What Makes Us Different
Our team members see the airline ground crews, forklift drivers and load masters every day. They are the ones who see to your pet’s safety once they are checked in for the flight. We take the time to make a personal connection with them for the best service possible.
Our handlers exchange cell phone numbers with the ground crew supervisor for real-time updates. Unforeseen or potential delays for travelling animals are handled immediately. Once a pet chewed through her kennel before boarding. The Cathay Pacific team called us directly, and we were able to switch the pet into a stronger kennel and “Margaret Rose” made her flight!
SC Pet Transport can track pet flights in the air. Some airlines even provide GPS trackers we can attach to the kennel. As true animal lovers, we treat each of our pets in transit as our own. We work hard to ease the worries you may have while your pet travels and, when possible, we even spend time with your pet to help alleviate their stress too.
We can often arrange transport, overnight boarding, local pet licenses or even a new veterinarian near your new home. As rules between countries governing animal import and export are often influenced by many factors, our office will help you make sense of them all should you decide to travel somewhere new.
Local Delivery to CA, AZ, NV, and More
Some families prefer their pets don’t fly. To accommodate these concerns, we provide local U.S. pet shipping and semi-local ground delivery.
For example, we drove special fish and plants to a new home in Seattle because they couldn’t fly. And a family with nine Samoyed dogs living in Utah asked us to travel by road to an agility contest in California as air travel was too stressful for the humans!
Southern California Pet Transport will create a solution regardless of your situation or special needs.
Pets On the Move
Your customized travel plan begins with questions, many of which you might not have considered:
- Is my pet kennel certified to fly?
- Are there rules I don’t know about?
- How do I clear customs when I get there?
Our team members research the best, fastest flight route options available. At SC Pet Transport, we prefer pets fly straight to their destination without changing planes. We look ahead for potential obstacles, even the weather.
SC Pet Transport pre-books flights, ground transportation, and veterinary or USDA appointments. Many of our pets travel on commercial airlines such as United, Delta, Lufthansa, KLM, Virgin, Cathay Pacific, British Airways, and Alaska Airlines. Usually your choices are dependent on your destination.
We Do the Heavy Lifting
You will be amazed by the amount of paperwork generated when moving your pet. Each country has its own rules, import permit requirements, health certificate criteria, and customs clearance procedures. We coordinate the document process with your vet to ensure accurate and timely completion.
On moving day we monitor the journey to ensure everything runs smoothly. SC Pet Transport provides you with tracking tools and updates from door to door whenever possible.
We prepare for unexpected weather and or flight delays. We have experienced every type of delay you can possibly imagine, none of which were foreseen: severe weather, volcanoes, labor strikes and more. We stand by ready to help with alternate plans or unexpected delays.
Only the Best for Your Pet
As the leading company for pet transport in Los Angeles, we care for your pet like our own. Pets who travel with us only fly on airlines with the highest standards. We do not fly any pet on an unreliable carrier to save you a minimal amount of money.
Our services include:
- Making flight arrangements.
- Preparing all import and export documents.
- Picking up/dropping off pets from/to your residence.
- Checking in the pet at the departure airport.
- Getting your pet cleared through U.S. Customs upon arrival.
The cost of transporting your pet through a pet transport company is calculated based on the pickup from and drop-off to airports, fees for preparing documentation, import fees, and travel ticket charges for your pet. Note that when you choose to fly your pet in cargo, you have to pay a fee based on the dimensions and weight of the loaded dog kennel.
Making travel arrangements for your pet transport all by yourself is certainly possible, but you will save a lot of time, money, and effort when you leave it to the professionals at SC Pet Transport.
Choose the company that specializes in the safe and secure transportation of your pet with a personalized touch. Contact us today.
