More Than Transport: Why Trust Matters in Pet Travel
This is a subtitle for your new post

When you hand over your dog or cat for a journey — whether it’s across the UK or across Europe — you’re not just booking transport. You’re trusting someone with a member of your family.
At DL Pet Transport, we understand that responsibility deeply. That’s because we’re not a faceless logistics company — we’re a family-run business built around care, experience, and doing things properly.
Built on Experience, Not Promises
With decades of professional driving behind us and years specialising in pet transport, we know that moving animals safely isn’t just about miles on a map. It’s about planning, patience, and knowing how to adapt when animals — or borders — don’t behave as expected.
Every journey is planned with:
- DEFRA/DAERA-licensed, fully approved vehicles
- Live GPS tracking for peace of mind
- Climate-controlled, custom-built cages
- Regular comfort breaks, feeding, and welfare checks
No rushing. No shortcuts. No compromises.
UK & European Routes You Can Rely On
We operate regular fixed routes across:
- Scotland, England & Wales
- France, Spain & Portugal
- Italy and mainland Europe
These scheduled routes help keep costs fair while maintaining the highest standards of care. For pets that need something different, we also offer bespoke and emergency transport, tailored around the animal’s needs — not the clock.
Rescue-Friendly, Welfare-Focused
Rescue animals hold a special place in our hearts. We work closely with trusted rescues across the UK and Europe, ensuring every movement is legal, compliant, and focused on welfare first.
We’re meticulous with paperwork — TRACES, health certificates, customs requirements — because mistakes don’t just cause delays, they cause stress for animals. That’s something we refuse to accept.
Small Enough to Care, Big Enough to Cope
We’ve grown carefully, adding vehicles and routes only when we know standards won’t slip. That balance matters. It means:
- You speak to real people, not call centres
- We know every pet onboard, not just the numbers
- Care stays personal, even on long international journeys
Trust Is Earned, One Journey at a Time
Most of our work comes from repeat customers and word of mouth. That’s not by accident — it’s because we treat every animal as if they were our own.
If you’re looking for pet transport that values safety, transparency, and genuine care, you’re in the right place.
