National Travel

• We offer pick up and delivery services to and from our facility in Takanini, Auckland to and from Auckland Airport.
• We carry a wide variety of airline-approved crate for both domestic and international travel. 

If you need to board your cat(s)/dog(s) before the flight date, we can pick up your cat(s)/dog(s) within the Auckland region and board until you are ready for your cat(s)/dog(s) to join you. We will then take them to the airport and have them flown to the airport nearest you.

If your cat(s)/dog(s) will be staying in our facility, the following vaccinations will need to be up to date (valid within one year), and we will need the vaccination card.

International Travel

If you are relocating to another country and you would like to have your cat(s)/dog(s) join you, we can arrange their travel from our facility in Takanini, Auckland to the international airport closest to your new home. If your cat(s)/dog(s) need to fly into Auckland from within N.Z., we can pick them up at the airport, or if you live within the Auckland region we can drive to pick them up, and bring them to our facility to prepare them for their international flight.
We will arrange all veterinary health checks, and MAF export certificates fro entry into the country your cat(s)/dog(s) are going to.
Some countries require an implanted microchip and specific proof of certain vaccinations and blood tests - we can advise you what is needed for the country you are going to.
You may need to obtain an import permit for the country you are travelling to - sorry , we cannot do this for you. You will need to contact the appropriate government department in the country you are going to. If you need help please contact NZ MAF Export Helpline (04) 819 0513 or (04) 819 0514 and ask for their guidance.
Your cat(s)/dog(s) will need an airline approved travel crate. We can provide travel crates if needed.
If your cat(s)/dogs(s) will be boarding with us before going onwards to their new home, we will need their yearly vaccination card, because this must travel with them.

The vaccinations we require are:

In order for us to give you a quote for your cat(s)/dog(s) going overseas, you will need to provide us with the appropriate dimensions of your cat(s)/dog(s) (shown in the diagram below).

A = Length of animal from nose to base of tail.

C = width across shoulders. C x 2 = width of container.

D = height of animal in natural standing position from top of the head or the ear tip, whichever is higher = height of the container (top flat or arched)

A = CM / INCH D = CM / INCH C = CM / INCH

Cost for transport is based on destination and on the volume metric weight of your cat(s)/dog(s) travel cage.

Transit

Qualified Pet Services offers a transit service for quarantine cats and dogs flying long distances and requiring a 'rest stop' in Auckland.

What needs to be done first:
The owner must apply for an import permit, for the country the cat(s)/dog(s) will be going to.
The pet transporter or agent needs to contact us and ask if we have room to accommodate - tell us how many -cat(s)/dog(s) for a transit stop, and give us the date(s) need. When the pet transporter or agent receives the 'OK' from us, they then need to contact MAF in Wellington and request an application form for a transit permit. Written proof that we can transit your cat(s)/dog(s) on the date(s) required will need to be given to MAF. MAF will then send a transit application form to the pet transporter or agent. Fill out the application form, and send it back to MAF along with a copy of the import permit for the country the cat(s)/dog(s) will be going to. MAF will send the pet transporter or agent the transit permit. A copy of the transit permit then needs to be sent to us, so we can present it to MAF at the airport when the cats(s)/dog(s) arrive.
We will bring the cat(s)/dog(s) to our facility. Whilst here the cats(s)/dog(s) will be provided with food, water and an opportunity to go to the toilet. A bed will be set up ready for the cat(s)/dog(s) to have a rest, before going on to their final destination.
We offer all the comforts that our regular quarantine cats and dogs receive. We will change the newspaper and bedding (if wet), so the crate will be dry and comfortable. If the crate requires resealing by MAF, this will be done, and the cat(s)/dog(s) will be delivered back to the airport ready to board the plane and continue their journey to their final destination.
