How TPTN Works

Four simple steps, on your terms

TPTN facilitates independent drivers — we don't set their prices, control their schedules, or take away your choice. Here's how a booking flows:

01
Browse or request

Search our verified drivers or submit a transport request with your pickup, destination and pet details.

02
Compare qualified drivers

Review credentials, insurance, reviews and services side-by-side. Save favorites for later — no rankings by price.

03
Message safely

Contact drivers through TPTN. Your phone and email stay hidden until you're both ready to book.

04
Track, review, rebook

Follow live trip updates, then leave a verified review and book that driver again with one tap.

Why Choose a TPTN Transporter

Vetted, insured, and independent — the way pet transport should be

Verified before they list

Every driver clears a background check, uploads a driver's license, business insurance, and commercial auto insurance before their profile goes public.

USDA & IATA-aware

Many of our drivers are USDA-registered, IPATA members, IATA/LAR certified, or hold pet first aid credentials — clearly badged on their profile.

Small businesses, not employees

Every driver is an independent business owner. They set their own prices, routes and standards. TPTN is a facilitator, not a boss.

Verified reviews only

You can only rate a driver after a completed transport. What you read is real customer experience — not anonymous marketing.

Private-by-default messaging

Contact information stays hidden inside TPTN until you both agree to book. You choose when to share your phone or email.

No bidding, no auctions

Drivers don't undercut each other for your business. Compare on experience, care, credentials — not lowest price.

Choosing your ride

Private or Shared — you decide what's right for your pet

One family, one journey
Private Ride
  • Your pet is the only passenger on the trip
  • Direct pickup and delivery — no other stops
  • Best for anxious pets, medical needs, or expedited timelines
  • Typically higher cost, faster door-to-door
Route-efficient companion travel
Shared Ride
  • Your pet travels alongside other pets on the same corridor
  • Driver keeps pets separated in individual crates or kennel bays
  • More affordable and eco-friendly
  • Great for flexible schedules and calm, socialized pets
Each driver publishes their own availability, capacity and pricing for both ride types. You'll always see who else may be on a shared route before you book.
