James Cargo Services Reviews 

We had an amazing experience with Charlie, who helped us relocate our dog from the UK to Canada. He is incredibly organized, and we found the entire process ran very smoothly. We would recommend this company to anyone looking to make travel arrangements for their pets.

Absolutely brilliant. Professional and caring. Can’t recommend them enough. We transported a dog from Jordan and the whole expert was done professionally and with care. Amazing thankyou very much our little dog is doing really well

The JCS team have always been available, responsive and friendly in the multiple times I have flown with our precious dog Palmer. I am confident that he is well cared for and loved when traveling.
Thank you!!

JCS was absolutely incredible in terms of managing the whole process. They knew exactly what was needed and did a thorough pre-check to ensure the process was as smooth as possible and my puppy was cleared in just a couple of hours. Exception work

James Cargo took great care of Muffin.
I had to switch the pet handling company last minute on Friday, and James Cargo responded incredibly fast and I was able to book their service in less than a couple of hours.
They provided me with constant updates about my pet, and everything went smoothly. She was held at the airport for a couple of hours, but I received pictures which helped ease my anxiety a lot.
They also brought her directly to my home in a timely fashion once she was released from customs.
I am really happy with the service they offered

My dog , Labrador Retriever Grant traveled from Atlanta , Georgia , USA to Heathrow on a 9 hours flight. He arrived at 1140am . We were informed of his arrival by JCS and that we were NOT to go to the Animal Air Care Centre, until they notified us that Grant was ready for collection as it would take possibly 1-2 hours to get from the aircraft to arrive at the centre !!!!. We were then told it would take up to 4 - 6 hours to clear him !!!!!. We received no further communication at all. We were waiting to hear of Grants progress but still no notification at all from JCS so we drove to the centre arriving at approximately 5.50pm nearly 6 hours after Grant had arrived !!!!. We then contacted JCS at 6.04pm to say we were at the centre and what was happening only to get a reply of There is a parking Section Opposite , really we were already parked in it !!!! We asked again at 6.23pm what was happening as we had over a 3 hour journey to make to which there was no reply. By this time we were totally frustrated, annoyed and getting extremely angry with the inept attitude of JCS so we decided to enter the centre ourselves to inquire what was going on. We were met by a very helpful young man who informed us that we should had been told to sign in and that Grant was ready to go home and had been ready for some length of time. They stated that they had not heard from the agent from JCS !!! We eventually were given Grant at 7.15pm who was totally stressed out by the experience . This is NOT how we expected our dog to have been treated and the blase inept attitude of JCS was beyond belief. If a service is paid for we expect it to be done but obviously NOT in our case. If you are sending a LIVE animal at all we strongly recommend that you DO NOT use JCS but locate a more reliable reputable company. The only blessing is that we care about Grant and that he is still alive and now at home with no thanks to JCS. !!!

Brilliant from start to finish. My 3 dogs arrived and were clean, happy and not stressed. Would 100% recommend

Charlie was absolutely brilliant. What seems like a very stressful and exhausting experience he made smooth sailing. Great communication. Flying our cat and dog to Canada aside from vet appointments, they took care of everything. It really was stress free, I couldn't recommend more!

Knowledgeable, professional, effective.
Basicly all you need!
Very happy with the service :)

Massive, massive thank you to Rachel and the team at James Cargo services. Our Molly the labradoodle dog moved from the UK to Doha. Rachel made the experience easy, simple and smooth. She was attentive, answered all our questions quickly and guided us every step of the way. Even had a couple changes during the process and they handled it with ease and professionalism. I think John ( ex police dog handler) who picked our dog from northeast was superb, our molly is very anxious dog but he managed her with ease, very kind attentive person.
Price wise very competitive.
Their connection in Doha cleared my dog through customs smoothly and kept me informed through every step.
Special Thank you to Rachel and the whole team at James Cargo. We are very grateful to each of you.

I thought I would be waiting forever for my dog once landing at Heathrow, but time flew by! When I called JCS for an update, it was right then that I got an email that my dog was ready to go. Absolutely amazing and made the process a lot easier.

Very competent and professional people. Charlie made the whole process run very smoothly. Rachel didn't even forget the funnel for our dog King's water supply.
Highl recommended company.

Top service from start to end. Rachel was very patient and attentive to my questions and concerns. I had plenty of them so I appreciate the responsiveness. I contacted many agency and James Cargo gave the best price without compromising quality. Highly recommend them for a peace of mind to transport your pet.

Everything went really well with our dog's travel and despite being his first air travel he looked quite "chilled" on arrival.
Thank you for the J. Cargo team for keeping us up to date and for all the support

Excellent service and clear communication from start to finish. We are hugely grateful to the team for their role in importing our 2 cats into the UK and delivering them to our door. The trip wasn't quite as planned due to a hold up on the export end but JCS immediately responded to what was needed, helped me understand the paperwork that was needed and were genuinely kind to me, and the cats, through the whole process. Would highly recommend.

4 weeks ago my chow chow arrived from Manila … The guys at James cargo where fantastic a completely stress free experience.. Amy and Lisa are true professionals.. who know exactly what they are doing … 10 out of 10

Fantastic communication from the initial quote to the final destination. Quick response and a reassuring communication style kept the family at ease.

Rachel was efficient and had a fantastic understanding of all regulations for the export from Uk.

Linking the team with the import team in the UAE was easy and nothing was too much of a trouble.

A friendly, efficient and above all, a safe process for our dog. Can’t recommend highly enough.

Very smooth process transporting my dog Frankie from Jordan to the UK! Friendly team and very fast at replying to any questions I had. I would definitely use JCS if transporting any pets again. Thank you so much!

These guys were just excellent from first contact through to safe and sound delivery of our cats from UK to Dubai. Special mention for Steve who collected them for being so friendly, helpful, caring and compassionate - going the extra mile for us.

A big thank you to JSC Livestock for their amazing help in relocating my one-year-old Ragdoll from the UK to Taipei. Moving such a long distance with a cat was super stressful, but their clear and friendly communication made it so much easier.

I was really impressed by how comfortable my cat seemed in their custom-built kennel — it was obvious they prioritised her well-being. She arrived safely and is now happily settling in at our hotel.

A special shoutout to Charlie for his constant support and guidance. I’d definitely recommend JSC Livestock to anyone relocating their pets. They truly made the whole experience much smoother!
