Following recommendations by my Vets Practice and a family member I made the decision to use PetAiruk Ltd. We were moving to USA and had left a couple of days before Maggie, our dog. She was being collected from a family member in North Wales so we went for the Gold package as it seemed the easiest option with collection to transport her to Heathrow. This in itself was a long journey and we were informed that we would get a message halfway, on the water stop, as to how she was doing. We heard nothing. We were already in the US at this point and were told that we would get regular updates on Maggie's progress but we heard nothing nor did the family member who was looking after her. I was quite worried as she is a little nervous dog especially around unfamiliar surroundings. I had to email Pet Air as it had gone passed office hours and then had to wait all night until I got a reply. They then sent an email and 2 photos of Maggie. One of which she looked absolutely terrified which made me feel even worse but luckily the last photo she looked a little more calm. The agent then got the handler to message me the morning of her flight which she did and this made be feel a bit better. When we collected her she was so excited to see us and happy to get out of her wet crate. It has taken a couple of days for her to settle and the experience hasn't been a pleasant one for her or for me. All the information and admin side of the process with Pet Air were ok but the updates on her wellbeing were very disappointing. Since her arrival I haven't received any correspindence either. I don't know but maybe I was expecting a thoughtful - "hope Maggie arrived safe and well and thank you for using Pet Air UK Ltd" or something similar! Not much of a Gold package if you ask me!

Dear Helen. We normally contact the person in UK with the updates as this prevents us from waking or disturbing the owner/person abroad who can be anywhere in the world and in any time zone. In the past, we have had angry responses from clients who have been woken. And we do send our clients an email after the flights to ask for feedback and check how the little ones are doing. But i can see that this email was not sent to you. We did send you pictures of Maggie sitting on one our our vet nurse's laps having a cuddle and we did stay in contact until her flight left UK. I think the three star rating is about fair. We arranged the flight and planned the journey beautifully, but we could definitely have improved our communication with you and this is great feedback for us. Please give Maggie a tickle from us and thanks again.

Moving a dog internationally is stressful. You're going to wake up in the middle of the night with a random question and want to work with a company who will reassure you. Petair UK did just that. They made the process straight forward, easy, and my dog arrived (London > NYC) happy, healthy, safe and no worse for the travels. I've never used a transport company before but will never ship an animal without one. These guys are amazing and make a tedious/stressful experience much more manageable.

I can not thank Darren and the team enough for helping us move our precious pups to Canada from the UK! Sending our pups to Canada was the scariest part of our relocation move. I’ve read all sorts of stories online about dogs not making the travel or having a very distressing travel and it made me so nervous sending my dogs to Canada. After lots of research I chose Pet Air as they are the only company run by vets, and not just a shipping company moving cargo, and they are the only company who genuinely cared about the wellbeing of my dogs. I read online about the horrors of BA and wanted the dogs to fly with Air Canada, and Pet Air was more than happy to arrange. I had a few requirements which Pet Air was more than happy to oblige, and without the extortionate price tag! The pups were picked up by this very lovely lady driver who really showed an interest in my pups - in fact Bella who is normally a very anxious dog, took a real shine to her! The pups were put safely into the van and taken to Pet Air facilities. I was then sent pictures of my pups before my flight to Canada, reassuring me that they were fine. That made my flight so much better! When the pups were on their flight, I was sent a text letting me know. When I picked my pups up, they were happy and relaxed. Their personally made crate was clean and they had loads of water available for them! They were not traumatised by the journey at all! I can not recommend Pet Air enough to everyone. I pretty much researched and spoke to every Pet transport company in the UK, and I am so glad that I chose Pet Air. Now our pups can enjoy the adventures in Canada with us! Thanks you Pet Air. Definitely worth every star!!

Used them twice now. Once out to Ivory Coast and once back to UK from Senegal. Don't honestly think we could have done it without them. Full customer service from start to finish. We dealt with Hayley first tine and Sarah second and both were absolute stars, nothing was too much trouble and they helped with everything. They actually cleaned up the cages and pets for us before delivering them in excellent health and some of ours have complications too. The guy who drove them contacted us the day before he brought them up, updated us on the journey and was anyway on time and just like the rest of the team, very friendly helpful and professional. I wouldn't personally use anyone else. These guys are the industry leaders in my opinion and they set the standard.

To Darren and the team at Petair UK, Well, we made it to Canada! The decision to bring Georgie and Dubh with me when I emigrated to Calgary wasn’t one I made lightly. I researched pet relocation agents for months and questioned whether it was the right thing to do for them. But in the end I knew I couldn’t leave them behind. The reviews for Petair UK were excellent. I asked endless questions and made many phone calls to you (sorry!) Dropping them off with you was the hardest part but you assured me all was in hand and let me know when they were safely checked in. I think they travelled better than me! I was sick with nerves but when I collected them at the airport they were relaxed and were even nibbling on some hay in their crate. They caused quite a stir at the airport and there were a few raised eyebrows when we cleared customs! They have settled in so well and do not even seem to realised that it was any different to a car journey at home. All I can say is ‘thank you’, from the bottom of my heart, for helping me move my precious cargo. Lee-Ann

In-cabin travel plans fell apart, but I was able to arrange for alternate travel for my cat within a matter of hours. My own travel was only delayed by a day and I was reunited with my pet within a week and a half. For what I consider to be a very reasonable price, all of the handling, documentation, and flight scheduling was sorted with almost no further effort or input from me. A truly easy process, and my pet arrived both healthy and happy in a quality crate.

The Petair Team helped to make a very stressful situation much easier by keeping us informed about exactly what would happen before our cat’s journey began and then keeping in contact with us right up until the time she was checked in. I can’t thank them enough and wouldn’t hesitate to use them again.

I would highly recommend PetAir UK. They were absolutely fantastic. Great communication throughout and made me feel very cared for especially as it is quite stressful thinking about how our lovely dog would cope. We got lots of notifications along the journey from London to Oz and videos of Lola which were an added bonus and a great personal touch. Great company!

Petair helped us with relocating our cat from London to Dubai. From start to finish the staff were professional and extremely easy to communicate with. Our cat arrived safely and without any issues. Would highly recommend their services.

They were very good at taking care of all the documentation, and our pets arrived safe in NZ. However, I found them very hard to deal with. They refused to answer direct questions and concerns I had. Also, I was very upset at the way they transported our cats within the UK (in the back of a van, unsecured so sliding about. Also their courier hadn't been told to bring their crates, so they had to go in their small cat-carriers that we used to take them to the vet.

Dear Symon I am really sorry that our service did not live up to your expectation. I can see that you emailed often and we responded quickly and you seemed happy with the responses at the time. In terms of the road transport, we discussed this on the day of the collection and we agreed then (as we agree now) that this was unacceptable. We acknowledged your concerns immediately and provided pictures and feedback for your cats when they arrived safely with us. This has never been reported before now and should not and will not happen again as the pets' comfort is the priority. Once again, please accept our apologies and please be assured that this is far from normal.

I would like to thank Emma and Darren and the rest of the team for the great customer service. The whole process of moving Pibe, Pibi and Blackie from firstly Spain to the UK and then their onward journey to California was made very easy. The two dogs and cat arrived very relaxed at LAX last week and by following your very clear instructions we had cleared customs and were on our way home within 90 minutes after their flight had landed. I would have no hesitation in recommending PetAir and look forward to talking to you again early next year when my other two dogs will be coming out to join us. Thank you Sandra

I can not thank Catherine enough for all her help and support.Getting my 3 dogs to Auckland..I was using another company to start with because they where cheaper and I was trying to save some cash..It was a big mistake never again it cost us more in the long run as they did not have a clue what they where doing..But thank god I found pet air to sort things out to get my girls out to nz..I was reassured, asked lots of questions and they where all answered. If Catherine could not answer she would find out and get back to me asap..I could not recommend Pet Air enough thank you xx

Petair UK helped me get my cocker spaniel to Saudi. I was able to work in Saudi whilst they arranged everything. They kept in contact throughout the whole procedure and answered all my questions promptly. Thank you Pet Air for this process easy!

Pet Air UK were so easy to deal with by email. I moved my dog to Australia with them, almost three years after I moved myself. Coordinating it from the other end of the world was challenging, but the team at Pet Air UK gave me a clear set of directions and a timeline to get everything in place ready for the move, and detailed explanations of everything so that I always felt as though I knew exactly what was happening and why. The transport crate that was built for her is excellent, too - and will be used for car journeys for many more years to come. An added bonus! Most importantly though, Pet Air UK made me happy by safely getting my dog from Norfolk to Melbourne, without a glitch.

If you are worried about shipping your pets, don't be ! You have found a great company here! We moved to the US 2weeks ago and were worried about shipping our 2 dogs and cat to Atlanta. From the moment of the quote till the day our pets departed their Windsor centre, their service was amazing . Firstly their price is very competitive, secondly they respond to email promptly and nicely, thirdly when you arrive at their centre you can see how much they care about the pets entrusted to them. Nothing is too much trouble and they have made a complex and scary process an easy one. Finally the crates they tailor make are really nice and roomy, our pets liked them so much we decided to give them a lick of paint and keep them as dens for when they need private time. We couldn't recommend Petair highly enough and are very grateful for their hard work!
