Relocating to a new country is an exciting chapter in life—but when your furry family member is joining the move, it adds a whole new layer of planning. Whether you’re moving from Singapore to Australia, New Zealand, the UK, or welcoming a new pet into Singapore, this guide will help ensure a smooth and stress-free experience for both you and your pet.

Why Pet Relocation Needs a Pro

Relocating a pet isn’t as simple as booking a flight. Each country has its own strict import requirements—ranging from rabies vaccinations and microchip checks to quarantine regulations and blood titre testing. Missing even one detail could result in delayed travel, extended quarantine, or rejected entry.

That’s where AT Pet Services steps in.

As an AVS-recognized relocation partner based in Singapore, we handle everything from flight bookings to crate training support—so you can focus on your move while we ensure your pet’s journey is smooth and safe.
