I recently used Delivery Animal to transport my dog from Poland to the USA, and I’m really happy with their service. I had tried to organize the trip on my own once before, but it didn’t go well — my dog was sent back because I hadn’t followed all the rules properly. It was a nightmare, and I had to pay the full cost to send my dog back to Poland.
So this time, I was really scared about messing something up again because the U.S. has very strict rules for importing pets. For example, the CDC requires that dogs coming from countries with a high risk of rabies have an up-to-date rabies vaccination and proof of it. There are also strict waiting periods after vaccinations — at least 30 days before entry in most cases. Additionally, depending on the country, you may need to get a rabies titer test to prove immunity, and that can take weeks to process.
If the paperwork isn’t 100% accurate or if the timing is wrong, your dog could be refused entry. It’s also important to note that certain dogs may require an import permit, which is another complicated step. If anything is wrong, the dog can be denied entry, and I definitely didn’t want to risk that again.
Delivery Animal really took the stress off my shoulders. They handled all the details for me, from the paperwork to ensuring my dog had all the necessary vaccinations. They triple-checked everything to make sure I wouldn’t face the same problem as before, which was a huge relief. Knowing they were in charge, I didn’t have to stress about missing any important details that could cause my dog to be rejected at the border again.
Another thing that really impressed me was the cost. When I first tried to handle the expenses on my own, including the plane tickets, fees, customs paperwork, and vet clearances, the total ended up being way more than I had expected. I thought I might save money doing it myself, but after everything added up, it was clear I wasn’t saving at all. That’s when I learned about Delivery Animal’s shared transport service. They send multiple dogs on the same flight, which allows them to get better rates with airlines, making the trip much cheaper. Thanks to this system, their price was far less than what I had calculated on my own, and I didn’t have to deal with the logistics by myself.
Overall, these guys made the entire process smooth and stress-free. After my last experience, I was so anxious about my dog’s journey, but they kept me updated throughout the process and were always available to answer my questions. The peace of mind they provided, along with the cost savings, made a huge difference. I’d highly recommend them to anyone needing to transport their pet internationally — they offer excellent service at an affordable price!
