Your Pet Deserves The Journey
Premium door-to-door ground transportation for dogs and cats across Canada. Small-group, carefully managed transport. Every pet in a secure carrier. Never in cargo.
“Your pet is never left unattended. Never in cargo. Every journey is personally supervised by a Pet Travel Specialist from welcome pickup to safe arrival, that is our promise.”
The Standard We Hold Ourselves To
Every decision we make, from the vehicle we chose to the routes we plan, is made with one question in mind: would we be comfortable if this were our own pet?
Mercedes-Benz Sprinter
Our high-roof Sprinter is purpose-built for pet comfort. Climate-controlled, spacious, and equipped with secure carrier mounts. Up to 4 pets per trip, each in their own secure carrier. Never in cargo.
Climate-Controlled Cabin
The cabin is maintained between 18°C and 22°C throughout the journey. Your pet travels in the same temperature-controlled environment as their Pet Travel Specialist.
Fully Insured Transport
NorthPaws operates with appropriate commercial insurance for professional pet transportation. If you have questions about coverage, we’ll be happy to discuss them with you before your pet’s journey.
Photo Updates En Route
Your Pet Travel Specialist provides regular photo and video updates throughout the journey. You will know exactly how they are doing not just when they arrive, but every step of the way.
Emergency Veterinary Protocol
We carry a first-aid kit and maintain a network of partner veterinary clinics along all major corridors. Your pet is never far from professional care.
Nationwide Canadian Service
From Halifax to Vancouver, from Quebec City to Calgary, we serve every major Canadian corridor. One company. One standard. Coast to coast.Built for One Purpose: Your Pet’s Comfort
We chose the Mercedes-Benz Sprinter high-roof because it is the best vehicle available for pet transportation. The high roof allows pets to stand naturally. The large windows provide natural light and ventilation. The climate system maintains a consistent temperature regardless of outside conditions. This is not a converted cargo van. This is a purpose-built pet transport vehicle, and it shows.
Every Pet. Every Route. Every Time.
