10-Step Safe Transport Protocol

Every pet delivery follows this protocol — no exceptions, no shortcuts.

🗺️

Step 01

Booking Confirmed & Route Planned

After payment confirmation, our logistics team plans the optimal route for your city pair: road (AC cab), train (AC compartment), or air — based on distance, species sensitivity, travel time, and weather. Pets never travel longer than 12 hours without a rest break. Buyers receive the planned route and ETA upfront.

🏥

Step 02

Pre-Transport Health Clearance

24–48 hours before departure, a licensed veterinarian conducts a final health check to confirm: the pet is fit to travel, not stressed or in heat, body temperature and hydration are normal, and no new health concerns have emerged since the main health certificate was issued. A fresh Fit-to-Travel certificate is issued and uploaded to the buyer's account.

📦

Step 03

Species-Specific Travel Crate Prepared

Each pet is assigned a species-appropriate travel crate: IATA-approved airline crates for air transport, ventilated mesh crates for road, and custom compartmentalised crates for birds or small animals. The crate is cleaned, lined with comfort bedding, fitted with a water dispenser and food tray, and clearly labelled with pet name, breed, destination, and emergency contact.

Step 04

Live Video Call at Collection Point

When our delivery escort arrives to collect the pet, a live video call is placed with the buyer. The buyer watches the pet being gently placed into the travel crate, the crate being secured and locked, and the exact moment of departure. No hidden substitutions at any stage of the journey.

Step 05

Dedicated Human Escort — Entire Journey

A trained, pet-handling-certified escort travels with your pet from door to door — no handoffs, no third-party couriers, no cargo holds without supervision. The escort is trained in pet first aid, stress management, species-specific feeding, and emergency protocols. Your pet has a dedicated human companion at all times.

Your pet's escort is the same person from departure to handover

📍

Step 06

Live GPS Tracking via WhatsApp

From the moment of departure, the buyer receives a live GPS tracking link via WhatsApp. The pet's real-time location is visible on their phone throughout the entire journey. The escort also sends periodic text status updates — current speed, estimated arrival, and pet condition.

LIVE GPS — Real-Time Location on Your Phone

📡

Step 07

Video Call Check-Ins During Transit

The escort makes live video call check-ins throughout the journey, showing the buyer their pet eating, drinking water, and resting comfortably in the crate. For journeys over 4 hours, at least two video check-in calls are made. Buyers can request additional check-ins at any time.

VIDEO UPDATES — 2+ Live Calls During Travel

☕

Step 08

Rest Stops for Long-Distance Travel

For journeys exceeding 6 hours, the escort stops at pre-approved pet-friendly rest points. Dogs are given water, food, and a brief supervised exercise break. Birds and cats receive water and a visual welfare check. Stress indicators — panting, feather puffing, vocalization — are monitored and logged throughout.

🔍

Step 09

Arrival Inspection at Destination

On arrival in the buyer's city, the escort conducts a visual health check: hydration, body temperature, responsiveness, coat/feather condition. Any minor concerns (mild dehydration, stress) are addressed before proceeding to the buyer's address. A post-transit health note is prepared and shared with the buyer.

🏠

Step 10

Doorstep Handover with Care Briefing

The escort arrives at the buyer's home and personally hands over the pet with a full care briefing: feeding schedule, hydration tips for the first 24 hours, vaccination due dates, nearest recommended vet, and breed-specific acclimatisation guidance. Final payment (75%) is collected only after the buyer inspects and approves the pet in person.

Final payment only after you see and approve your pet
