Why Choose Dogmovers?

Dogmovers are a small family owned business based in South East QLD. We have several different levels of Interstate Pet Transport services running regularly throughout the Eastern States of Australia from Adelaide to Cairns. Our most common routes are covered weekly as part of our Express services with trips between the major cities normally being overnight services. More specialised or individually customised services run less regularly on demand. For information relating to each service, see below.

Express Transport

These are typically regular Weekly or Fortnightly scheduled runs with set timetables similar to a bus service. These are our most economical services, covering all the main towns and cities on the primary routes up & down the East Coast. Prices are based on having clients meet us at central points in most towns and the cost of each trip is spread between many customers to keep the cost down. The prices are based on a set regional pricing structure with discounts available to regular clients, breeders, and Rescue Organisations. Read More.

Premium Transport

These are more Specialty services designed to cater for Extra Large Breed Dogs, BOAS Affected Brachycephalic animals, Pets with special needs or simply for clients who would prefer a greater degree of attention or feedback during the trip. The Premium Services can also cater to more remote locations not catered to by our Express services. This is a full Door to Door service, more loosely scheduled but with greater flexibility. The cost of each trip may be spread between several customers and the prices are calculated using a per km charge which increases for pets travelling to more remote areas. Read More.

Priority Transport

The Priority Service is a fully individualized trip, typically catering specifically to your own Pet Family’s needs whether you have 1 animal or 30. We can fully customise a trip to suit your own needs and time frame. This service can cater to extreme or special needs, specific times and dates and can travel everywhere utilising any combination from our fleet of SUV’s, Vans, Floats and Pet Transport Buses. Whilst this is the highest cost option, it is also the most flexible and can actually work out very economically if you have a large number of pets. Read More.

Updated 23 July 2021

Please be aware that until further notice we are unable to take enquiries from new clients for transport on our southbound routes between QLD or NSW and Victoria.

We will still process existing enquiries for these routes (received prior to the 23^rd July) plus enquiries from existing clients and those from new clients on other routes. However due to the unmanageable quantity of enquiries we are receiving as a result of the ever changing Border conditions we will have to say no to many. We expect this situation will last for approximately one to two weeks.

Please Read the following important information regarding our response times and lead times for bookings to avoid frustration if we are unable to respond as quickly as you would like.

Due to the large volume of enquiries being received due to Covid Lockdowns, restricted flight numbers and continuous Border restriction changes we cannot currently assist with, or even respond to all enquiries we are receiving within a reasonable time. At the time of writing we have over 800 pending enquiries awaiting a response and it is taking up to 7 working days to provide some quotes. We must continue to deal with existing requests before accepting new enquiries.

Whilst our response times and booking lead times are increasing, our road based services are continuing as usual as we do have Freight/Essential Services exemptions and a Covid Safe business plan in place.

We have also increased the number of interstate trips we are doing but our trips are currently booking out more quickly on all routes and especially the southbound trips between QLD or NSW and Victoria despite having multiple weekly services on these routes.

Your best contact option for new enquiries is the online quote form on our Website or for regular clients by email provided you include all the relevant details regarding the animals and pick up & delivery locations.

Whilst we are still taking enquiries by phone, please be prepared to leave a message and wait on a response, we are constantly on the phones and therefore missing most incoming calls. Because we deal with all new enquiries in the order they come in, phone messages regarding quotes will also take several days to be responded to.

If your Enquiry is marked Urgent or ASAP we will be unable to assist as it would likely be 2-3 weeks before we could respond and provide an available space for your Pets transport.

Our Customer service follow up regarding Bookings already in the system is normal, and this always takes priority over new enquiries. If you are phoning regarding a current booking please leave a message and we will call back as soon as we can. If possible email us via info@dogmovers.com.au instead.

We apologise for any inconvenience and delays, and assure you we are doing everything within our power to speed the process up and thank you all for your patience.
