“Best Experience of our lives”

Rebecca C.

I need to update my review on Chloe. She brought my 8 wk old Maltese puppy, Bentley, from Houston to Myrtle Beach, SC. Not only did Chloe take extra precautions regarding his health because he was so young. She also worked on me in the price. I was previously scammed by an unscrupulous (supposedly) breeder who not only took all of my money and didn't deliver the puppy and they also stole my identity. She worked with me on my budget. Not only was she in Houston for another transport, she made sure she picked him up the same day that I booked her. She treated him like he was also her own furkid. She drove straight through dealing with some pretty bad weather. She stayed in touch with me during the whole transport, arrived when promised. Chloe put me and my friend that bought him for me at ease. My friend said, she's an Angel. I didn't worry one bit and neither did my friend. After being scammed out of close to $2000. I would normally be leery of anyone who promised me the Moon but stole from me. I did not have one single doubt about her. There are not enough good things I can say about Chloe!

“BUYER BEWARE”

I was ripped off for $450.00 by a highly rated driver that they recommended to me. They stated that the driver had 50 trips and 5 stars. The driver ghosted me, did not show up on the date promised and kept my 450.00 deposit. When contacted, Citizenshipper took no responsibility and said I was on my own. Be very careful who you select because this company WILL NOT stand behind their drivers. It also became known after this happened that this driver was doing this to other people and Citizenshipper DID NOT notify or warn me.

I am in the process of the worst experience with this company (Citizens Pet Shippers) to the point where I am feeling scammed. For a kitten transfer from CA to TX. Of which I was never communicated ANY costs (except for the shipping required with the owner) here is what I've had to endure. Again, NONE of which was communicated upfront. 1. $1520 crate rental, 2. AFTER the kitten was transported to CA to CO for layover, I was THEN told to pay another $1500 for insurance or else the kitten would be placed for abandonment, 3. The kitten makes it to TX on a flight that arrived at 7p (of which they booked) and told me drop off would occur, to then say it was past 7p and dropoffs dont happen after 7p so overnight would be necessary. 4. THEN to wake up to them requested $980 for vaccinations, 5. THEN to tell me since the kitten has been in their care for over 16hrs, now quarantine was necessary unless I paid $3200. This has been absolutely ridiculous and at this point, the kitten can go somewhere else and my money needs to be refunded.
