How to Move with Pets Long-Distance

All My Sons Moving & Storage in Texas

Moving in general is a stressful time, but when you move with pets, there’s a whole different level of stress and concern for your pets. Whether the move is local or long-distance, our Houston movers are here to help you realize it is safe to move with pets and stay stress-free so you and your fur babies can feel calm about your move.

Make Sure Your Pet is Healthy

The first thing you should do if you are moving long-distance with your pet is make sure you visit the vet’s office one last time to see if your pet is at his or her optimal health. Your pet’s health is a vital factor to think about when moving, especially across state lines since each state has different laws and regulations regarding vaccinations and documents. While visiting the vet’s office, tell your vet about the plans to move long-distance and request a copy of all your pet’s medical records, including the vaccines they have received.

Keep Your Pets Calm

New surroundings and the whole commotion of moving your possessions can trigger a lot of unwanted stress for your pet, even more so when you are moving with multiple pets. Keeping them calm and safely away from the commotion is the best course of action when you move with pets. Try to keep them with a friend for a day or in their kennel with their favorite toy.

Your pet will also be nervous in this new environment and may feel the need to run or take off because of the anxiety they might feel. Always keep the kennel closed and secured when transporting them into the new house. Remember that this is a new neighborhood and you and your pets don’t know the area. Have the leash ready to attach to their collars, for animals who wear them, and take them for a quick walk so they start to get to know your block.
