Why Pet Taxi service?

Pet owners cannot always adjust their schedule or be available when their pet needs to attend an appointment at the veterinarian,  groomer, etc. Sometimes the onwer is ill or injured and unable to transport their pet to a scheduled appointment. When these situations occur, you have an option of using us to transport your pet.

Your pet will travel in an air-conditioned vehicle that is well maintained and fully insured. We can provide a traveling container or crate, if needed. We can stay with your pet until ready to return or come back for them at a later time. Waiting time is not included in the base price.
