Ensuring the safety and well-being of pets during air travel is a top priority for both owners and transport providers. At Animal Aircare, we have over 25 years of experience, specialising in the care of pets travelling by air. Our commitment to stringent security measures ensures that animals are protected from the moment they arrive at our facilities until they are reunited with their owners or continue to their next destination.
State-of-the-Art Facilities
Animal Aircare manages Border Control Posts (BCPs) at major UK airports, including London Gatwick and London Heathrow, incorporating Animal Reception Centres (ARCs). Our facilities are designed to provide a temperature-controlled, safe, and highly secure environment for all animals in our care. At London Heathrow, our facility is equipped with 48 spacious kennels, 22 catteries, and isolation rooms for birds and reptiles, ensuring that each animal has a comfortable and secure space during their stay.
Experienced Animal Welfare Officers
Our team of dedicated Animal Welfare Officers are responsible for the safe and secure handling of all animals we look after. They conduct thorough welfare checks, provide necessary care, and ensure that each pet’s specific needs are met. Their expertise and attention to detail play a crucial role in maintaining the highest standards of animal safety and well-being.
Rapid and Efficient Turnaround Times
Understanding that air travel can be stressful for pets, we prioritise minimising their time in transit. Our efficient processes aim to reunite pets with their owners as quickly as possible, with an average processing time of about two hours and 20 minutes. This swift turnaround reduces stress and ensures that pets spend minimal time away from their families.
Comprehensive Security Measures
To safeguard the animals in our care, we implement comprehensive security measures, including:
- Controlled Access: Our facilities are equipped with secure entry and exit points to prevent unauthorised access.
- CCTV Surveillance: Continuous monitoring of our premises ensures the safety and security of all animals.
- Trained Personnel: Our staff undergo rigorous training to handle animals safely and respond effectively to any emergencies.
Customised Care for Diverse Species
Beyond cats and dogs, we cater to a variety of species, including birds, reptiles, and other exotic animals. Our facilities include isolation rooms and specialised enclosures to meet the unique needs of different animals, ensuring their comfort and safety throughout their stay.
Commitment to Continuous Improvement
Animal Aircare is dedicated to enhancing our services and facilities continually. Our expansion to London Heathrow Airport reflects our commitment to providing top-notch care for pets across the UK. We strive to stay at the forefront of animal transport safety, ensuring that every pet entrusted to us receives the highest standard of care.
