Outstanding Service from Moving Animals and AirPets Brazil
There are not enough stars to express my gratitude to Moving Animals and their trusted Brazilian partner AirPets.
Our beloved Pretinha, a 13-year-old black mixed-breed dog and cherished member of our family, travelled from Zurich, Switzerland, to Rio de Janeiro, Brazil. Entrusting a senior dog to an international relocation company is not an easy decision, but from the very first contact, Moving Animals gave us complete confidence that Pretinha was in the best possible hands.
The entire process was handled flawlessly. Every detail, every document, every permit, and every logistical step was managed with exceptional professionalism. What truly sets Moving Animals and AirPets apart, however, is not only their expertise, but the genuine love and care they have for animals.
Throughout the journey, Pretinha was never treated as cargo. She was treated as a beloved family member. Their attention, kindness, patience, and compassion were evident every step of the way. Knowing that a 13-year-old dog was being looked after by people who truly care about animals gave us enormous peace of mind.
Today, Pretinha arrived safely in Rio de Janeiro, and our hearts are filled with relief, happiness, and gratitude. What could have been an incredibly stressful experience became a smooth and reassuring journey thanks to the incredible teams at Moving Animals and AirPets.
If you are looking for professionals who combine world-class expertise with genuine love for pets, look no further. We wholeheartedly recommend Moving Animals and AirPets.
Thank you for bringing our precious Pretinha home safely. We will never forget your dedication, care, and kindness. You are exceptional professionals and wonderful people.
With deepest gratitude,
Pretinha's family 🐾❤️

Moving Animals did an outstanding job relocating my dog Roxy (a 10-year-old pitbull mix) from Lucerne, Switzerland to Honolulu, Hawaii.

This was actually the second time I worked with Moving Animals. Five years ago they helped relocate Roxy from California to Switzerland, and that experience went so smoothly that I contacted them again when it was time to bring her to Hawaii. Having trusted them with two international moves now, I can confidently say they are extremely experienced and professional.

The Hawaii import process is quite complex, with strict documentation requirements, blood tests, and coordination across several flights. Karin guided me through the entire process step by step and was always patient with my many questions. Her knowledge of the requirements and attention to detail made what could have been a very stressful process feel manageable.

Sebastien and Marcel were fantastic when handling Roxy locally in Switzerland. They were calm, professional, and clearly care about the animals they transport, which made the handoff much easier.

Roxy’s journey involved several legs (Zurich → Frankfurt → Los Angeles → Honolulu), and everything was coordinated smoothly. Moving Animals partnered with Island Pet Movers in the United States, who did an excellent job receiving Roxy in Los Angeles and managing the final leg of the trip to Hawaii.

One tip for anyone planning an international pet relocation: start early and work with an experienced company that understands the destination requirements. Moving Animals handled all the logistics and coordination between countries, which gave me a lot of peace of mind.

Relocating a pet internationally can feel overwhelming, but the entire team made the process smooth and ensured that Roxy was well cared for every step of the way. I would absolutely recommend Moving Animals to anyone planning an international pet move.

We recently relocated from Switzerland back to Oregon, and we couldn’t have asked for a more supportive or seamless experience than we had with Moving Animals. From start to finish, their communication was clear, proactive, and timely, which gave us tremendous peace of mind during an already stressful move. Most importantly, our pets arrived safely and settled in quickly. We’re incredibly grateful for the care and professionalism of the entire team. I will confidently recommend Moving Animals to anyone planning an international pet relocation. Thank you again!

PET RELOCATION – EXCEPTIONAL EXPERIENCE

From first contact, Marcel demonstrated outstanding professionalism. Upon responding to my enquiry regarding pet relocation from Zurich to Dubai, he provided immediate clarity, a structured roadmap, and full confidence in the process.

The execution was seamless end-to-end. Marcel managed every detail with precision—from veterinary coordination to hotel pickup and airport delivery—ensuring a smooth, stress-free relocation for my pup, Dubai the Poodle.

What truly differentiated the experience was Marcel’s natural rapport with my dog. The trust and comfort my pup showed toward him reinforced that this was expert handling at the highest standard.

Thank you, Marcel, for removing all friction from what is typically a complex process. This level of professionalism should be the benchmark—particularly for pet handlers in Nice, France.

Exceptional service. Pure magic.

I cannot recommend Moving Animals highly enough for the exceptional relocation of my two senior dogs, Jesinka and Chanel, from Zurich to Dubai. From the very first conversation to the moment my dogs were safely reunited with me and my sister, the experience was nothing short of outstanding.

A special and heartfelt thank you to Marc, who truly went above and beyond at every stage of the journey. His professionalism, compassion, and constant availability gave me complete peace of mind throughout what could have been a very stressful process; especially considering Jesinka is almost 17 years old and Chanel is 14. Marc’s support from start to finish was remarkable, and it was clear that my dogs’ wellbeing was always his top priority.

I would also like to commend Sebastien for handling the pick-up with such care, patience, and gentleness. Knowing my senior dogs were treated with such respect and attentiveness meant the world to me.

Moving Animals are, without question, the best relocation partner you could ever have in Zurich. Their expertise, flawless coordination, and strong global network, partnering only with top-tier companies such as Blue Sky Pet Relocation, set them apart in every way.

If you are looking for a pet relocation company that combines professionalism with genuine love for animals, look no further. Moving Animals delivered excellence at every level, and I am deeply grateful to the entire team.

We cannot recommend Moving Animals highly enough! Sebastian and Marcel helped us relocate our two German Shepherds, Koda and Bare, from France to the United States, and they exceeded every expectation.

From the start, they were incredibly personable and genuinely caring. They understood our concerns about our dogs' anxiety and took proactive steps to ensure their comfort. We had specially fabricated crates made for our first move but the airlines no longer accepted them, so, they helped us obtain crates and delivered them well in advance so Koda and Bare could get accustomed to them before travel day. This was especially important since one of our dogs had previously chewed his way out of a crate—but thanks to their preparation and attention to detail, we had no issues whatsoever.

Throughout the process, Sebastian and Marcel were responsive, professional, and reassuring. When the airline made a last-minute change requiring us to fly into a completely different airport due to an inexplicable embargo in Chicago, they handled it seamlessly and kept us informed every step of the way.

What truly sets Moving Animals apart is how they go above and beyond. They didn't just transport our dogs—they made us feel cared for too. Sebastian even helped carry my luggage to the airport check-in counter and drove me to the airport. It felt like they were moving a member of their own family. 110% recommended!
