Our Transportation Services

Maybe you don’t drive or your own car is off the road. Many taxi companies don’t allow pets so why not use our pet taxi services? Try a dedicated pet travel company with dedicated vehicles complete with Lintran safety cages for space and comfort. 

We can take your pet to the vets or groomers on your behalf so you don’t have to take time off work. 

Moving home and not sure how your pet(s) will get to their new home? Moving companies are great at getting your furniture and belongings to the new home but what about our furry friends? 

We can also assist if you need to collect a puppy or kitten from a breeder or if you need to rehome a pet due to change in personal circumstances. 

Whatever your pet transport needs, we can help. 

What We Expect​

If your pet has any known conditions we ask that you make us aware of these at time of booking. 

Cancellations must be made by 8:00pm the evening before the booking.

Advance payments can be by bank transfer. For payments on delivery we accept cash or card payment via our card reader.

Our Pet Taxi

We own modern air-conditioned vehicles that are regularly serviced. Depending on the size of the pet we can use removable cages like TransK9. We have experience transporting pets as small as kittens all the way to large dog breeds like Newfoundlands.

All our quotes are based on solo trips (no other pets) and direct journeys so that the travel time is kept to a minimum.

We also carry two sizes of pet carriers, ideal for smaller puppies and kittens.

Gary couriered our new puppy Dennis from our breeder’s home to us London as we were not able to make the journey and he was a fantastic help. Very quick to respond to any queries we had when planning his journey and delivered our little man in a very calm and comfortable state. Would highly recommend!

I arranged with Gary to collect a kitten for me from a breeder as I had no forms of travel to get to the destination. Gary is reliable, friendly and his service was good value for money. I would highly recommend him.

Puppy Transport
Gary recently brought our Corgi puppy home for us from the breeder in Wales as we couldn’t get do him during lockdown. Gary responded very quickly to my initial enquiry, and was flexible on dates to best suit us and the breeder. He was very helpful throughout, sharing information with us and using Google maps to share his live location so we could track progress when we wanted to. Fantastic service at a great price. Would definitely recommend and use his services again! Edit: I should add that puppy of course arrived safely, calm and happy despite a long journey!! Very pleased.
