Professional Pet Taxi from London to Europe by Road
When it comes to transporting your pet across borders, safety, comfort, and compliance are key. A pet taxi from London to Europe by road offers a direct and stress-free alternative to flying or using public transport. At Europtaxi, we specialise in road-based pet travel across Europe, ensuring your pet remains secure, calm, and cared for throughout the journey.
Whether you’re moving, travelling for work, or reuniting your pet with family abroad, our road-based service provides a reliable door-to-door solution tailored to your needs.
Why Choose Road Travel for Your Pet?
Road travel is often the best option for pets, especially when compared to flying. It offers a more stable environment and less exposure to noise, crowds, and disruptions. Here’s why road-based pet taxis are a popular choice:
- No cargo holds – Pets stay in a secure, climate-controlled cabin, not under the plane.
- Direct collection and drop-off – We pick up your pet in London and deliver straight to your European destination.
- Reduced stress – No unfamiliar terminals, transfers, or noisy aircraft.
- Tailored care – Pets receive individual attention throughout the journey.
We also offer local support through our Kent Pet Taxi service for clients based in the South East.
What You Need for Pet Travel to Europe
Moving a pet from the UK to Europe involves meeting the European Union’s entry requirements. Our team helps you manage these legal steps so nothing is missed.
Your pet will need:
- Microchipping: This must be done before vaccination.
- A valid rabies vaccination, administered at least 21 days before travel.
- An Animal Health Certificate, issued within 10 days before entry to the EU.
We coordinate with your vet and check all documents before travel to avoid any issues at the border.
Using the Eurotunnel for Pet Travel
We typically use the LeShuttle Pet Travel service via the Eurotunnel to reach Europe. This is the fastest and most pet-friendly route from the UK to mainland Europe.
Advantages of using the Eurotunnel:
- 35-minute journey under the Channel.
- Pets remain in the vehicle with their handler.
- Less noise and fewer changes than other transport methods.
We then continue by road to your final destination, whether that’s in France, Belgium, Germany, or beyond.
Preparing Your Pet for Road Travel
To ensure a smooth experience, follow these preparation steps:
- Book a vet appointment in advance to issue your Animal Health Certificate.
- Get your pet used to their travel crate or harness before the journey.
- Provide essential items such as food, medication, and a familiar blanket or toy.
- Let us know about feeding times, medical needs, and any special behaviour to watch out for.
Whether you’re transporting a dog or cat, we offer specific Dog Pet Taxi and Cat Pet Taxi services to suit different breeds, sizes, and temperaments.
