Yes. All international pet travel from Spain requires a clinical examination done by a veterinarian and documentation issued or endorsed by an officially authorized veterinarian in Spain, including export health certificates and vaccination verification.
Preparation time depends on the destination:
At minimum: a microchip, rabies vaccination, and EU pet passport (for dogs, cats, and ferrets). Depending on the destination, additional health tests, parasite treatments, or import permits may be needed. I prepare and review everything so your pet's paperwork is complete and correct.
In most cases, no—especially for countries like the UK, EU members, and the US. However, some destinations (like Australia, Japan, or certain Asian countries) may require quarantine or extended waiting periods. I help you choose destinations and timelines that avoid or minimize quarantine when possible.
Yes. I specialize in preparing pets for international travel from Spain to a wide range of destinations, including the United States, United Kingdom, all EU countries, and several Asian nations. Each country has unique requirements, and I stay current with regulations to ensure a smooth process for every trip.
Yes. When properly planned, pet air travel is safe and widely practiced worldwide. Airlines follow strict animal welfare regulations. Your pet's safety and comfort are our top priorities.
Most pets handle air travel very well, especially when properly prepared. We provide guidance on crate familiarization and pre-travel routines to help reduce anxiety and make the experience as calm as possible.
We generally recommend feeding your pet a light meal around 4–6 hours before departure. This helps prevent nausea or discomfort during travel.
Yes, hydration is very important. Your pet should have access to water before check-in. Travel crates are equipped with water bowls that can be refilled without opening the crate.
Sedation is generally not recommended, as it can interfere with breathing and balance at altitude. Most airlines prohibit sedated animals. If your pet has special needs, we can advise on how to proceed for their welfare during the journey.
Crate training, maintaining normal routines, and staying calm yourself all help your pet feel secure.
We take special requirements seriously. Let us know about any medical conditions or dietary instructions, and we'll incorporate them into your pet's travel plan where permitted.
