International Flight Nanny
Accompanied pet travel to and from the US
Solutions for your international pet travel needs. In-cabin flight nanny and accompanied cargo services with a human touch.
Let's turn your international pet move into an epic adventure.
We have safe and humane options for your next international pet move. Let your dog or cat fly with an experienced international pet nanny while you make your big move. We will be their personal travel companion and attend to all of their unique needs and your personal preferences.
In most cases, your small dog or cat under 18lbs can fly with a pet air nanny inside the cabin of the plane as a carryon. We choose the best airline according to destination and length of travel to give your loved one the most comfortable trip.
Have a larger dog? We may have options to travel with him on a flight as accompanied baggage or even help arrange a booking on a shared charter flight.
How much does a flight nanny cost?
Our international flight nanny services are based on airfare at the time of booking. Sometimes this is a round-trip flight and other times it may take us three flights to pickup and deliver and get back to our origin. We offer you a quote that covers all of our travel expenses, supplies, insurance, and our time. On average our service starts around $2500 for international airport to airport delivery.
What are the requirements to fly with my pet internationally?
The requirements are set by the destination country. In most cases your pet will need to be at least 15 weeks old to fly internationally. Most countries require a vet issued health certificate, microchip, and rabies vaccination. We can help you navigate the specific requirements for your pet move.
How does my pet go to the bathroom while flying?
Adult dogs have lots of options at the airport these days. Sometimes we use the pet relief areas at the airport, but most of the time a potty pad on the floor of the private family restroom does the job. Most pets hold their bladder while traveling. If you have concerns they can always use a pet diaper.
Can you take two pets on the plane?
Yes! It is very possible to travel with multiple pets. Two small dogs or cats can travel in one pet carrier on some airlines. Other airlines allow us to purchase an additional seat to take two pet carriers. Sometimes we use multiple pet nannies to get all of your pets home on the same flight.
Can you deliver my pet to my home?
We love to offer complete door-to-door pet transportation service when possible. We can arrange pet boarding, or offer pet sitting services before and after our trip. It is common to have a stay in a pet friendly hotel during our travels or even to help with last minute vet visits.
Can I travel with you?
Yes! We offer travel nanny services designed to accompany you and your pets on your flight. Sometimes you just need an extra hand or want the guidance of an experienced pet transporter to help you navigate your move. Let's chat about your dog transportation or cat transportation needs!
