We Love Pets Too!

Our pets are family

When you adopt or buy an animal, you make a commitment to it. You take on the responsibility of looking after that pet, ensuring its health and happiness for as long as it lives. In return, it provides you with so much happiness.

From a cat curling up at your feet at the end of a long working day to a dog walking happily by your side around the block, pets of all shapes and sizes bring so much joy into our lives, and it’s impossible to leave them behind when we make a move and we wouldn’t want anyone to have to make that choice, that’s why we do what we do.

We Do This Every Day

All part of what we do for you

Boarding

Often a family may have to move before their pet’s waiting period has been met.

We can offer boarding for clients who need to move prior to their pet’s ability to move, or for those who need housing secured for their family. Please inquire early as boarding space is limited.

Travel Crates

If you do not already have airline approved international travel crates for your pets, we will help you to ensure you get the right crate.

For our larger dogs we offer custom wooden crates built to specifications for your dog’s comfort.

Several countries also have their own requirements in regard to the type of crates they will allow for import.

We ensure each country’s compliance is met. If your pet is not already crate trained we suggest you obtain a crate as soon as you are aware of your relocation and start this process right away.
