  • They are experienced and professional. They did an excellent job moving our cat from US to UK.

    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.

    Fantastic service from this team, in particular from Zeight and Timothy. They helped me move my husky from Phoenix to London, and guided me through the entire process. My pup arrived safe and sound!

    I cannot recommend Transcontinental Pet Movers enough. They were very diligent and aware of all the paperwork that had to be done to ship my pet to me in Belize. They were always responsive, timely, and very kind. Special thanks to Zeight, Timothy, Xiao, and Myka ! I would 100% percent use they again and I will be sure to recommend them to anyone I know who needs a pet shipper.

    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!

    5 star service from Transcontinental Pet Movers. Timothy helped us with a difficult move from Chicago to Perth, Western Australia for 3 cats and an elderly dog, and all arrived in great shape after extended travel! Timothy was meticulous in ensuring all documents and requirements were completed to meet strict Australian import laws, and was very flexible in helping us with boarding our pets in LA during US interstate travel. Additionally, Timothy provided exceptional service to ensure our animals were comfortable before the long flight from LA to Melbourne (where the animals were to be quarantined). Timothy was extremely responsive throughout the entire process, replying to phone call and email questions within the day sent - this really reduced our stress levels during what was a really stressful move for our pets and for us. We spent a lot of time researching other movers at the start, and it was Timothy's patience and responsiveness to our questions which led us to do this complicated move with Transcontinental Pet Movers - the value of this, and their genuine concern for our animals well-being, was far beyond the other providers we spoke with. And Transcontinental Pet Movers did not let us or our pets down!!! A pleasure to work with and thoroughly recommended.

  • 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!!

    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.

    I could not recommend Cordelia and her team more. They know this business and all its nuances. We had a paperwork issue in that my baby Bear would not be able to get on the plane with me, I was upset, crying and worried out of my mind as we were moving from the USA to Ireland and we had to get on the plane. We missed the deadline to submit 1 page of the paperwork. After Cordelia calmed me down she drove straight to my vet got the original needed drove back to SFO and GOT MY BABY ON THE PLANE WITH ME. She is super woman and understands her business, and the precious cargo they organize for their customers. If you need to freight an animal THID is the ONLY company to call

  • Moving countries is tough already, and I had no idea how intense the moving process for pets would be. Thankfully, I turned to Timothy. He went above and beyond, always answering promptly, and ALWAYS knew the answer to any question. He took initiative and worked directly with the vet to make sure my pup got safely to me in the UK. With regards to Timothy - I can honestly say, there is no room for improvement because he already brings the best service you can think of. If you are looking for help with moving your pet, I wouldn't look any further than Transcontinental Pet Movers.

  • Moving is stressful. Add a cross-country move with your dog on top of that and it becomes even more stressful. Timothy and Transcontinental Pet Movers made our move a breeze. We had to board our dog, Luna, with them overnight and Timothy was so fantastic, sending us regular updates with photos and videos of Luna up until her flight took off. He took care of the paperwork and logistics of shipping our pet in cargo, always prepared with a solution and recommendations. I could not recommend TransCon enough!

    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!!

    Excellent company! After I was one of the victims from a scam company (All Paws Express) and had a horrible experience it was very scary deciding in which company I could trust with my pet. You can definitely trust Transcontinental Pet Movers. Tim and Michael are amazing. They helped me out and made possible the transportation in short notice. They were as transparent as it gets and communicated clearly, which helped with the stress of moving my dog. They kept me up to date with every step and send me pictures of my boy Lennon as I couldn't be with him when taken to the airline. They treated him like family and made possible for us to be reunited. I can't thank them enough!
