Supporting Military Pet Relocation: Stress-Free Solutions for Your Move

Pet relocation procedures vary by country, making it crucial to plan ahead. Contact us as soon as your pet's move is confirmed to ensure a smooth transition. Some countries have specific requirements, such as blood tests up to 180 days before importation. With a copy of your PCS Orders, we can arrange for home quarantine in certain cases. Domestic pet travel within the USA is straightforward, usually requiring a health certificate dated within 10 days of travel. However, international military pet travel is more complex, with each country having its own set of rules. For example, countries like the United Kingdom mandate professional pet shippers for imports, while others like Hawaii, Japan, Australia, New Zealand, and South Korea require a Rabies Titer Test and may impose quarantine periods. We assist in planning to minimize or eliminate quarantine for your pet.
