About us

A friend was moving to the south of France and had booked her collie onto a van with eleven other animals. Two days before, the company called: the run was full, they would take him the following month instead. She rang us in tears from a house with no furniture in it.

So we drove him. One dog, one car, one long day through the tunnel and down through Burgundy, with the windows cracked at every service station and a photograph sent each time he had a drink. He slept on her sofa that night, in the right country, with the right person.

What we took from that

We could have bought a bigger vehicle and filled it. Plenty of firms do, and it is how the price comes down. But the thing that made that journey work was that nothing about it was shared: not the space, not the schedule, not the driver’s attention.

So that is the whole company. One household’s animals at a time, in a car rather than a van, on the date you choose. If you would rather not be apart from them, there is a seat for you and we will drive while you look after them. Nobody else’s dog barking in the next crate. Nobody else’s delay becoming yours.

How we work

• The person who collects your pet is the person who delivers them. No depots, no hand-overs to a stranger at a car park in Kent
• We stop every three to four hours, and you get a photograph each time, so the day is never silent
• We tell you what the paperwork needs months before anyone asks for it, because a missing tapeworm treatment is the single most common reason a journey stops at a border
• If we cannot do a journey properly, we say so and point you somewhere that can

The unglamorous part

Most of this job is not the driving. It is the phone call with the vet in a different time zone, the form that has to be stamped within a five-day window, the hour spent finding a grass verge at midnight because a nervous spaniel will not use a service station. We are quite good at that part, and we think it is what you are actually paying for.
