Do pets travel in the car with their owner?

Yes. This is a private chauffeur service where you and your pet travel together in the same vehicle for the entire journey, including the Eurotunnel Le Shuttle crossing. Your pet is never separated from you and never travels in a cargo hold.

How much does pet transport from London to Paris cost?

Every journey is priced by mileage with a fixed quote before you book. Send a quick enquiry with your pickup point, destination and pets, and we reply with your exact fixed fare as soon as possible.

Can I travel from London to Paris with my pet as well?

Yes. The service runs daily in both directions between Paris and London, as well as from Brussels and Amsterdam to London.

Are dogs allowed on the Eurostar?

No - Eurostar passenger trains do not accept pets at all. That is exactly why we drive: your dog or cat travels with you in our vehicle through Eurotunnel Le Shuttle, staying beside you the whole way, door to door.

What documents does my pet need to travel between France and the UK?

Your pet needs a microchip, a valid rabies vaccination, and an Animal Health Certificate or EU pet passport. Dogs also need a tapeworm treatment administered by a vet 24 to 120 hours before arriving in the UK.
