"My dogs could not have been in better hands! Esther arrived in perfect time. Made sure the dogs  were comfortable and warm. She then explained her journey plan to me. En route, Esther texted to let me know that all was fine and calm! When the dogs arrived at their destination, she sent me a picture and update on the dogs welfare. A thoroughly professional service, that I would unreservedly recommend. Esther was so lovely throughout! I would definitely use VIP again!"

Guy Mccoy

"Esther moved our six neurotic and needy cats two hundred miles across the country to our new home. Esther speaks fluent 'cat' and she invested a lot of time and effort in understanding their individual needs so as to make the experience as comfortable as possible for them.

She provides an excellent service and we would not hesitate to recommend her to anyone who needs safe transport for their pets."

Donna McEwan

"Brilliant experience using VIP Pet Travel from start to finish. Esther brought my  pup on 6hr trip to me and cannot recommend highly enough. Asking for info and details to make sure cared for him properly, kept me updated throughout whole process and the actual trip. Extremely professional and very caring and obviously loves animals which came through in all our communications. I would absolutely recommend 100% and use again. My pup transport was 6hrs from England to Scotland and he arrived healthy and bouncy. Thank you."

Victoria Crake

"Esther was fantastic! I was trying to find somebody to move my Mum's cats from Scotland to Hertfordshire in the middle of a stressful house move. I contacted a few companies and Esther instilled confidence from her first message, was happy to provide all information requested and I immediately felt that Mum's cats would be happy and safe in her care. As soon as I booked I knew I could relax and think about everything else.  Before and on the day of transport, she kept us updated with her progress. The cats arrived happy and safe and are now settling in to their new home. I would highly recommend VIP Pet Travel."
