Avoid Common DIY Pitfalls

  • You are already managing a stressful move with a long checklist of responsibilities.
  • Your vehicle is packed with luggage and family, leaving no space for large pet crates.
  • A single paperwork error at the USDA could delay your pet’s travel, requiring corrections from your veterinarian.
  • Navigating crowded airports and cargo facilities with pets can be overwhelming and confusing.
  • Airlines may deny pet travel due to extreme weather conditions, leaving you stranded while your pet’s journey is delayed.
  • Even if you and your family can fly as scheduled, your pet may not be able to—leading to unexpected delays, extra costs, and additional stress.

Choosing Pets in Transit means choosing peace of mind. We handle every detail so you and your pet can travel with confidence.

Your pets travel in a dedicated, temperature-controlled, and pressurized section of the aircraft—just like their human counterparts. They are securely placed below deck in a designated pet travel area, ensuring a safe and comfortable journey.

Studies show that most travel-related pet incidents occur in animals that have been sedated. Pets need full control of their natural bodily functions to manage any stress that may arise during travel. Medications can affect pets differently at altitude than on the ground, potentially leading to complications.

If a pet is sedated and unable to regulate their body through normal responses like panting, it can create serious risks. In most cases, animals adapt well to travel and simply rest throughout the journey, much like humans do.

If you’re concerned about your pet’s separation anxiety, ground transportation may be a better option, as it provides continuous human supervision and comfort. Ultimately, only you know your pet well enough to determine what travel method is best for them.

Many smaller regional airports use aircraft that are not equipped to accommodate pet travel. These planes often have weight restrictions and cargo doors too small to fit larger pet crates. As a result, Chicago remains the nearest major hub with the necessary aircraft and facilities to safely transport pets by air. In cases where air travel is not an option, ground transportation becomes the best alternative.

While no journey comes with absolute guarantees, we work with industry experts to minimize risks and ensure the highest probability of a safe and successful trip for your pet. Just as you trust a professional pilot to navigate a flight, you can trust Pets in Transit to handle every aspect of your pet’s journey with care and expertise. We are proud to say that we have never lost a pet in transit.
