Success Stories

Real families we’ve helped relocate their beloved pets worldwide.

I can't say enough great things about BestPetTravel and the incredible team of Hayley, Cindy, Hailey, and Allison. They recently helped ship my dog, Tuck, from Dallas, TX to Bahrain for a military PCS move, and the experience was truly outstanding from start to finish. Hailey personally flew with Tuck from Dallas to Las Vegas, ensuring he was calm and well cared for the entire way. Once in Vegas, Tuck stayed for two nights, and it was clear he was in loving, capable hands. They even sent regular updates and pictures, which gave me so much peace of mind during a very stressful time. After his stay, they transported Tuck to Los Angeles for his international flight to Bahrain, handling all the logistics with care and professionalism. Every step of the way, the team went above and beyond—not just moving a pet, but treating him like their own. I'm so grateful for their dedication and compassion. If you're relocating with a pet, especially internationally, I 100% recommend BestPetTravel. They truly made this journey safe and stress-free for both my family and Tuck.

The whole team at BestPetTravel helped us every step of the way in getting our 2 dogs sent safely to our new home in The Netherlands. They walked us through all the requirements and they handled the heavy lifting of paperwork and shifting schedules. The puppies arrived happy and worry free. Their pricing beat the competition and provided a higher service level. Thank you for getting our pups home safely!

Change is never easy. I decided to move out of the US with my boys Bill & Ted to embark on a new journey in my life. I've never left the country before. I had no idea what, where, why or how to do anything! After reading a ton of reports, I knew I did not want my boys to be in a cargo hold of a plane. This is how I found BestPetTravel. Hayley literally held my hand through the entire process and constantly reassured me of the care, comfort and attention they pay to all the animals they transport. They have made thousands of successful trips. I still cried like a baby watching my boys get picked up and driving away. I was so worried and scared that something was going to happen. Willie reassured that my boys were in the hands of certified and professional dog handlers and everything would be fine before they drove away. I received videos of my boys during their trip, the receiving company sent videos showing me two distressed, but comfortable and healthy dogs. My boys were delivered to me safely in my new home. I am grateful for Willie and Hayley for their kindness. They walked me through every step of the process and everything worked out beautifully. We are now happily living our new life on the beach! If I could give BestPetTravel a higher recommendation, I would. Bill and Ted thank you too for bringing them safely to be with their mom!

I cannot say enough good things about BestPetTravel and the support I received from Edward Jackson. From our very first interaction, it was clear that Edward truly cared about my situation and wanted to understand both me and my dog's needs. His compassion, patience, and professionalism went far beyond what I ever expected from a pet shipping company. This past year has been incredibly stressful, but Edward made me feel like I finally had someone in my corner. He consistently went above and beyond to make sure I felt supported and informed every step of the way. What also stood out to me was the cost. BestPetTravel' pricing was far below any of the competition I spoke with, and unlike others, they actually took the time to call me and discuss my options before sending a quote. Even more importantly, it was clear they were not marking up foreign customs costs to squeeze extra profit, which I saw happening with two other pet shippers. That honesty and transparency means everything when you're already under stress. Because of this, I'll be recommending BestPetTravel to everyone I know who faces the challenges of pet transportation. They've earned my full trust and gratitude, and I couldn't be more thankful for the positive experience they gave me and my dog.
