Raleigh NC Animal Transportation

At XO & CO Transport and Boarding, pets are treated like family every step of the way. I’m Denise — a lifelong animal lover whose career began as a veterinary assistant, where I helped with pit bull rescues and volunteered with transport organizations dedicated to safely reuniting pets with their forever families. Those early experiences sparked my passion for dependable, compassionate pet transport throughout Raleigh, Cary, Durham, Chapel Hill, and the greater Triangle area.

Today, XO & CO proudly offers USDA-licensed ground and flight nanny services for pets traveling both locally and nationwide. Whether your pet is heading to a nearby city or across the country, their comfort and safety remain my top priorities. Every route is thoughtfully organized for a smooth, low-stress trip from pickup to delivery. As a proud Coast Guard mom, I’m honored to extend a 10% military discount in appreciation of those who serve.

Ground Transport Services

Every pet deserves a safe and comfortable journey, whether it’s across town or across the country. XO & CO Transport provides nationwide, door-to-door ground transport customized to fit each pet’s unique needs. Serving Raleigh and surrounding areas such as Rolesville, Wendell, Smithfield, and Sanford, every trip is thoughtfully planned to ensure a calm, stress-free experience from pickup to delivery.

Pets ride in clean, climate-controlled vehicles with scheduled breaks every 3–4 hours, overnight stays at pet-friendly hotels when needed, and regular photo and location updates along the way. Choose solo transport for personalized care or shared transport for a friendly, cost-effective option. With USDA licensing, valid health certificates, and up-to-date vaccinations, you can trust that your pet is in safe, caring hands — because at XO & CO, every pet travels like family.

Flight Nanny Services

When your pet needs to travel a long distance or on short notice, XO & CO’s Flight Nanny Service provides a safe and caring way to fly, always in the cabin, never in cargo. Each trip is personally managed from check-in to arrival, ensuring your pet receives continuous care, comfort, and communication every step of the way. Departing from Raleigh-Durham International Airport (RDU), this service offers airport-to-airport delivery anywhere in the U.S., giving pet parents peace of mind wherever their pets need to go.
