Best Tips for Moving with Pets

#1 Prepare a Pet Moving Kit

Before moving day, prepare a dedicated pet moving kit with all the essentials your pet will need during the transition. Make sure to include enough food and water for a few days, along with their bowls. Bring their favorite toys, blankets, and bedding to provide familiarity and comfort. Ensure you have any necessary medications and a copy of your pet’s medical records. Also, be prepared with waste bags, paper towels, and cleaning solutions, as accidents can happen. Having these items easily accessible will help keep your pet calm and comfortable during the move. You won’t have to spend time to searching for your pet’s things and they will be easily accessible whenever you need them.

#2 Keep Your Pet Secure on Moving Day

Moving day can be chaotic, with doors frequently opening and closing and unfamiliar faces around. To keep your pet safe, place them in a secure crate or carrier in a quiet room away from the commotion, and label the room to prevent movers from entering. Make sure your pet’s ID tag and microchip information are up to date with your new address and phone number. If possible, set up a familiar space for your pet at your new home before introducing them to the entire apartment. This could include their bed, toys, and a few personal items. Having a secure space for your pet will give you peace of mind knowing that they’re safe and they will be able to ease into their new surroundings.

#3 Ease the Transition to the New Home

Helping your pet adjust to their new environment is crucial for a smooth transition. Allow your pet to explore one room at a time, starting with a smaller, quieter area and gradually introducing them to the rest of the apartment. Stick to your pet’s regular feeding, walking, and playtime schedule to provide a sense of stability and normalcy. Take your pet on short walks around the new neighborhood to help them acclimate to the new sights, sounds, and smells. Allowing them to get comfortable with their new surroundings will ease some of their anxiety around the move and you will be able to relax in your new space knowing that your pet is settling in.
