The Williams family was attracted to Napier because of its Art Deco appeal and temperate climate, but Buddy the Beagle had more pressing questions: Would he cope with a flight from out of town? And would there be any local rules about dogs in the city? That fear became excitement for HappyLocate.
At HappyLocate, we offer domestic pet relocation services in Napier that begin with IATA-compliant air travel arrangements and culminate with your pet arriving safe and sound. We take care of all the details of arranging transport, including liaising with approved air transporters, a necessary step for pet transport on major airlines in New Zealand, to ensure a seamless process for you and your pet.
All documentation is prepared to ensure your pet meets Animal Welfare Act 1999 requirements and is current on vaccinations. This includes mandatory microchipping and registration with the Napier City Council for dogs, as well as a comprehensive guidance to dog control bylaws in Napier that details popular on-leash and off-leash areas where Buddy can get to know his new area.
If your move requires travel over the Cook Strait, we secure kennel space on the ferry to ensure smooth sailing or cruising for your pet. From dog relocation services to cat relocation services, HappyLocate partners with you every step of the way to ensure your pet has a safe and stress-free journey!
Contact us to get your pet's Napier adventure off to a good start!
