At XO & CO Transport and Boarding, I believe pets deserve the same love, comfort, and attention while traveling as they do at home. I’m Denise — a lifelong animal lover whose journey began as a veterinary assistant. Working with pit bull rescues and volunteering with animal transport groups taught me just how vital safety, compassion, and clear communication are when helping pets reach their new families. Those early lessons continue to shape my work today, serving Virginia Beach and nearby areas including Norfolk and Richmond.
Through XO & CO, I proudly provide USDA-licensed ground and flight nanny services designed to make travel easier for pets and their owners. Whether your companion is headed across Virginia or all the way across the country, every trip is handled with care — from detailed planning and updates to ensuring your pet’s comfort along the way. My goal is always a smooth, stress-free experience from pickup to delivery. As a proud Coast Guard mom, I also offer a 10% military discount in appreciation of those who serve.
Travel can be overwhelming for pets, but XO & CO Transport makes every journey calm, comfortable, and safe. Whether your companion is going across Virginia or traveling from coast to coast, we provide dependable, door to door ground transport designed around your pet’s needs. Serving Virginia Beach and nearby communities such as Chesapeake, Portsmouth, Suffolk, and Newport News, each trip is carefully coordinated with attention to detail and genuine care from beginning to end.
Your pet enjoys a clean, climate controlled ride with planned breaks every few hours, overnight stays at pet friendly hotels when necessary, and frequent photo and location updates so you’re always in the loop. Choose solo transport for personalized attention or shared transport for an affordable, social option. With USDA licensing, valid health certificates, and up to date vaccinations, you can rest assured your pet is in professional, compassionate hands because at XO & CO, every journey is guided by comfort, safety, and love.
XO & CO’s Flight Nanny Service makes air travel safe, simple, and full of care for your pet. Every flight is personally managed from beginning to end, ensuring your companion stays comfortable and calm throughout the journey. Departing from Norfolk International Airport (ORF) in Virginia Beach, this service provides airport-to-airport delivery anywhere in the United States, giving pet parents peace of mind no matter the distance.
Your pet always travels in the cabin, never in cargo, seated close to an experienced flight nanny who monitors them every step of the way. Each trip includes ongoing communication, real time photo updates, and a reassuring handoff at arrival. From check-in to the happy reunion at your destination, XO & CO delivers a warm, stress-free travel experience, treating every pet as if they were part of the family.
