I needed to ship my cat to my new apartment and couldn’t ship her through an airline due to weather restrictions. I had to send her in a short time frame and citizen shipper helped to set me up with a courier super quick. Within minutes I had offers from certified couriers. It let me search through their profiles, read reviews about them, and it even showed me how many trips they’ve made. It saved me so much trouble and got my kitty safely to our new home.

Highly recommend!
I used citizenshipper.com to have my two puppies delivered to me and the experience was great. My driver was awesome with the updates and even arrived a whole day early. I would highly recommend them if you’re looking to ship/transport a pet.

Amazing service!!
After another company canceled last minute we were pressed to find a transport for our baby in a rush. We relocated from NY to Florida. Citizen shipper helped us find a bunch of companies willing to do it at a great price! I am so thankful we found all paws! They gave us a very fair price and a window of time that worked perfectly for us. All delays (because of traffic and what not) were clearly communicated. During the trip they provided a tracker so I could see where they were and texts daily and at my request. She sent pics with every text so I could see her. Our dog arrived safely and on the day discussed. She was very well taken care of and happy! We would highly recommend their services and will def use them again if needed! Citizen shipper makes it so easy to complete these transactions and for us to feel secure in our choice!! I will def use them for all my needs!

Neglected pets. Would not recommend!
I’m not certain the company knows who they have hired. At the very least they don’t do extensive background checks. I hired a man under the company and he neglected my ferrets. One of them was malnourished, the other having green poop from a diet of fired chicken and dog food he fed my animals the whole way. Despite me giving him everything he needed for the trip. They arrived to me not at all on time and covered in feces. Without my 250 dollar cage he promised he’d ship. I spent 2,000 dollars trying to repair the issue. He was rude and drove off with half of my stuff but had his underwear stuffed in my bag. I have picture evidence of one of my ferrets being zipped up in a duffle bag but the company did absolutely nothing to rectify this. The response states that my ferrets were in carriers, I knew two of them were for the ride but the other carrier ripped and his response was to put my ferret in a duffle bag. I have pictures!!!! He has an DEN airport tag on his bag! I’d never put one on the carriers because they have never been on a plane. They told me “he was an independent contractor and all they can do is request the money back.” I had known he wouldn’t give me the money do to the fact that I tried to negotiate with him when he arrived and he told me “my rats could go “duck” themselves.” I wouldn’t take a chance on a hit or miss website like this when your pets care is on the line. As to the response. I did say he could feed them chicken! Not spicy. However dog food is terrible for ferrets and the company keeps side stepping that and saying I approved chicken when I’m more upset about the dog food. I have pictures of all the abuse and the company still says it did not take place.

Emily,
We are very sorry to hear that you had such an unpleasant experience using our service. All of the drivers using our website are subjected to a very thorough background check using one of the industry's leading provider, a company called Checkr. And although all of them actively using our website have passed it, that doesn't necessarily mean that their decisions or actions sometimes won't go against your standards of behavior.
As per the messages your driver sent to us regarding your pets diet, you have replied that, quote: "She loves chicken".
Regarding the "duffle bag" issue, your ferrets were delivered in what's actually an airline approved mesh pet carrier that can be found and bought at Chewy or Petco, meaning it fulfills the standards for pet transportation.
Finally, the cage that was supposed to be delivered from a third-party didn't match the agreed upon conditions, as per the driver's testimonial.
We understand your frustration regarding the complete experience and your desire to be fully refunded. We have sent the same request to the driver, as we cannot legally enforce him to refund you, considering that the delivery was made. We are a third-party marketplace, so all the drivers using our website are independent contractors and not employees of CitizenShipper.
The driver is currently under investigation and if it is found that he has mistreated your pets in any manner, based upon all evidence provided, he will be banned and forbidden from using our website ever again. We kindly request that you submit any sort of evidence that will help us close this investigation, and we again apologize for all your inconveniences.
Thank you.
