AFRAID TO TRAVEL WITH PETS?

Tourism    Travel    Hotels    Airlines    Restaurants    Agents    Forums    Things to Do



It’s true, if you plan to travel with pets you have your work cut out for you. However, I did some research to try to help things go more smoothly for you.

There are many companies that transport animals and I’ve also listed some that sell natural remedies to soothe your pet’s anxiety while traveling as well as information on documentation and quarantines.

So if you are moving to Bolivia, bringing your animals doesn’t have to be such a challenge. Contact some of the resources below and make relocating to beautiful Bolivia a pleasant experience for everyone, even your pets.



IF YOU'VE ALREADY HAD EXPERIENCE TRAVELING WITH PETS please do share your best advice for pet travel with other BoliviaBella readers. You can do so in under 3 minutes and your contribution will automatically create your own page on this site. Be a precious pet's hero today!

IF YOU DO NOT HAVE EXPERIENCE TRAVELING WITH PETS scroll to the bottom of the page, under the form, where you'll find the advice for traveling with animals other pet owners have kindly shared (and maybe a few cute pet pictures too).

Pets often get motion sickness, just like we humans do. They also don’t like confined spaces. Try this all natural herbal remedy that helps calm pet travel anxiety and motion sickness.

Read these very general tips for travel with your dog and travel with your cat and this specific information on airline travel with your dog and airline travel with your cat.

DOCUMENTS FOR PETS ENTERING BOLIVIA

AUGUST 2009 UPDATE TO THIS INFORMATION


Thanks to Jake from Chicago who is going through the process of importing a dog into Bolivia we now have important updated information for you on the documentation you will need and how to go about getting it (if you are importing an animal from the US into Bolivia). Click on the link above to read it.

We're grateful Jake took the time to write us. Information and procedures change frequently in Bolivia (it can be quite maddening, really) and we just love that our site visitors are helping make BoliviaBella the Numero Uno source for first-hand information on Bolivia. THANK YOU!!

PET SHIPPING AND RELOCATION

If you’re trying to find out about shipping your pet the following companies offer pet relocation and animal transport services. (Try one that is a member of IPATA Independent Pet and Animal Transportation Association International).

http://www.animailers.com
http://www.animaltransportation.com
http://www.petmovers.com
http://www.petrelocation.com/service.html
http://www.happytailstravel.com/index.php
http://www.petmove.com
http://www.animalsaway.com
http://www.petride.com/worldwide.htm

(By the way, there are dozens and dozens of companies that provide this service). New stuff: read more on pet relocation here!

IATA (International Air Transport Association) is also extremely informative and VERY DETAILED - well worth your time, and of course it has the most up-to-date information on travel regulations, with links to Canadian and European Union laws.
