What our customers are saying

Paws en route is amazing! The service is such a peace of mind ! We moved our German Shepherd Freya from Canada to Scotland, UK and we honestly couldn’t have done it easier. Mona supported and helped us throughout this long and complicated process. Fast replies, clear instructions and personalized support! We will definitely use the service again and recommend it for everyone! Thank you so much again Mona!

Relocating your pet can cause a lot of stress and anxiety. It is not an easy process. However, Alexandra Tegovski helped me deal with the anxiety and stress by always answering my inquiries in detail. She made sure my labrador “Gretchen” would travel from Winnipeg, Canada to San Jose, Costa Rica in a safe and prompt way. She is always there for the customer providing clear instructions and making sure both owner and pet can trust the agency. I would use them again if necessary. Thank you Alexandra and Team!

We transported our boy Theo from Toronto to Mumbai! He didn’t have any discomfort and the team did the great job in guiding us and making arrangements! The Paws en route team coordinated excellently with us in a totally different time zone and with our friend! After Theo was picked up for flight from our friend’s place , we were informed that Theo was in the safest hands! The moment he landed in India exactly 10 days after we moved to India, though Theo was tired of the long journey he was healthy and we felt good after months! Now it’s almost 35 days since Theo is in India, he is sound and healthy. Thank you team❤️
