Pet moving agent(s)

Post by smfriesen » Thu, 15 Jul 2010 3:49 am

Just wondering if anyone used a pet agency or mover when they brought their dog over from North America and who they used? We are trying to get our beagle mix from Pittsburgh to Singapore and I've been told that using a pet agent is often easier and worth the cost than doing everything on your own. Did anyone use Pet Movers? What was your experience with them?

Do a search of the threads using the excellent search function located at the upper right side of the page just under the Profile link. Been discussed in depth before.

To clarify, it's much better to use the search function that's nestled between the "profile" and the "new messages" links, rather than the one with the orange button. My recommendation is to STAY AWAY from PetMovers. You can find out all you need to know about them and the process of moving your pet here from the other threads you find in your search.

Feel free to PM me with any questions not covered in these threads...I became fairly familiar with the process after I brought my 2 cats and 2 dogs here from Toronto.

I am moving from Shanghai to Singapore next month with my cat. I have contacted Mitchville (went to see them when we were in Singapore) and they are helping me. It is expensive and some have said that the process is not difficult to do, however for piece of mind I have contracted them to help me through it. So far, they have been very professional and always answer my questions in a timely manner. I am much more at ease knowing that we are in their hands.
