Love From Across The World

  • If you need prompt support and advice on transferring your pet internationally, Tim would be the go to person! Tim helped with the transfer of my dog from US to Singapore. Due to complications, we did experience unplanned events. However, throughout the process, Tim was supportive and able to provide sound advice which is a relief to the already stressed situation. Communication was prompt and timely which definitely helped! Picture of my baby arriving safely at destination! Thank you Tim!

    My furry kids (a cat and a guinea pig) have arrived in Singapore from US. The process was easy and smooth. Timothy is quite responsive and professional. I would recommend this agency to everyone who needs to export their pets.

    Professional, experienced. There are so many "company" out there provide animal/pet transport service, and of course I've reached out to multiple carriers before finalized my pick. The reason why I pick them among all the other carriers is because how they treat their clients. I am new to this so I want someone that cares, and that is what I feel through out our conversation. Their respond time is the fastest, explanation is the clearest and detailed, which is why I say professional and experienced in the first place. Highly recommend!

  • Transcontinental was able to help me move my dog from California to the UK on pretty short notice with a plethora of difficulties and restrictions as a result of COVID. My representative, Timothy, was extremely communicative and timely and even sent me photos of my dog during his journey to help put my mind at ease. I would highly recommend them to anyone looking to relocate a pet abroad!

    Really, really like these guys. Although we didn't eventually go through with the whole process because our pet had some relapse seizures and was ultimately deemed unsafe to fly, we nonetheless had a wonderful experience with Timothy and Co. He is incredibly fast, responsive, knows his stuff, and answers emails point by point and never misses anything. And, to boot, his prices were among the best. We were intending to take a pet to Australia, which has arguably the toughest restrictions, and Timothy navigated it all with a breeze. You really can't go with these guys. Just give them a call, wherever you are intending to take your beloved pet.

    Experienced, professional, and responsible. They helped transit my cat from SFO to Hong Kong smoothly, and patiently helped me track all the paperwork. I'm glad that I chose them over other pet transport companies. Highly recommend anyone who needs to transport their pets internationally.

  • Dusty was sent back to Shanghai from San Francisco. Finally! His condition is good and shout out to transconcept and took really good care to my buddy. This is a long trip for pet, do not rush to travel, give them some time. And wish your pets will get back to ya.

    We had a great experience - everything we had to do was clearly explained, and everything else was taken care of by Timothy and his team. Timothy is meticulous over the details which really helped me feel like I didn’t have to worry about anything (especially because the UK is quite finicky over vaccination records). Our cat was picked up from our house in San Francisco and safely delivered to London Heathrow. We received lots of pictures along the way when possible, and we felt she was in safe hands the whole time. Truly as stress free as it could have been. Can’t recommend Transcontinental Pet Movers enough!

  • Recently, my sweet boy Elio flew from San Francisco to Malaysia via cargo. It was his first international flight and with the help of Timothy, we managed to square out all the paper works right away. Timothy is very knowledgeable in regards to all the minute details that are needed for a smooth sailing journey while providing answers to the many questions I had. I highly recommend Timothy and his company.

  • Transcontinental did an exceptional job flying my cats to São Paulo, Brazil, from San Francisco. It wasn't easy - we had to deal with a crazy connection in Frankfurt due to temperature restrictions in the US, as well as a last minute embargo by Lufthansa. But Timothy was always there for us, and made sure we felt confident everything would be all right.

    Big thank you and greatly appreciate all the hard work that Transcontinental did for my cat traveling from LA to Beijing, thanks to their professional arrangements, my cat safely arrived before Christmas, so we could spend the holiday together:) Pet international move is complicated, which could be affected by export/import policies, flight companies, weather….. My cat flights were cancelled 2 times before, I felt so much frustrated, stressful, but Pet Transcontinental took care of all the paperwork and logistics, provide me new solutions, arrange new flight, so my baby cat finally back home with me~~ I highly recommend Transcontinental Pet Movers, they are super reliable, and treat your little ones like family!!!

    I cannot express how grateful we are to Timothy and the Transcontinental Pet team for all their hard work on our behalf. Not only did they get back to us promptly (and weeks later I am still getting only initial contacts from other places we reached out to) but the price was within our budget and accurate. After a number of missteps on our part, and with Timothy's help, we got my son and his cat back to the UK in far less time than we had been warned of by other pet movers! When the port was closed due to Covid and the pet health certificate was due to expire, Timothy simply loaded the cat into a van and drove her from San Francisco to LA so she could fly on the same day as my son's flight and arrive at Heathrow at very nearly the same time. Yes, it was a (reasonable) extra cost, but regardless, that is truly going the extra mile. He sent us photos of her resting in comfort for her one overnight of boarding, and it really helped set our minds at ease. I would highly recommend Transcontinental Pet Movers and cannot thank Timothy in particular for his problem solving, hand-holding, and communication at every step in the process.

  • Very helpful. The company kept in touch until I received the animals. I highly recommend. them. Of all the companies they communicated with me the time it took to set up and receive and deliver. You want your animals taken care of use this company. You'll be making the best of decisions

    From day one of inquiring about their pricing, they have been nothing but helpful. They even found a flight for my cat on the same day I was meant to leave. Even though in the end, I was unable to move my pet due to visa issues, they went above and beyond to assist me. Their responses were timely and always courteous. I would definitely go through them right away instead of looking for another company. Thank you for all of your hard work!

    Timothy is honestly the best! After contacting over 10 agencies Transcontinental was the only company that made me feel like they actually cared. Timothy worked with me over 3 different time zones and bent over backwards to help me. Even before we enlisted his services he took the time to explain the process and ways we could go about the big move. He was always around to answer my calls and texts, the man never sleeps! I truly felt like my dog was with a friend. He even waited outside the endorsement office for hours just to speed things along. His honesty was so refreshing, I felt confident in his ability to get my dog home. Above and beyond expectations. Exceptional service and care for an incredibly fare price. 10/10 would recommend absolutely anyone to use Transcontinental Pet Movers. They made a complicated process easy. Thanks Timothy and team!!!

    We had a great experience with Timothy and team getting our pup from Portland OR to Christchurch NZ safely. Moving is stressful, but getting your dog to another country is a whole new level of stress and I am so happy we trusted Transcontinental Pet Movers with this overwhelming task. Timothy saw to all the details, making sure everything happened, this is no small achievement, his logistical expertise and attention to every minute detail got our lil’guy safely to NZ.

    We recently sought the assistance of Timothy at Transcontinental Pet Movers to help us navigate the complex process of relocating my daughter's beloved cat to the UK. From the outset, Timothy was consistently available for consultations via phone or email, and he promptly addressed any questions or concerns we had about the export process. In hindsight, I would have entrusted Timothy with handling all aspects of transportation and paperwork. The do-it-yourself approach proved to be incredibly stressful, as there are numerous details involved in moving a pet internationally by cargo. This includes the completion of paperwork, arranging cargo shipping, adhering to kennel specifications, coordinating with clearing agents for customs clearance, navigating heat embargoes, and managing concerns about potential flight delays or cancellations. Throughout the entire process, Timothy's guidance provided much-needed reassurance that we were on the right track to ensure a safe journey for my daughter’s cat. Ultimately, the cat arrived in the UK on the same flight as my daughter, and everything went smoothly. We are grateful for Timothy's expertise and professionalism, and we highly recommend Transcontinental Pet Movers to anyone facing a similar situation.
