Transporting a pet requires careful planning, preparation, and communication. At First Pet Travels, we follow a structured process to ensure each journey is organized, safe, and transparent for pet owners.
Below is a step-by-step overview of how our transport process works.
Step 1 – Booking and Registration
The process begins when a customer submits a transport request.
During booking, we collect essential details such as:
Pet type and breed
Pickup location
Destination
Preferred travel timeframe
Owner contact information
Once the request is received, a booking record is created and a confirmation is provided to the customer.
This confirmation includes a booking reference and instructions for the next steps.
Step 2 – Travel Requirements Review
Before transport can be scheduled, pets must meet travel requirements. This step is important to ensure safety and compliance with transport guidelines.
During this stage, we review:
Vaccination records
Health certificate requirements
Crate suitability
Identification and documentation
If any requirements are incomplete or missing, the booking may be placed on hold until the necessary information is provided.
Customers are informed clearly about what is needed and how to complete the requirements.
Step 3 – Transport Planning and Scheduling
Once requirements are verified, transport is scheduled.
At this stage, we:
Confirm the mode of transport (air or ground)
Coordinate travel arrangements
Provide estimated departure and arrival timeframes
Update the booking status
Customers receive updated travel information and can track the progress through the tracking system.
Step 4 – Transport and Monitoring
On the day of transport, pets are prepared and travel begins according to the scheduled plan.
During transit:
Transport milestones are recorded
Status updates are provided
Progress can be viewed through the tracking system
Our goal during this stage is to ensure the journey proceeds safely and according to plan.
Step 5 – Arrival and Delivery
Once the pet arrives at the destination:
Arrival is confirmed
Delivery arrangements are completed
The booking status is updated to delivered
Customers receive confirmation that transport has been successfully completed.
Tracking Your Pet’s Journey
First Pet Travels provides a tracking system that allows customers to view:
Booking confirmation
Requirements status
Transport scheduling updates
Transit milestones
Delivery confirmation
Tracking information is available at any time using the booking reference.
Important Notes About Travel Requirements
Transport cannot begin until all necessary requirements are verified. These may include:
Required vaccinations
Health documentation
Proper travel crate
Identification or microchip
If requirements are missing, transport may be delayed until they are completed. This ensures safety and compliance with travel standards.
