Our Story

We're Pet People
First.

Big Dog Logistics Group built its pet transport division because we kept seeing how poorly the industry treated animals — as cargo, not companions. We knew there was a better way.

Every handler on our team was hired not just for their driving record, but for their genuine love of animals. That's the foundation everything else is built on.

Big Dog Logistics Group started in freight — moving pallets, managing supply chains, and building a reputation for reliability across the country. Along the way, clients kept asking the same question: "Can you move my pet too?"

At first we referred them elsewhere. But we kept hearing the same frustrations — animals showing up stressed, dehydrated, with no updates during transit. Pets treated like boxes. So we decided to do it ourselves, the right way.

"We applied the same standard we use for our most sensitive freight — only this time, the cargo has a heartbeat and depends on us completely."

We built our pet transport division from scratch: trained handlers who are animal lovers first, climate-controlled vehicles, real-time check-ins, and a policy of never rushing a trip at the expense of an animal's comfort.

Today we move dogs, cats, exotic animals, and specialty pets across all 50 states — and every single one arrives safely, because that's the only outcome we're willing to accept.

What We Stand For

The Things We
Won't Compromise On

❤️

Animal welfare above all

We will never rush a trip, skip a rest stop, or cut a corner when it comes to your pet's comfort and safety. Their wellbeing is non-negotiable at every step.

🔍

Total transparency

You'll know where your pet is and how they're doing throughout the entire journey. No radio silence, no vague updates — real photos, real locations, real communication.

Environment that fits each pet

Dogs, cats, reptiles, and birds all have different environmental needs. We configure the transport environment to suit your specific animal — not a one-size-fits-all approach.
