Pet Transport and Pet Boarding Specialists
What many of our clients say helped them breathe easier was understanding how pets actually travel. The process is far more structured, thoughtful, and carefully monitored than most people realise.
Pets don’t fly in the dark, noisy chaos we sometimes imagine. They travel in a temperature-controlled, pressurised section of the aircraft — the same conditions as the cabin. They’re handled by trained staff who work with animals every day, and every step is logged, checked, and double-checked.
And then there’s the travel container itself — something that surprises a lot of our owners – in the best possible way 😆
Keringa-Petwings custom-makes world-leading, wooden containers to fit each individual pet. They’re solid, secure, and naturally quieter than plastic crates, which helps many animals settle more easily.
Inside, everything is designed with comfort and safety in mind:
• Stainless steel water and food bowls that are securely fastened and topped up during travel.
• Absorbent bedding to keep pets dry and comfortable.
• And yes — you can include a favourite toy or a T-shirt with your scent, something familiar that helps them feel grounded and safe.
Many owners also find comfort in tracking their pet’s journey in real time. Apps like airline cargo trackers and flight-tracking tools let you follow the aircraft your pet is on, giving you a sense of connection and reassurance while you travel or wait on the other side.
Keringa-Petwings is a Certified IPATA Pet Shipper and accredited to transport snub-nose (brachycephalic) breeds.
Over the many, many years that Keringa-Petwings has been transporting dogs, cats and other pets around the world, our clients have told us how much calmer they felt with our guidance, and we can do the same for you:
