Health & Travel Certificates

Traveling With Your Pet?

Is this your first time obtaining a travel or health certificate for your pet? Don’t worry. Pet Wellness Group has years of experience with these documents and can help you with the process.

Because your health and travel certificates will depend on your mode of travel, as well as your destination, be sure to do some research prior to coming in.

In addition, we recommend that you call the airline and/or the consulate of the nation you are headed to. If you have further questions, give us a call and we will be happy to help.

After you have done your research give us a call for an appointment and we will help you through the rest of the process. Most countries have specific time requirements of when your pet needs to be examined, vaccinated and/or tested before they can travel with you. Try to schedule this appointment well in advance if at all possible, to help avoid any issues.

We recommend that you make a few other preparations when traveling with your pet. To keep him safe, you might consider microchipping your pet. Or at the very least, updating his collar and tags. You should also plan on traveling with a few comfort items for your pet - like a favorite blanket or chew toy. Get in touch with our office if you have any questions about preparing your pet for travel.
