Kari and her crew at island pet movers are amazing. We had 2 Boxers we moved from Denver Colorado to Lihue Hawaii about 6 months ago. Due to an illness on Chata our female she only made it as far as Honolulu and on to Doggie Heaven. We knew we were taking a chance on her making it. The lose was hard to take but I truly know island pet movers did all they could. Rocky on the other hand made it with flying colors. Due to some changes on the job we just shipped Rocky back to Denver, using Island pet movers and all went great again. When we first started the paperwork on getting the dogs to Hawaii it was a real pain, then I found an ad on Island Pet movers and gave them a call. Oh my gosh they took over with all the paperwork and made it all so easy for us to get Chats and Rock over to Lihue. I would recommend Kari and her crew highly. They are amazing to work with and very caring and compassionate especially with our loss on Chats. Great job!!

Where should we even begin? My other half and I are currently moving permanently from Hilo to San Diego California. Moving our belonging was one task but little did we know, finding a way to take our Rusty Boy, a 5 year old Blue Nose Pit bull, was starting to look slim. Our dog has the most difficult time being in a crate and having strangers carry him around was impossible. I initially booked my dog to fly along with me to San Diego through Hawaiian Cargo, however, they denied him on the spot due to his behavior. At that moment, David and I knew this would not be easy. Luckily, my other half was staying in Hilo for a couple weeks longer to finish the loose ends of our move from Hilo, so he was able to care for Rusty in the meantime. David tried a second time the week after, and they denied Rusty again. At this point, we were lost and starting to lose hope. We were afraid that we would have to leave our Rusty Boy, that we have had for 5 years in our lives, behind in a shelter. Our personal trainer, Ted Young, then suggested Island Pet Movers to us. He said they arranged all his clients’ pets through them and that we should try and call Kari and her team. So we did. And BOY were we glad. At this point, we had only less than 2 weeks to fly our dog before David leaves Hilo permanently. The moment we called Island Pet Movers, they took away all the worry and stress from our shoulders. Kari was out of the island at this time, but even with her absence, she was very much active with the arrangements of flying Rusty home along with her wonderful team. They kept constant communication and answered any of our emails instantly. They booked with a totally different cargo company, knowing our troubles with the previous one we had. Rusty was scheduled to have a 6 hour layover in Honolulu. Pet Island Movers graciously picked Rusty up, walked him, gave him water, and cared for him in their office within AC. WOW! I was so relieved when they sent me an email about their care and even sent some happy pictures of our boy! Rusty is now laying beside me in San Diego as I write this review and that wouldn’t have happened without Island Pet Movers. We are sooooo grateful for all their help. Thank you Island Pet Movers! Mahalo,

My daughter Abbie and family were at the end of their tether, having spent a frustrating week trying to get the paperwork sorted in order to fly Lucy from Hawaii to the U.K. Although she had all the right paperwork, she wasn’t able to speak the “Airline language”, and was led to believe they did not have all the forms required and it looked very much like they were going to have to leave Lucy behind. This would have been heartbreaking for them all. Lucy had been a rescue dog to begin with and to have to put her back into the pound, not knowing where she would end up, would have been unthinkable. The family had moved out of their home and were in a hotel, having to phone the Airline via mobile phones, and it seemed as if every obstacle was being put in their way. The dog was booked in, then she wasn’t. Luckily someone suggested they contact you and at the eleventh hour you took up the baton and managed to unravel the whole mess, seemingly effortlessly. If only they had come to you at the beginning of this saga. Attaching picture of Lucy out with all the family on a countryside walk. She’s experienced snow for the first time in her little life. She is still scatty and jumpy as ever, a little weight loss being the only visible effect of the stress of the long journey and quarantine. She’s back to her normal self now, she was so pleased to see Keith when he collected her from the kennels. Thank you again and long may your business prosper, assisting people through what is probably one of the most difficult times they have to go through.

Erin and I used island pet movers back in June of this year to get our dog Bella from Denver to Kauai. We were so relieved that the burden of all the technical paperwork, finding a crate and managing flights was taken off of our shoulders. Every time we had a question island pet movers responded right away. I recommend hiring island pet movers and saving yourself the headache. Thank you!
