I was linked to your company by Aires, the global mobility company who supports me in the full transition and works with preferred suppliers. After our introduction conversation, I was very positively impressed by how personal this move for my dog was being cared for, and I felt really comfortable with PetRelocation handling the flight & move of Usha.
I was positively surprised by the personal touch, and I absolutely loved the slogan "we take your friend wherever life takes you". All the people at PetRelocation have a pet themselves, and I could really sense the emotional part of the move (me being comfortable with her traveling) was the biggest focus area of PetRelocation (instead of logistics only) which really was so helpful for me to be at ease.
Usha has gone through the whole change cycle in 5 minutes -- going from cold, rainy Netherlands to sunny Florida with the beach in our backyard. I think she is the happiest dog ever.
Usha wasn’t used to a crate, so through advice from PetRelocation we started to get her used to that 6 weeks before the flight so it was a safe haven once she traveled in it. We organized ourselves in such a way Usha arrived one day after our arrival so the pet’s arrival is not as stressful because you had a few hours to settle in, buy some food and so on.
The US is extremely pet-friendly and especially Florida with lots of places to go with your pet. The beach area in Jacksonville is amazing, and we have made use of Bark Avenue for her to stay a few nights when we were traveling. They take care of your dog as their own as well.
Thank you to Monique for sharing her pet travel experience with us. We wish you the best in your new home of sunny Florida!
