Why We Started.

Paws en route was started as an answer to a need for pet transportation after the personal struggle of our founder to find a service to transport her furry family member.  We dedicated time and spent endless hours researching pet parents requirements in order to offer a top quality service which put their pets transportation needs first.  We know pet parents have high expectations when it comes to products and services for their fur kids.  These expectations include high quality service, knowledge and experience, care, respect and safety.  Our delivery model and operating philosophy, R.E.S.T. Assured, addresses these expectations. R.E.S.T. Assured works, which is evident from our client testimonials and reviews.

What our customers are saying

I moved my pup from Canada to the UK and initially tried to sort through the mountain of bureaucracy myself… only to give up. I got quotes from all kinds of companies and Paws En Route was competitive price wise and the only service I found that would manage the dog’s trip in both countries. Fantastic. Mona was the agent I worked with and she was brilliant. Responsive at a moment’s notice. Catching problems before they were actual problems, troubleshooting with me — and quite frankly, calming my nerves about what I was worried would be a very difficult trip. With her it was a breeze. Could not have done it without you, Mona. THANK YOU!

I want to express my deepest gratitude to Paws en route for their exceptional help in reuniting me with my beloved German Shepherd, Bowzer. They went above and beyond, ensuring that every detail was taken care of, even going beyond their responsibilities to make sure everything was in order. A special shoutout to Mona for her outstanding care and understanding throughout the process. Thank you, Paws en route, for your dedication and compassion!
