Love From Across The World

  • Transcontinental Pet Movers just flew my French Bulldog, Gaston, from California to Barcelona, Spain. They are very responsive, professional company and take care of the many details that are necessary to ensure your pet has everything needed to successfully move to a new country. I highly recommend them.

    We sent both our cat and dog (a big Golden Retriever) back to our home country with Transcontinental Pet Movers. Although we encountered some challenges due to some uncertainties in regulations and flights during COVID, People at Transcontinental Pet Movers were able to solve them professionally and quickly. Because of their IPATA and relevant qualifications, they could book different flights and adjust schedules quickly, which is very important nowadays. Would recommend to our friends whose pets need to travel.

    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.

  • 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.

    Timothy and his team were very professional and care for animals, they answered all of my questions on the phone and took time to explain the process. They were able to provide a cross country dog transport on short notice. The driver was clearly very experienced with dogs and took time at the pickup to get him comfortable with her which I really appreciated. The team is great at communicating throughout the trip and send regular updates I felt very relieved knowing the dog was in safe hands and would recommend them.

    Tim's invaluable assistance was absolutely essential for my puppy and me to successfully relocate from Los Angeles to Singapore. He was available round the clock, offering his support through email and phone communication. His generosity in helping us was remarkable, and I firmly believe that the value of his service exceeds its cost. Thanks again, Tim!

  • 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!!!

    I found Timothy extremely knowledgeable in all aspects of getting my dog to Australia from the USA. He provided me with a lot of answers and advice even before I'd officially signed up with Transcontinental and was always quick to respond to any confusion or queries I had throughout the whole process. I also appreciated his honesty, setting me up with realistic expectations when it came to costs, timelines and dealing with government agencies. Thank you so much for getting Taco back to his humans, we are beside ourselves with excitement to go pick him up from quarantine!!

    We would rate our experience with Timothy Woods at Transcontinental Pet Movers LLC as absolutely stellar. He was very attentive to our inquiries and needs as we exported our dog from the US to Australia. It is a very convoluted process and we are happy that we had Tim on our team as we maneuvered it. Well worth the money and would recommend him and this company to anyone.

  • We found Transcontinental flying our cat from LAX to PEK, which is a route within their expertise. They were patient along the way answering questions in each step, would highly recommend.

    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!

    If I could give these folks 20 stars, I would. Timothy took care of EVERYTHING down to the tiniest detail, and this was a hard, last minute, INSANE move. But my dogs ad my sanity were safe in his hands!! If you are doing an international trip with a pet, this is the person you want to call. There are so many forms, so many nitpicky little things--I promise you that the sanity and time that you get back by just letting Timothy’s wisdom guide you will be worth 10x what you pay for it!!

    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.

  • This pet consignment agency is very patient. They communicate directly with the doctors in my cat's clinic, which saves me a lot of time. The cat's return certificate is handled smoothly. It takes less than five days from departure to home in China, and a video will be sent to me in the middle. Let me always pay attention to the cat's state. It's really sweet and great!

  • Tim and his counterparts in China made the process of getting our friends cat back to her in the dates from China seamless. They were more affordable than other companies we had looked at using. They are so trustworthy, that we are using them again when my daughter travels back from China with her cat. Definitely recommend this company!

    These guys were great! I was in a tough spot when I was given the wrong drop off time by the airlines. I drove over to Cali from vegas and didn’t know what to do. I called these guys and they immediately helped me with airport drop off so I could make my trip back to Las Vegas. I’m so appreciative for their help.
