Why use Pet Express?
Convenience
is not the only reason to use a professional pet shipper. Knowing that
every detail is being properly addressed is even a higher priority.
Seeking the expertise of a professional can assure you piece of mind.
Inexperienced
shippers will face complicated regulations. Did you know that
regulations are set by the United States Department of Agriculture AND
that individual airlines can set their own regulations for domestic
travel? Do you realize international travel will have additional
regulations set by consulates, customs and quarantine agencies? Are you
aware that each of these policy setting agencies are free to change any
policy they deem necessary and change it as often as they choose with
no notice to the consumer?
None of these policy-setting agencies
are required to govern the other. That means that not even the airline
is required to share with you all of the set requirements needed to
assure a smooth relocation of your pet.
Pets attempted to be
shipped without ALL of the required regulations set by each of these
individual agencies are subject to being:
- Denied flying on their scheduled flight
- Refused entry at the destination airport, and returned to their original origin
- Not released from the airport after arrival
- Put into unnecessary quarantine stations
Shipments with these types
of complications are always upsetting for the pets’ family. These
shipments can then become difficult or impossible to fix and are almost
always very costly.
Pet Express goes to great lengths to make
sure that your pets travel is stress free. Pet Express is in constant
communication with all policy making agencies; we work with them on
daily bases. We confirm current airline regulations with every flight
booked and know the best routing and aircraft available for pet travel.
Our crate labeling system insures that your pet gets to the correct
destination. We track the travel and confirm your pets’ safe arrival.
In the unlikely event of an unforeseen circumstance we will know what
to do and notify you immediately.
Pet Express works hand in
hand with the pets’ owner to address each pets individual needs. We
communicate with the pets owners at length so that there will be no
unexpected surprises along the way.
We are pet care
professionals first and foremost. Pet Travel is not just an additional
service we provide it is THE ONLY service we provide and we do it well.
Pet Express had been satisfying our two legged and four legged customers since 1978.
