Are you looking for a pet travel company that can fly your dog from the UK to Australia safely and comfortably? Let us handle it!

Fetchapet are experts at flying dogs to Australia. With 30 years’ experience in international pet exports, we will fly your dog in safe and comfortable IATA compliant pet travel crates.

We offer a bespoke dog export service for customers seeking to fly their dog from the UK to Australia.

Our dog export specialists can arrange for collection of your dog(s) from your home anywhere in England, Scotland or Wales. Alternatively, you may deliver to our premises, or one of our representatives can meet you at Heathrow airport.

We can attend to all pre-export documentation on your behalf, including the submission of the import permit application and making the quarantine

Fetchapet arrange the airline booking to correspond with pet quarantine reservations in Australia. The only Australian Government Quarantine establishment is located in Melbourne.

For animals intended for other Australian destinations, we have a network of other IPATA agents that can help with the onwards journey after quarantine.

How It Works

At Fetchapet, we specialise in arranging airline bookings for dogs traveling to Australia, including coordinating with quarantine reservations in Melbourne, the only government-approved quarantine facility in the country. If your dog is destined for another location in Australia, we can connect you with one of our trusted IPATA agents to assist with the continuation of their journey after quarantine.

Our team of veterinary surgeons is equipped to handle all necessary pre-shipment work, such as blood tests, DEFRA export health certificates, and parasite treatments. We are also happy to work with your own veterinarian to ensure that all requirements for dogs entering Australia are met. Please note that it typically takes a minimum of 7 months to prepare dogs for entry into Australia.

For long or short periods, we offer pre-shipment boarding at one of our partner kennels, where we have full access to the dogs and can ensure that all required tests and treatments are administered. Our air travel kennels, which are built in-house to IATA standards, are custom-made to fit your dog’s specific measurements for maximum comfort and safety during their journey.

If you would like to visit us and meet the Fetchapet team who will be caring for your dog during their trip from the UK to Australia, you’re more than welcome to come down. We have beautiful dog walks right on our doorstep and would be happy to take you on a peaceful country walk to discuss your needs and demonstrate how our personalised dog export services stand out from the rest.
