Love From Across The World

  • Went through a long process with Timothy to relocate my cat from USA to Singapore.. Although it's long Timothy was always patient and professional, we finally had my cat landed after six months from the initiation of the process. Thanks a lot and would recommend others to go with Transcontinetal Pet Movers's pet transportation service!

    アメリカからオーストラリアへの犬の輸送でお世話になりました。 大型犬の海外輸送で不安も多く、多くの会社から見積もりを取りましたが、こちらの会社は料金がリーズナブルで、金額もとても明瞭でした。 また、レスポンスがとても速く、質問への回答も丁寧で、やり取りが非常にスムーズでした。海外でのペット輸送は分からないことが多く不安になりやすいですが、こちらの会社はそのような不安な気持ちにも寄り添ってくださる、とても思いやりのある業者さんでした。 最後まで信頼してお任せできる業者さんだと思います。特に、日本人でアメリカから海外へペットを連れて行くことを検討している方には、とてもおすすめできます。大切な家族であるペットを安心して任せられる会社です。 ----- Thank you so much for helping us relocate our dog from the U.S. to Australia. We contacted many pet relocation companies, but your pricing was reasonable and very clear. Your responses were always quick and helpful, which made the entire process smooth and much less stressful. International pet relocation can be overwhelming, especially when moving with a large dog, but you were very kind, caring, and supportive throughout the process. We truly appreciate how you understood our concerns and helped us feel reassured. We highly recommend your service to anyone looking for a trustworthy and compassionate international pet relocation company.

    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.

    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.

  • 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

    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.

  • 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 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.

  • 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!

    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.

  • Patient, carefulness, communicative, professional. Thanks for everything relocating my 8 yrs boxer, from Los Angeles to Shanghai, a three days journey. They prepared enough water with ice, icy pat and cooling box in the kennel. Enough supplies for my dog. They even packed the door sign for me lol.My dog is now at new country, new home, with me, safe and sound. Each dollar I paid worth it, love for dog. A house without a boxer is not a home! Thanks again!

    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 - 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!
