Taylor
Melbourne to London, United Kingdom
Jetpets looked after the move of elderly chocolate Labrador ‘Taylor’ from the Mornington Peninsula, Melbourne to Swindon, UK. As he is over 16, we were very concerned about his welfare, but received great advice and support initially from Paige who managed the whole move, and from all of the pet handlers and staff who clearly are great at their work but also love the animals. Jetpets ensured we had the correct vet advice, a journey for Taylor with appropriate rest breaks given his age, and sure enough he arrived safe and very well on schedule. So a big thanks to all of the Jetpets team, we loved the constant updates, the photos of Taylor along the way which kept us updates and gave us real peace of mind. Well done to the whole organisation, and congratulations on delivering such great service.

Roxy
Brisbane to London, United Kingdom
Hi Dipkesh We were so excited to see Roxy today. We have been so happy with everything. From the moment I rang for a quote to the moment of picking her up when landed. She travelled well, enjoyed the updates from your team during travel and has settled nicely. Bit colder here so she has a new jacket and bed which she loves. Thank you for all your amazing effort in making Roxy's travel a pleasant experience and the peace of mind you gave our family through the transition of moving her to our new home overseas. Kind regards Simone

Bandit
Perth to London, United Kingdom
Bandit is with my husband in London. But first, I can’t be more happier and thankful to know that he’s healthy and alive. He was full of energy and so happy to see my husband yesterday at Heathrow, he cried with happiness that he was reunited with family again. He’s so happy and running around our London home. He get jet lagged later in the evening and crawled under the blanket as usual. Lol. I can’t wait to see him later today. I was so worried about the worse, considering he has never been out of my sight before, thank you so much Jetpets. Thanks for returning my hope. Jeremie

Billy
Brisbane to London , United Kingdom
Hi Emily My sincere thanks to you for coordinating Billy’s travel from Australia to the UK.  I am pleased to report that we are very happily reunited and Billy is enjoying his new home. Needless to say, he is not letting us out of his sight!!! After such a long flight and a long time in the travel crate, I can only imagine how soiled Billy was on arrival. When the handlers at Heathrow Animal Reception Centre brought him out to us, he had been bathed and was really fresh and clean. I was so reassured that they had taken such good care of him. I am so happy with the service provided by yourself and the Jetpets team and would definitely use your company again in the future. Thank you so much Emily. Kind regards, Kerrin
