Pet Stress Management

Moving or traveling can be stressful for pets, so managing their anxiety is key to ensuring a smooth experience. Start by maintaining a routine as much as possible in the days leading up to the move. If your pet is prone to travel anxiety, consult your vet about calming aids or medications. Create a comfortable, familiar environment in their carrier by placing their favorite blanket or toy inside. During the journey, talk to your pet in a soothing voice and offer reassurance. For extended periods of travel, plan regular breaks for exercise and bathroom needs. Reducing stress helps your pet cope with the changes and makes the journey less overwhelming.
