Also offering Doggy Days Out and other Pet Services in Kington, Herefordshire and surrounding area. When you need to get your pet to a destination our DEFRA licensed national pet transport service based in Herefordshire, UK is a good choice. We can get your pet to and from places such as the vet, groomers, boarding kennels, animal shelters, dog shows, or even breeders. If you are moving house you

can also benefit from using our pet transport service to anywhere in the UK. Based in Kington, not far from the England/Wales border, we are well located for transporting your pets in Wales, West Midlands, South West and North West England. However, we cover the most of the UK mainland. OUR VEHICLE

We have a fully equipped vehicle with 5 custom built cages. Each cage has an escape hatch in the unlikely event of an emergency. They also have anti-slip flooring and a quilted lining for your pet's comfort. We've even thrown in a few wool filled pads for their joints. The van itself is fully insulated and ventilated. There is also a viewing area so that we can see your pet from inside the cab. OUR OBLIGATIONS

We hold a DEFRA Animal Transporter Authorisation Type 2 'Conditional' which permits us to transport dogs, cats and rabbits anywhere in the UK. The total duration of the journey with the animal on board is 12 hours from on-loading to offloading at the final destination. It also means we have to adhere to strict animal welfare guidelines. To keep your pet safe, we will be stop and check on it throughout the journey. Your pet will be offered water, and food if necessary, and toilet breaks when needed. We endeavour to ensure your pet will have a comfortable and stress free ride. Although it's not mandated by DEFRA, we do insist that pets have up to date vaccinations prior to travel. We also recommend they are flea and worm treated. This is to avoid any potential cross contamination and to protect vulnerable pets. Unfortunately, we're unable to accept pets that are not fully vaccinated unless in an emergency. They must also be micro-chipped as required by law. Please note that we are not licensed to carry people so you will not be able to travel with your pets. For all your pet transport and relocation needs we're happy to assist.

This little star travelled from South Wales ๐Ÿด๓ ง๓ ข๓ ท๓ ฌ๓ ณ๓ ฟ to his brand-new family in Staffordshire ๐Ÿด๓ ง๓ ข๓ ฅ๓ ฎ๓ ง๓ ฟ. He took to his new home like a duck to water! ๐Ÿฆ†โค๏ธ

Being a 10-month-old pup, he did a little puppy mouthing, but he had the most incredible temperament for the 4-hour journey. ๐Ÿพ

๐Ÿ’ก A Quick Safety Note:He wasn't wearing a harness or collar initially on arrival, so one was put on him before setting off. It's a great reminder that wearing a collar and ID tag in public is a strict legal requirement in the UKโ€”toy breeds are absolutely not exempt! ๐Ÿ“œ

Many people think tiny toy breeds don't have to wear collars due to sensitive trachea issues. While medical considerations are important, relying solely on a harness poses a huge risk during transit, as dogs can easily slip out of them! The law is clear for a reason. Safety first, always!

Mission accomplished! ๐Ÿš๐Ÿพ

The plans changed, but the goal stayed the exact same: get these two beautiful cats to their new pet mum!

I was originally supposed to move them tomorrow (Sunday), but with the weather forecast hitting a scorching 29ยฐC, I knew we had to act fast. By law, you cannot transport animals when it is over 30ยฐC outside in a non-climate-controlled van. Since my van has ventilation only, waiting until Sunday would have been illegal and dangerous for the cats. Animal welfare always comes first! ๐Ÿ”ฅ

I reached out to the adopter to suggest shifting the trip forward to today. She immediately checked with the team at Mad Animal House Cat and Small Animal Rescue in Nether Kellet, and everyone jumped into action to make it happen. Teamwork makes the dream work! ๐Ÿ™Œ

Check out our Pet Transport Album to see the precious cargo in their crate, and check out my latest Reel to hear more about the legal temp limits and how incredible this rescue charity is! ๐Ÿ“ฃ

The best news? They have safely arrived in Northampton and are settling into absolute paradise. Theyโ€™ve got a massive new catio, a giant running wheel to play on, and four new feline roommates to bond with. Life is good! ๐Ÿ˜ปโœจ

(Check out our album to see a photo of these two sweethearts in their crate during the trip! ๐Ÿ“ธ)

The Reality of Pet Transport!

Behind the scenes at Muttmeisters... Swipe to see the damage! โžก๏ธ๐Ÿซฃ

On the left: The face of an absolute angel. A stunning Frenchie x English Bulldog cross traveling with us up to Scotland for Paws of Hope Bulldog Rescue. ๐Ÿ˜‡๐Ÿพ

On the right: What happens when that angel isn't quite crate-trained and decides to remodel the van! He completely shredded his cage lining and bedding pad during the journey. ๐Ÿ›‹๏ธ๐Ÿ’ฅ

But you can't be mad at a face like that! This is exactly why we do what we do. Anxious travelers need patience, reassurance, and a calm, quiet environment. Because he was our only VIP passenger on board, we could give him all the time and extra TLC he needed to settle down and arrive safely. ๐Ÿ‘‘โค๏ธ

The bedding didn't survive, but he made it to his destination happy, healthy, and safe. Mission accomplished! ๐ŸŽฏ๐Ÿ‘‡๐Ÿผ

๐Ÿด๓ ง๓ ข๓ ณ๓ ฃ๓ ด๓ ฟ CROSSING THE BORDER! ๐Ÿด๓ ง๓ ข๓ ณ๓ ฃ๓ ด๓ ฟ

Yesterday, MuttMeisters headed up into Scotland on another mission for Paws of Hope Bulldog Rescue! Check out the video passing the Gretna sign. ๐ŸŽฅ๐Ÿ‘‡๐Ÿผ

On board was an absolute gentleman - a Frenchie/English Bulldog cross. He had the sweetest temperament, but because he wasn't crate-trained, his anxiety kicked in and he tore his cage lining to pieces! ๐Ÿซฃ

This is exactly why our VIP Journey matters:
๐Ÿ‘‘ Single Passenger: No other dogs to escalate his stress.
๐ŸŒณ Extra TLC: Dedicated patience and reassurance to get him there safely.

Whether they need extra patience or a calm ride, your pets are always safe with us.
