The Nation’s Leader in Private Pet Relocation
Concierge-level pet relocation backed by unparalleled expertise in animal welfare, meticulous travel coordination, and dedicated one-on-one care for families expecting exceptional service and absolute peace of mind.
UNMATCHED EXPERTISE
Founded by Nationally Recognized Leaders in Animal Welfare
Cabin Companions was built on decades of hands-on experience in animal welfare, feline care, and complex pet relocation. Co-founder Monica Tarant has spent more than 30 years helping lead lifesaving animal welfare initiatives across the United States and internationally, overseeing the relocation and care of tens of thousands of animals throughout her career.
Today, that expertise informs every Cabin Companions journey — combining meticulous travel coordination, deep behavioral understanding, and dedicated one-on-one care for pets whose families expect more than basic transportation.
Because when transporting a beloved pet, there is no substitute for experience.
THE EXPERIENCE
A Personalized Experience From Start to Finish
Every Cabin Companions journey is thoughtfully designed around your pet’s needs, comfort, and travel experience — combining expert planning, personalized guidance, and dedicated one-on-one care from departure to arrival.
Thoughtfully Coordinated Travel
Every journey is custom-designed around your pet’s temperament, comfort, medical needs, travel route, and stress level — drawing on decades of experience with complex relocations, sensitive animals, and international travel logistics.
Personally Escorted Care
Your pet is personally accompanied by an experienced member of our three-person team from departure to arrival — never handed off between contractors or treated like cargo. Every journey is handled with calm, individualized attention and direct communication throughout.
Experience Unmatched
Our team’s background in animal welfare, sheltering, veterinary care, and complex transport coordination allows us to navigate anxious pets, behavioral challenges, medical considerations, and difficult international journeys with calm, experienced oversight.
REAL CLIENT EXPERIENCE
“Cabin Companions took the stress of moving my furry family members myself out of the equation during a cross country move.”

Las Vegas → Portland, Maine
Personally Escorted Travel for a Sensitive Rescue Cat
Coordinated a carefully paced cross-country relocation for Lacey, a sensitive rescue cat traveling from Las Vegas to her new home in Maine. After pickup from a veterinary appointment, she traveled with a dedicated member of our team, including an overnight stay designed to keep the journey calm, comfortable, and low-stress throughout.
San Fransisco → Columbus, Ohio
4-Day Private Ground Journey
Ground Travel for a Cancer Survivor
Abby traveled from San Francisco to Columbus, Ohio through a privately escorted cross-country ground journey designed around her comfort, medical history, and pace. Too large to safely fly and recovering from cancer treatment, she remained with a dedicated member of our team throughout the trip, including personalized rest stops, overnight stays, and calm one-on-one care from departure to arrival.
New York → Bangkok, Thailand
International Relocation for Two Families and Four Cats
Coordinated two separate international relocations for sisters moving from New York to Bangkok with their cats — Tommy, Hammond, Tiger, and Emily — within the same month.
