5 Quick Tips: Moving with Pets from Silk Touch Moves and Relocations

posted on November 13, 2017 by Toni Dee

  • Order your pet’s name/address tags before you move; secure the new tags on moving day. Consider a micro-chip in the event your pet gets loose in an unfamiliar neighborhood.
  • Pack an overnight bag for your precious pooches and curious cats. Include medicine, treats, leashes, bedding… whatever you know will provide comfort to your 4-legged friends in a new environment.
  • Visit the vet before you leave – up date shots, get copies of your pet’s medical history.
  • Choose a pet carrier for comfort. Account for size, cross-ventilation, and a secure door latch. Place a favorite toy and blanket inside to help your pet feel secure.
  • As much as you can, keep your pet away from the chaos of the move. Research doggie day-care in your new city.
