The Smith family were looking forward to swapping city life for a more laid-back lifestyle in the fruit bowl, Hastings, New Zealand. Their two Golden Retrievers, Molly and Duke, were also excited about the move but the family was worried that transporting two large dogs might be too complicated; HappyLocate, speacialist in domestic pet relocation services in Hastings took care of all the arrangements, including temperature-controlled cargo space on domestic flights and door-to-door pet taxi Hastings service for the final leg of their journey.
Our team ensured every detail was covered, including multiple check-ins and the necessary health paperwork.
