safe and reliable shipping for your furry friends
At Paws on Wheels Pet Transport, we believe that every pet deserves to be comfortable and happy on their journey to their destinations.
My name is Heather, and I am the founder and owner of Paws On Wheels Pet Transport. I've been working with animals professionally my entire life. I grew up helping my mother train, show, etc. and then went on to work in several grooming salons. I started this company in February of 2020 when at the beginning of COVID-19, my mother was unable to ship her puppies since the flights were being shut down. She asked me if I could bring the puppies that needed to go to new homes in different states, if the families paid me the shipping fees instead. I happily agreed. While I was on the trip, everything just clicked for me. This was my calling. I was always meant to work with animals, somehow, but this was it for me. It's been an adventure, and I've loved every second. I have since brought a few great friends on board who are just so awesome with the furbabies, and have become an important part of POWPT!
Unlike other companies, we drive personal sized vehicles with lower numbers of pets. You will never see us pull up with a cargo van or trailer stacked with crates and filled to the brim with animals. We give a more comfortable and personable experience.
Budget-friendly prices. We strive to give the most reasonable prices, because it's not fair to pay $3,000 to ship your cat from Nevada to Iowa.
We ACTUALLY care about your furry friends. We are also rescue-friendly. Special discounts for registered 501c3's and willing to help with home checks and reporting at drop off to fosters/adopters.
We participate in a lot of rescue work, so each booking helps Heather fund operations to save and home animals in need.
Our team members are NEVER random people hired for profit. Only trusted friends that have a love for animals can find a place on the team!
We have a solid 5 stars on every platform. Reviews will say it all! Check us out!
Yes! We are fully insured with petcare professional insurance via PCI
Yes, we typically do ground pet transportation, but do offer flight nanny services by request.
Typically, for dogs we like to have a small bag of food, and a properly fitted collar/harness and leash. A comfort item is fine too, such as a favorite toy. Puppies under 12 weeks who have not finished all sets of vaccines will not be walked. We have a No Paws On Ground safety policy to avoid pickup of dangerous viruses like parvo. For supplies for cats and other pets, please ask.
We do use a video-call vet service to help us in case something goes wrong. They can advise us, refer us to a nearby in-person vet, or in some cases provide prescriptions.
Absolutely. We ship everything from turtles to birds, and in some cases, foxes and other wildlife.
We cover all of the USA, Mexico and Canada and some other countries(to and from US only) based on location and driver availability. (Only some of us cover international trips)
