PAATS - Pet Moving Services - Nationwide
Hi! Thanks for stopping by my profile, I’m Michelle Hudson. A Mom to 4 adult children, a Nana, and a farmer's wife for the past 16 years. I’ve had fur-babies since I was a very little girl, over 50 years. Everything from cats and dogs to rabbits, horses and cows. At Cloud 9 Ranch, I know every one of our animals and their personalities, including our chickens. Home base is located near the foothills of the Great Smokey Mountains in Greeneville, TN.
My mission is to make sure your fur-baby gets from point A to point B safely, stress free and with all the love they would receive if they were able to travel with you.
We have over 50 transports in our first year of Business, all with 5 star reviews. I also work with several rescues, helping to get their pups/kittens to new foster or forever homes.
There are several things that need to be taken into account when hiring a transporter for your fur-baby. So, choosing the lowest bid may not yield you the results you want. Cheaper is not always better. As a transporter, we need to take into account:
* gas prices in various location
* vehicle maintenance
* emergency repairs
* hotel/motel rooms for longer trips
* Time spent for walks and restroom breaks (where applicable), feeding and play time.
*Our highest priority is the safety and well being of your pet(s) being transported. We know it is hard to trust someone else with your baby(s), but rest assured, we will take good care of them.
*We do our best to give an approximate ETA, but there will be circumstances that are out of our control. Things such as weather and traffic can all affect our ETA. We will be in contact with you immediately should anything delay our estimated arrival time.
*PUPPIES: any puppy under 4 months of age will not be allowed to leave the vehicle under any circumstance. This is for their own health, as they do not have the immune system to fight off various diseases. The vehicle will be equipped with training pads, and these will be changed out as often as necessary.
*CATS: Cats will need to be crated. EVERY cat will have a litter box that they have free access to. This will be cleaned at every stop along the way.
*We ask that you supply the food. As a change in food can cause an upset tummy leading to diarrhea and vomiting (that never makes for a fun trip for them or us).
We offer VIP (Private) transports:
Your pet will be our only passenger, for this reason, the fee will be higher. For longer VIP trips, we stay in pet friendly hotels or Airbnb's. You fur baby will stay in the room with us. We travel all lower 48 states for VIP trips.
If you still have questions, please feel free to reach out.
I appreciate you taking the time to read all of the above, I hope I have answered many of your questions, if not, please just message me. I look forward to talking to you more about your needs. Please contact and book my pet moving services on Petworks. Thank you.
