Awesome website, made it super easy and convenient to find a last minute shipper for our puppy. Found an awesome shipper and will book with him any time we need to send a pup out of state. LV pet transportation services was great and took good care our our pup and delivered her fast to her new family!
15 hour transport of puppy -- from breeder to new owners house. Safest way to transport her during cold temperatures. Driver stopped for bathroom breaks and feedings. Updated us on status at times during trip -- phone calls and pictures.
Thank you for your recommendation and such a great review Tracey, we wish you happy holidays with your loved one! :)
I used citizen shipper to find the best puppy shipper ever. I found Golden Voyages and he took 3 puppies from Missouri to Florida. It was easy to find a good person to do this on there because citizen shipper lists all their reviews along with the number of shipments made and how many incomplete shipments they had. I found a 5 star shipper and he didn't disappoint.
Thank you for you kind words Lindsay, we sincerely appreciate your recommendations and look forward to help you with any future shipping needs :)
Our beloved dog Jack was transported from Boston to NC and finding the right person for the job was easy on this site. Dennis did an amazing job with Jack and we couldn't be more pleased. Thank You!
Thank you for your review Jennifer, we're very happy to hear everything went smooth with your pet's relocation and wish you the happiest holiday season with your loved ones. :)
Citizenshipper provided me with multiple quotes within a matter of days! I had the opportunity to work with Crystal and she was absolutely amazing! My budget didnt allow me to meet the bid amount that she originally offered but she did not hesitate to accommodate! She was very understanding and very sweet! This website was very organized and easy to navigate. I would transport my fur babys again through this site!
Thank you so much for such an in depth review Kamille, it has been our utmost pleasure to accommodate your relocation needs. We hope you have the best holiday season ahead!
Tim did a great job taking our cat to Texas. There was excellent communication up front, with Shawn. Tim even took photos and sent them to us, while in transit. I cannot recommend them more highly! Outstanding service.
Thank you Paul! We appreciate your amazing review and we're delighted to hear you had such a great experience using our service :)
Listed a trip for a service dog for a trip from Florida to New York and had 5 quotes within 15 minutes. Very easy to use website and a LOT of choices!
Thank you for your review, we appreciate your kind words and recommendations :)
I didnt realize you could basically pay people to ship things. I needed to get my 12 year old pup to Maryland from Oklahoma, but I was about to move to the complete other side, California. Flying her only gave me nightmares. The site is well constructed and you put in your details, and drivers bid on the shipment. You can then review the shippers profiles and pick the one that best fits you. My driver and I had a miscommunication at first, but he quickly fixed it and gave me some of my money back for the mistake. Overall, a great service.
Thank you so much for your review Angelina, we appreciate your honest and in depth feedback and we're very happy to hear that your overall experience was good. We hope to be able to assist you again in the future for any relocation needs! :)
I utilized Citizenshipper to find someone to take my dog back to his original owner. I had developed a very serious dog allergy and time was of the essence to get him home over the Thanksgiving break. I was able to search my phone for pet transport and found Citizenshipper. The platform was easy to understand, even from my mobile device, and I was able to utilize the text features in order to know when people were bidding on the job. Communication back and forth with the potential drivers was easy, as well as accepting a bid and paying the (very reasonable) Citizenshipper fee. I was able to find someone who got the dog home in a timeframe that was very quick, and with a reasonable price. I was even able to rate the driver almost instantly. It was a great service. Other sites, like uShip couldn't come close, and I'm glad I chose Citizenshipper. I've included a photo of my boy on his journey home that the driver sent me!
Thank you so much for such an amazing review! We are extremely pleased to hear that you've found the experience of using our website to book a pet transporter easy and seamless, and appreciate all your kind words and recommendations. We hope to be able to assist you again in the future, with any kind of shipping needs you might have. Have a wonderful holiday season!
JENNIFER ON TIME, FRIENDLY AND TIMELY DELIVERY, MY DOG GOING TO A GOOD HOME WITH DAUGHTER IN SO CAROLINA
Thank you for your feedback Mark, we hope that your daughter spends the best possible holiday season along with its pooch :)
The transporter for my pet was great. My kitty arrived safe and happy. The transporter was friendly and provided me with updates along the way.
Thank you for your feedback and recommendations Debbie, we hope to be able to assist any of your future shipping needs :)
Several offers came in and I had freedom to select on my own. I could eliminate and select based on my personal needs/criteria. Initial communication was private, but I could converse with each offer and made my selection securely and without pressure. I liked going thru Citizen Shipper. I felt I had control over this important (to me) decision.
Thank you so much for your feedback Char, customer ability to choose their ideal transporter instead of settling with one is one of our core mission statements and we're happy to see it being recognized and appreciated. Have a great holiday season! :)
As a community based shipping service, Citizenshipper gave us in the rescue world a sense of reassurance with transporting rescues to safety in their network of transporters. As with any service, it is the responsibility of the client to vet the service. Whether it be a foster home, rescue to rescue transfer or adoptive home, to the service used in providing a safe arrival of that rescue pet. Citizenshipper provides the extra resource with oversight of their transporters that use this site. Any concerns whether it is minimal to considerable is addressed quickly by the CS reps. In my experience, reading the profiles and the terms of the exchange to open communication is vital to a successful transport. Working with a couple of these transporters in the last couple of months, EVERY transport of our vulnerable rescue pets taken out of harm's way was without a doubt, transported with over and beyond compassionate care for them. Absolutely amazing job well done. Thank you to Bailey's Best Care and A203Transportation in providing professional and caring transport of our rescue dogs.
Thank you so much for such an in depth review Dena, it has always been our utmost pleasure to accommodate the relocation needs for rescues and we look to continue doing the same in the foreseeable future. We hope you had a great Thanksgiving and wish you all the best throughout the rest of the holiday season!

The lady that delivered my pet was amazing! She brought my purse at home and a nice timely fashion. And my animal was well taken care of while in her care
Thank you Tara, we appreciate your recommendation :)
Very helpful in helping me get my dog returned from Calif. To Texas in a rush!
Excellent service. Hope to use them again on my next journey. This is much better than shipping by plane. My dog felt more at home and well taken care of.
Love this service! We will be using this service more often! First time user!
Thanks Lynn

Thank you Germaine, we're glad that Tobey rose to the occasion and removed the anxiety from the whole experience! We hope to have an opportunity to offer you the same kind of service again for any kind of shipping needs :)
Needed my pup shipped home last minute and they delivered with excellent service and great timing. Absolutely a wonderful idea would recommend to anyone needing something shipped far at a fair price.
Thank you for your feedback Anthony, we're happy to hear that you were able to find someone reliable and affordable using our website :)
Answer: Teresa, thank you for your question! As a shipping customer, besides the payment for the quote provided by the driver using our website, you are due a small booking fee which depends and fluctuates based on the bid. To learn more about how fees work, please visit out help center article -https://citizenshipper.zendesk.com/hc/en-us/articles/202363429-How-much-does-it-cost-to-use-CitizenShipper-
Answer: The driver directly you just pay the booking fee to the site when you accept the bid.
Answer: You should be able to google them and find reviews, meanwhile when you click on their business information it tells you if they are certified and verified that is all you really need and then there are reviews posted their along with their star rating and how many transports they have completed.
Answer: Hi Derri, if that company is listed on our site and has done deliveries, they may have reviews from previous customers.
Answer: Hi Elizabeth, we sure can transport birds. Just go to www.citizenshipper.com and list your posting with the location, the type of bird, and the dates you need to transport. You will then receive bids from drivers and can communicate with any of them until you find the one you want.
Answer: My booking fee was US$79 and did not get my US$25 rebate as promised in an email from CitizenShippers. Booking fee far to high
