Our Mission
Best International Pet Relocation Services researches, ranks, and reviews companies that move pets across borders by air and ground. The site compares real-world factors that change outcomes: destination-specific import rules, quarantine handling, airline booking access, crate standards, timelines, and total cost ranges for common routes (for example, US to UK, EU to Australia). Each review breaks down what the service actually does (paperwork, vet coordination, customs clearance, door-to-door transport) and what the owner still has to handle. Rankings are updated quarterly to reflect policy changes, airline embargoes, and shifts in service coverage. Methodology weights compliance track record, transparency of pricing and scope, communication speed, and problem handling when flights change or documents are rejected. Trade-offs are stated plainly: full-service options can reduce owner workload but often cost more, while budget brokers may require owners to manage vet visits, permits, and airport drop-off. Readers can use the rankings to shortlist providers, then match details like species restrictions, brachycephalic policies, and destination experience to their own move. See the current rankings and individual reviews to compare services side by side before requesting quotes.
