Rates
TLC~Pet~Transport Rates for group Pet Transports (several pets, different families, same van) are figured by carrier dimensions (see cost chart below) plus a gas surcharge of .20 cents per mile of your total transport miles door to door This is the current gas surcharge rate as of May 1st, 2013. As gas prices change, so will the percentage rate. Adjustments are made the first of every month. There is also a .029% credit card processing fee. Personal checks are accepted with no credit card fee.
The cost for tolls will also be applied to private Pet Transports located in the east and northeast.
We also offer a 10% multi Pet Transport discount for familes with 3 or more pets. And a 10% active military discount with ID.
Rescue organizations will receive a substantial discount.
And we thank you for adopting a homeless dog or cat.
Private family transports are figured by the round trip mile.
Please call the office for a quote. Toll Free 877-495-PETS.
Below you will find our cost chart that we use to figure a group transport rate.
The crate dimensions are listed along with the price.
To figure up a quote, add the cost for crate space plus .20 cents a mile from zip code to zip code together. Tax and tolls are included in the price.
Please measure your dogs from their paws to the top of their head, standing, making sure to allow them enough room to stand and turn around easily.** The height is the most important. Get that right and the length and width will allow for more than ample enough room for your dog.
Cats can ride in the same crate together at only $100 for each additional cat. Of course, we will use a larger size carrier.
These crates have zippers. Which makes it next to impossible for a cat to dart out of it's crate.
When traveling cross country, we prefer that you order at least one size larger carrier, as your pets' comfort is our major concern.
We supply all crates, bedding, bowls, litter box and litter, collars, leashes and bottled water. All you need to furnish is your pet's food and an Interstate Health Certificate, obtained from your vet before travel, and up to date vaccination records. Titer tests are accepted.

Canine Campers are soft sided crates made of sturdy canvas. They have mesh windows all around that have flaps that roll up or can be left down for your pets' comfort. They also have a fleece bottom. They are very cozy. They cannot be stacked on top of each other. These crates are luxurious and allow for major air flow because of their 'floor to ceiling" windows.
We offer these crates to you because they are so much more comfortable for your pet's transport. But please be aware that if your animal rips or tears their crate during their Pet Transport, you will be responsible and reimbursement will be needed.
We also offer the vari kennel hard crates and wire crates for our more rambunctious passengers. So if you think your pet would be more suitable to travel in these type carriers, please let us know.
** In accordance with the rules and regulations of the USDA, and the humane policies outlined by the Independent Pet & Animal Transport Association (IPATA), all animals must have ample room to stand and turn around easily in their carriers.
