Animal & Pet Shipping

Animal shipping has been growing steadily with the advance of medicine and genetic testing and genetic engineering. The animals must be treated with virtually sterile procedures. This is a niche which requires protocols for disinfecting vehicles after any transport of animals, and before the transport of a new shipment of animals. Airport courier has transported to various labs and research facilities:

• Pigs
• Mice
• Ferrets
• Dogs
• Cats
• Birds
• Rats

Our vehicles are climate controlled, non smoking, that have non-absorbent floors with tie downs to hold the containers with animals in place.

Pet shipping is also a specialty of Airport Courier Service. We deliver fish, reptiles, birds, dogs, cats, or any animal which will fit in a minivan or cargo van. Many national companies such as Pet Smart or Petco receive new pets weekly and we have provided these services. Breeders or farms who supply stock for breeding or to the individual pet consumer rely on commercial airlines to expedite the shipments, reducing stress or loss. We are located less than a mile from Logan International Airport and are familiar with the airlines and their procedures. We welcome the chance to transport your future pets. As listed above we will see that the pets are in a climate controlled, non smoking environment. We make sure the pets are alert, and hydrated, and in general terms have made the journey in good health. We will call new owners once the pet is retrieved to advice of our ETA, to the new home. If you have needs in the greater Boston area for either shipping your pet or adding a new member of the family, please call Airport Courier Service. We treat your pets like you would want them treated. A secure and thoughtful service for your most valued new companion.
