Dog Relocation Services From Canada to Germany
Moving your dog across continents is not just a trip—it’s a complex operation that demands precision, compliance, and care. At Pearl Lemon Pets, we handle every detail of dog relocation from Canada to Germany so your companion arrives safely, calmly, and ready to settle into a new home. If you’re preparing for this transition, you know that paperwork, vaccinations, travel arrangements, and regulatory requirements can swiftly become overwhelming. We manage it all, giving you peace of mind while keeping your dog’s comfort and well-being at the forefront.
Our Services
Our dog relocation services from Canada to Germany combine knowledge, logistics, and hands-on support. Every step is designed to resolve the challenges pet owners face when moving internationally.
Health and Vaccination Compliance
Dogs entering Germany must meet strict vaccination requirements, including rabies inoculation and parasite prevention. Our team reviews your dog’s current health records, ensures vaccinations meet German standards, and schedules any required treatments. We coordinate with veterinarians and health authorities, eliminating the risk of travel delays.
By handling all compliance requirements, we ensure your dog clears border inspections smoothly, avoiding quarantine issues and travel stress.
Documentation and Permit Management
International dog relocation is paperwork-heavy. From microchip registration to import permits and health certificates, one missed document can delay your dog’s journey. We handle document collection, translation, and submission to German authorities, keeping you informed every step of the way.
Our meticulous documentation process reduces uncertainty, letting you focus on settling your own affairs in Germany while we manage official compliance for your pet.
Travel Arrangement and Airline Coordination
Booking air travel for dogs involves more than reserving a seat. Cabin versus cargo rules, airline-specific kennel requirements, and timing restrictions must all align. Our team negotiates directly with airlines, arranges flights that minimise transit stress, and ensures kennels meet International Air Transport Association (IATA) standards.
This reduces the chances of last-minute cancellations or complications, ensuring a safe, smooth transit for your dog.
Custom Crate Preparation
A well-fitted crate is essential for stress-free air travel. We assess your dog’s size, temperament, and comfort needs to select a crate that complies with airline and IATA regulations. We also provide guidance on familiarising your dog with the crate before departure, ensuring a calm journey.
Proper crate preparation prevents injuries, reduces anxiety, and simplifies the boarding process at the airport.
Door-to-Door Transport
Ground transportation in both Canada and Germany can be as complex as the flight itself. Our logistics team manages door-to-door transport, coordinating pickups, drop-offs, and layovers to minimise travel time. We employ vehicles equipped for pet comfort, including temperature control, safety harnesses, and experienced handlers.
By controlling every segment of the journey, we keep your dog secure and comfortable, even in transit to and from airports.
Quarantine and Border Handling
While Germany has minimal quarantine for compliant dogs, errors in documentation or health checks can trigger delays. Our team ensures that your dog meets all entry requirements and, if necessary, arranges any temporary accommodations to satisfy border regulations.
Handling border processes professionally minimises stress for both you and your dog while ensuring a smooth transition.
Post-Arrival Support
Arriving in Germany isn’t the end of relocation. Settling into a new environment can be stressful for dogs. We provide guidance on acclimating to your new home, local veterinary registration, and understanding German pet regulations such as leash laws and mandatory microchip registration.
This support ensures your dog adjusts immediately and comfortably to the new environment.
Emergency and Contingency Planning
Unexpected events—flight delays, health concerns, or last-minute changes—can occur during international relocation. Our team maintains contingency plans for emergencies, including rerouted flights, backup kennels, and access to veterinary care.
With proactive planning, we reduce risk and respond immediately to unforeseen situations, giving you confidence that your dog’s welfare is always prioritised.
