The safest, most trusted pet transport service for your purebred dog.
COMMERCIAL & SEMI-PRIVATE AIRLINE IN-CABIN TRANSPORT • PRIVATE GROUND TRANSPORTATION
About Us
I founded Signature Pet Transport to help your pet safely travel from where they are to where they need to go.
I own and show an adorable and loving Cavalier King Charles Spaniel named Romeo and two beautiful Xoloitzcuintli named Julian and Enola.
They may be champion show dogs, but they are first and foremost my beloved pets, my family.
I promise to provide you the same level of service and excellence I’d expect for my own pets.
— Christian Diaz, Founder & CEO

If you need help flying your pets anywhere, I highly recommend these guys!”

Our Services
MOST POPULAR!
Commercial Airline In-Cabin Transport
For smaller dogs and puppies heading to their forever homes or their next show, commercial airline in-cabin transport is our most requested solution. A dedicated Travel Guardian picks up your dog at its departure location, provides attentive care throughout the entire journey, and delivers it safely to its destination. Available for both domestic U.S. and international travel.
Semi-Private Airline In-Cabin Transport
For larger or specialty breeds that aren't suited for commercial airline travel, semi-private air is the answer. Your dog travels in its own seat or a large carrier, with a Travel Guardian present for the entire flight. No shared terminals, no stressful crowds, and no cargo holds. Available for most domestic U.S. destinations and select international routes.
Private Ground Transport
For dogs of all sizes traveling across the U.S., private ground transport offers a calm, controlled experience with zero exposure to other animals. Your dog travels solo with a dedicated Travel Guardian, door to door, on their own schedule. Can accommodate up to 6 dogs from the same kennel, breeder, owner, or handler in a single transport.

You've spent years developing your dogs. The team you trust with their transport should meet that same standard.
Our licensed, professional pet travel guardians know what it takes to safely and comfortably deliver your precious show animal to where it needs to go.
OUR PROMISE
YOUR PET,
OUR PRIORITY
Our professional travel guardians are on duty for the entire transport which means your pet is accompanied by a caring human the entire trip.
HEALTH AND SAFETY FIRST
Our travel guardians are trained in pet CPR and have access to 24/7/365 veterinary chat and video consultation through FirstVet.
PEACE OF MIND AT EVERY STEP
You’ll receive photo and video updates during your pet’s transport, so you can see how loved and cared for they are.
SIGNATURE PROFESSIONALISM
Some companies use airline employees to transport pets and require under-the-table payments in cash. Our travel guardians are trained, insured, and only fly on full-fare tickets, eliminating the chance your pet is denied boarding.
Janice Hayes:
Why I TRUST Signature Pet Transport
“I trust him. I know I will get updates along the way. The owners will get updates along the way. You know the health documents will be spot on.
So going into other countries is not a problem because you've already done it all it's truly you get what you pay for with everything.”
Val Nunes-Atkinson:
the SPT Difference
“Communication, absolutely, NUMBER ONE. I mean, I think when I send my babies off, I've whelped 'em. I've raised them to eight weeks and then they're going off to new homes,
which in itself is really hard on our hearts. But then to have someone like Christian or someone from his company that I can trust fully, that they're real dog people, they know dogs and they CARE. They really care. And then they're gonna communicate with me all the way, like from beginning to end and videos and pictures, which is always nice too.”
Your dogs have earned the best. So have you.
When you work with SPT, you're not handing your dog off to a stranger with a carrier and a boarding pass. You're working with a team that knows the show world, understands what your dogs mean to you, and treats every transport with the same care and precision you bring to the ring.
Schedule your free 20-minute consultation and let's find the right solution for your next move.

“Everything went with ease when transporting our puppy to his new parents. It’s especially comforting to know all the travel guardians have experience with bulldogs and their special needs. With Signature Pet Transport you will have very professional communications and detailed transactions. They are a top-notch business we have used in the past and will continue to do so. You will not find better!!”
