Lisa was absolutely helpful in the emigration process, she made us feel so comfortable in the relocation to New Zealand with our 3 dogs We could not rate her and the organisation highly enough we honestly would not have known what to do without her help. She guided us through the step by step process ensuring each document was correct and collected our dogs from our house and sent us email updates on the arrival of the airport connection flights as well as reaching quarantine with pictures included. It was simply the best decision we made using their services
We had an excellent experience with Transfur Animals relocating our dog from the UK to Australia. The entire process was handled with care and professionalism, and Lisa in particular was incredibly comforting and reliable throughout. She went above and beyond to ensure our dog’s journey would be as smooth and stress-free as possible. We were especially grateful that she organised a wonderful family to care for him in the UK before his departure — it truly meant the world to us. We couldn’t recommend Transfur Animals more highly.
I am so grateful to have found and worked with Transfur animals who facilitated the move of our little kitty from the UK to Johannesburg. I worked with Lisa throughout and she was amazing! She was responsive and always available with any questions I had. Their service simplified the process and made this otherwise stressful time much easier! They kept up informed throughout the process and even delivered the carrier crate in advance to allow my cat to become more familiar with it. Couldn’t recommend them enough!
I embarked on the pet travel journey with my 11 year old Jack Russell to bring her from Kenya to NZ. Lisa managed her trip from London to Auckland which is big task to deal with the paperwork and veterinary requirements. It’s a complicated and extended process and you have to get it spot on otherwise you have problems. Lisa was great throughout the 3 month long process, handling the endless sometimes tedious administrative hurdles. I would 100% recommend Lisa at Transfur, my beloved pet Poppy arrived in Auckland absolutely fine and if I had to move her again I’d use Transfur again.
Moving is daunting enough — add a much-loved family pet into the mix and the stress levels jump even higher. That’s exactly where we were when we first spoke to Transfur Animals. From the start, Lisa made everything feel lighter. She was patient, thorough, and never pushed for a hard sell. After speaking with a few companies, her calm, straightforward approach stood out. The three months leading up to our move were full of forms, deadlines and a surprising number of vet visits. It could have become overwhelming, but Lisa kept everything organised and always reassured us when it felt like a lot. The custom-built crate arrived and was spot-on, which gave us one less thing to worry about. When moving day came, Bo’s collection ran like clockwork. Lisa set up a WhatsApp group with us and the Cape Town representative so we could follow every step in real time. Bo landed safely, and when we met the local rep she was already out enjoying a walk — relaxed, happy, and clearly in good hands. And now? As the photo shows, she’s settling into her new life beautifully. Sandy nose, bright eyes, and loving her beach walks. It’s exactly the outcome we’d hoped for. We extend our sincere thanks to Lisa and the entire Transfur team. We’d recommend them without hesitation.
