Sinbad reunited with his family

Customer Feedback

Thank you Petcarriers for delivering sinbad to us safely, here he is reunited with his brother and sister this morning at Denver airport. He was greatly missed for two weeks he was in your care, but we know he was very well cared for, so THANK YOU very much!!!

Dear Rebecca, My family and I would like to give you our sincere gratitude for the most professional job you and your company did in transporting our beloved dog, ‘Spike’ to Switzerland. To see the way he arrived rested and refreshed is a credit to you. We as a family did worry how much the long trip would take out of him. We had nothing to worry about which was such a relief. Once again thank you so much. Regards, Richard and Kelly Dowse.

Spike travelled from Geraldton to Berne (Switzerland)

I'd just like to thank everyone at Pet Carriers and Worldwide Animal Travel Vancouver. You did a fantastic job with our pup, after not even 24 hours and a very long sleep, she is back to her usual self and loves the snow.

How to measure your pet

You may not be aware that the airlines calculate their freight charges based on the size of the traveling kennel that is used, therefore it is imperative that you measure your pet correctly, as even a 5cm discrepancy can potentially result in a difference of hundreds of dollars in freight charges. Please see the below diagram on how to measure your pet. How to Measure your Pet.

Length in cm = Nose to root of tail - tail excluded
Width in cm = At the widest point
Height in cm = Floor to top of head while standing

Measuring Your Traveling Kennels

Most flights have a maximum crate size of 120cm x 70cm x 80cm. If your crate is too large we may be able to provide a suitable hire crate for your pet. (provided your pet can fit comfortably in a hire crate)
