Vanessa is excellent at what she does. We relocated our large black lab and Australian cattle dog mix from San Francisco to Auckland, New Zealand. We actually had tried to move our dogs back in 2020 when we were taking 5 months maternity leave in New Zealand, but had an issue with Bascom’s titre test. After that experience and how Vanessa had helped us retest quickly we knew she was the only one to help us with our permanent move back to New Zealand in Nov 2023.
New Zealand has VERY strict rules and what tests are required and when. The process is time consuming, confusing and downright difficult to navigate without someone who does this regularly – which Vanessa does. Vanessa would get in contact with our vets and help navigate them. We ended up also using her recommended vet to make sure we had the final vet visits on time (and it was a lot cheaper than the SPCA vet). Vanessa came to the final vet visits, picked up our dogs on the day of the flight, and sent us updates and photos of our dogs to alleviate our worries. Our dogs have arrived and after a 10 day quarantine are loving their new home! Honestly could not have done this without Vanessa- thank you so much!

I highly recommend Premier Pet Relocation for their services. We recently had our dog relocated from Phoenix to Dubai through their assistance. In order to meet the in-country regulations, it was necessary to arrange ground transport from Phoenix to San Francisco for the Vet Exam and other requirements. Vanessa, Eldridge, and the team made the process incredibly smooth. Despite me not being in the country, they took care of picking up our dog from the kennel, collecting his results from our local vet, and coordinating all the necessary transportation and tests to ensure a smooth journey for him to Dubai. I didn’t realize how stressful pet relocation could be, but Vanessa and her team addressed my fears. They consistently provided me with updates, including pictures and other relevant information. Finally, we encountered a last-minute issue with the crate, and they promptly assisted in accommodating the necessary adjustments to ensure his smooth boarding onto the flight. I highly recommend their services.

Recently my wife and I decided to retire and move to the Philippines. So, we sold our home and most of our belongings and prepared for the new journey in our lives. Moving internationally can be highly stressful for humans but imagine how much more stressful it can be when you have pets to bring along, especially for the animal.
It requires quite a bit of thought and planning. But if you research and plan your move, you should be able to make it a lot easier on both you and your fur babies. That is where Vanessa with PREMIER PET RELOCATION comes in. She is an expert in the rules and regulations for transporting pets to different countries. All airlines and governments have other protocols and require pets to meet specific health requirements to travel and enter the country. Hence, Vanessa and her amazing team were able to help us collect all necessary health documentation required. Not only that, but she had contingency plans for any flight delays or cancellations. We also ran into many snags created by an airline (I promised my wife that I was not going to mention the airline’s name, but I was so tempted. They are terrible). Vanessa was able to come up with workaround plans and made it happen! She was so patient with us.
She also shepherded our fur babies through the arrival process by providing the necessary documentation for customs. Vanessa’s aim from the beginning was to make the transportation process as safe and stress-free as possible for our three boys and us! Words cannot express gratitude for Vanessa’s care for our boys and us. She went above and beyond her regular duties. Our flight was a few hours before our boys’ flight, and Vanessa was kind enough to board them, take them to the airport, and check them in for their flight. I even had a last-minute business transaction that had to happen before our flight, and if it weren’t for Vanessa, it would have been a disaster. She helped me overcome that issue that had nothing to do with her contracted initial services. I could go on and on, but I realize I am already getting wordy.
Folks, do not attempt a pet relocation, especially an international one, without Vanessa’s help and PREMIER PET RELOCATION. She is compassionate and caring and genuinely loves animals. Her services are worth every dollar and then some. Most other pet relocation services are scams. DO NOT TRUST THEM.
We highly recommend PREMIER PET RELOCATION!
Vanessa, again we thank you, and we love you!
