pet's transport.
