Flying is recommended and most cost effective for anyone located on the west coast or middle US. All airline travel fees and requirements are at buyer’s expense. We have a designated flight nanny who will accompany the puppy in cabin while flying to your nearest major airport. We will discuss a date/time and estimated time of arrival and make flight arrangements to best accommodate you. ETA’s may not always be exact, but our nanny will do their best to deliver the puppy at a reasonable time and be in contact along the way. Puppies are usually delivered same day or next day, but you must be flexible as flight times can change, be weather permitting, or get canceled. The weight of the puppy + the carrier the puppy must travel in may not exceed 20 lbs. therefore it is important for the puppy to fly between 8-9 weeks of age. The average cost for flying is $675+ depending on location. The delivery fee is due upon booking your flight. Our closest airport is Norfolk International Airport in Norfolk, Virginia. We require $60 for airport transportation trips since it is a 3 hour round trip for us. We prefer this method of delivery as it’s well worth it for families who live far. You have the peace of mind the puppy is flying accompanied and will arrive quickly. Please offer food and water upon receiving the puppy. 

If you need a delivery quote, feel free to reach out to us. Quotes are valid for 3 days.

You can cut the price of the flight nanny out completely if you choose to fly here yourself to pick up the puppy. Most airlines offer an ‘in cabin’ flat fee for hand carrying your pet. Puppies are required to be in an airline approved, soft sided carrier (pictured below) that fits under the seat. The puppy will count as one carry-on or personal item. Our closest airport is Norfolk International Airport in Norfolk, Virginia. We require $60 for airport transportation trips since it is a 3 hour round trip for us.
