by Ali Oaks | October 31, 2024

Planning pet travel can be complicated, and it’s crucial to get every step right for a smooth journey. That’s why GlobalVetLink created the Pet Travel Concierge Service—to streamline the process and offer a trusted guide through each stage of preparing your clients for travel.

With our Pet Travel Concierge Service, the GlobalVetLink team will handle:

  • Pet & Travel Details Collection
  • International Health Certificate Document Preparation
  • Certificate Preparation in VEHCS for Endorsement Submission
  • USDA Endorsement Tracking

How the Pet Travel Concierge Service Works

With Pet Travel Concierge Service, veterinarians gain access to one-on-one support to navigate the often complex requirements for pet travel. From understanding health certificates to ensuring compliance with destination regulations, the team provides guidance tailored to your needs, ensuring no detail is overlooked. Here’s a look at how our service works:

  1. Complete and submit our online Concierge Service Booking Form to tell us about your pet owner’s upcoming international travel plans.
  2. The Pet Travel Consultant team will collect and review any records, create and provide appointment instructions, and prepare any additional paperwork.
  3. You’ll receive the prefilled international health certificate(s) and prefilled VEHCS certificate(s) before your patient’s appointment(s) in preparation for certificate submission in VEHCS.
  4. After the certificates are submitted to the USDA in VEHCS, the Pet Travel Consultant team will track and monitor the endorsement to completion on your behalf.
  5. Once the certificates are endorsed, the Pet Travel Consultant team can forward them to the pet owner or a third party on your behalf.

Hear What Satisfied Customers Are Saying

I am so happy with my experience with GlobalVetLink and their Pet Travel Concierge Service for International Health Certificates. I used this for the first time last week, and I wish I had used it before. It made the International Health Certificate process so much easier and less stressful.

Katie was so responsive to my emails and calls and made the whole process smoother. Customer service like hers is second to none, and I will definitely be reaching out to her in the future for all my hospital’s health certificate needs. I might even encourage my clients to travel with Australia with their pets so that we can use the service and interact with Katie.

I am so grateful for this service. Katie has been truly awesome. I have recommended this service to every DVM I know!

Katie set the bar very high for my first experience with GVL’s concierge service! This was my first international health certificate to work on, and I could not have done it without her help! She was amazing, very on top of every detail, and when we would run into a speed bump, she was already 10 steps ahead working it out. Highly highly recommend!!

Our office has been using GVL services for a little under a month and we are so pleased overall with the efficiency of the service and especially wanted to give a shoutout to Katie for her 5 star experience in preparing a 3 petter health certificate to Tunisia/Germany/Italy in a tight turnaround time. She successfully communicated with us and the client throughout the entire process and our entire team and DVM were so pleased with her efficiency in completing the task and her attention to detail. She was our lifesaver in helping prepare the travel documents this client needed and was super responsive and professional. We would rate her more than 5 stars if we could but wanted to make sure her praises we sung to the appropriate supervisor as she is a ROCKSTAR!!! We look forward to working directly with Katie in the future and especially look forward to continuing our services with GVL.

My experience with GlobalVetLink was 10/10. The Concierge Service Team was extremely helpful, communicative, and so kind! As someone who works in customer success, I have high standards for the customer service industry, and I cannot say enough good things about them. When things were coming down to the wire due to travel changes, they stayed calm and took ownership of making sure that George and I could travel. The team communicated directly with BarkAIR and followed up with me when needed to make sure they got everything they needed for our trip. Taking a dog to the UK is extremely stressful, and they made it so much easier; George and I would not be getting on our flight without them!
