About International Pet Relocation
I know your pet isn’t just ‘cargo’ - they’re family. Moving them across borders can get tricky, and sometimes feels like a maze with all the paperwork, rules, and those emotional goodbyes. That’s why I handle every step, so it’s less stress for you and your furry buddy.
What I Actually Do
- Start with a proper chat to understand what your pet needs, your travel plans, and timelines.
- Handle all the prep: vet checks, vaccination records, microchipping, and getting the right travel crate (no jugaad, only airline-approved stuff).
- Take care of pet import paperwork assistance so you don’t drown in forms.
- Book the safest, most direct flights, always checking pet-friendly routes and if needed, arrange door to door pet transport service.
- Constant updates, so you don’t have to keep guessing where your pet is.
- Once landed, help with customs, and even manage pet quarantine support if the country needs it.
Routes & Experience
Most of my trips are from India to the US, UK, Europe (including places like Poland and Luxembourg), UAE, and even by road to Nepal. I’ve done over 1,500 relocations, so not much fazes me now.
What’s Real
Not gonna lie, things don’t always go smooth - rules change, paperwork can be a pain, some breeds have bans, and flights get canceled sometimes. But I’ll be there for the chaos and the cuddles, making sure your pet’s move is as safe and chill as possible.

My Story
Hey, we’re Global Pet Cab. Three years in, and wow – what a ride. Pets are family, and we’ve made it our thing to keep families together, wherever they are. Some journeys are wild – like Flora chilling with us for 1.5 years before her London flight, or Frost’s emotional reunion in London. We’ve had heartbreak too, and we feel every bit of it. We do more than just move pets – we celebrate with ‘Paws & Puja’ and talk animal laws. It’s all about making life better for our furry friends.
