Your pet, riding with a pet-owning country-traveler!

The details, and nothing but the details

We are cheaper because our drivers are not running a business; they will already be traveling, and your pet is welcome company. The trip may take a bit longer, and will cost a bunch less. If you are relaxed with your schedule, this may be a good option for you.

Remember to send food with your pet, and be sure to tip!

What sets us apart

Our drivers are not trying to make a living from this. They live in their rigs and roam by choice, not managing a dozen stops or racing a schedule. Their attention can stay more on your pet, and less on a route quota.

Driver earnings through our platform are capped at $5,000 per year. That cap is deliberate. It keeps this a favor with a fee, rather than a job.

• Scheduling is easy. A generous pickup window means far less back-and-forth to lock in a trip.
• Your driver owns pets too. Every driver travels with a pet of their own, so yours is in familiar hands.
• A real phone number. If something urgent comes up mid-trip, you can reach a person, not a chatbot.

Required paperwork

You’ll get the health certificate (CVI) from your veterinarian before the pickup window starts. Remember this is not a rabies vaccine certificate. This is a health inspection certifying good health. This is legally required in nearly every state. Reptiles and animals of the order Rodentia are the only exceptions.

Who this suits best

• Low-need pets. Animals that travel easily and require no specialized handling en route.
• Hard-to-reach destinations. Low-population areas that commercial transporters skip or surcharge, the kind of places our drivers may be wanting to roam anyway.
• Flexible schedules. A 10-day minimum pickup window brings much-needed flexibility to the drivers.
• Light communication. This is not a service with hourly tracking updates.
• Smaller budgets. The affordable option, not the fastest one. Quality is a given.
