1. All dogs must be at least 8 weeks of age to be transported.
2. Valid USDA Health Certificate issued by a licensed doctor of veterinary medicine within 30 days of our pickup, covering the entire pet transport. It must be available at pick up; we can not wait for the owner to obtain it when we arrive. If the pick up person does not have it available at pick up, we will have to go on with the schedule and the owner will have to reschedule with a 10% charge. Cancellations in such cases are not refundable.
3. We recommend a supply of food be sent with your pet, appropriate to the number of days traveled. We will supply crates, bedding and bottled water. (Our space is limited so we ask that no more than the necessary amount of food be sent.) Due to limited space on the vans, we can not take Crates, Totes, or other large objects, but you can send a toy or blanket to make them more comfortable – Please label with Pets’ name.
4.Should your pet require medical attention during transport, we are authorized to provide such care as is deemed necessary. We will make every effort to contact you prior to taking any emergency action. However, if you cannot be reached we will use our discretion to take such steps necessary to ensure the well being of your pet(s). All charges incurred for veterinary care will be your responsibility.
5. For the safety and well being of all animals on board, all pets must be lead trained and crated throughout the trip. We reserve the right to refuse transport to any animals that display extreme signs or nervousness, aggression, and/or health issues at the time of pickup. Our drivers cannot pick up animals if the required USDA Health Certificates are not available or not current.
6. Any information given over the phone is an approximate by the schedule at the time. It is never a guarantee. Please go by the 3-5 day window you are given.
7. Any coast to coast transports are estimated at a 3-7 day transport time from the date of pick up. All others will need to speak with the driver on an estimate for delivery (This is dependent on the schedule that you are on and can vary).
