We used Eagle Freight to help us move our French Bulldog from The Netherlands to Auckland, New Zealand. We started the process in April 2025 and he arrived safely with us in Auckland on the 24th of November 2025. We worked with Denise as our agent and throughout the entire process I felt completely confident she knew exactly what she was doing, as well as putting our dog’s best interest first. Every step of the way she was there supporting us, available by email and phone call, with complete compassion and empathy, even though I must’ve asked over 100 questions. She kept us informed and updated about any new regulations or changes to the process, always giving extremely clear guidance. It’s safe to say this would not have been possible without her help. We will be forever grateful that our boy arrived safely in his new home with the help of Denise and Eagle Freight! 10/10 recommend!

They were very helpful and proactive with all the logistics and documents required to move our dog. They also kept me updated after he was picked up for the flight on his status. Overall the move was smooth and easy thanks to Eagle Freight.

I received amazing service and advice from Eagle Freight (John Van Velzen) about the import of my pet. He was super helpful, friendly and always very quick in getting back to me via email or phone call. I would definitely contact him again if I need help or recommend his/ their service to others!

Denise and her team at Eagle Freight are honestly the most kindest and caring people. Moving your baby from one country to another is stressful, but when you need to move to a strict country like New Zealand this stress is amplified. Having someone like Denise helping us made this process 10000000 times less stressful. Any question we had was answered within minutes and if they weren’t sure they would have an answer to us within a day (considering time zones). We had many hour long conversations on the phone, making sure we understood everything needed. Denise would even take the time to speak to the vets and the labs doing all the tests to make sure things were done correctly. I cannot explain the level of care and detail Denise went into to ensure our baby made it across to New Zealand safely. I’ll forever be eternally grateful to Denise and the people at Eagle Freight for everything they have done for us, it’s very rare that a company shows this level of care and I’m honestly so thankful. If you are ever questioning which company to use for a move, don’t think twice to use Eagle Freight, they are honestly the best in the world.
