Pet Relocation Service
Shillong → Gangtok

Our dog transport service on this route manages the descent into the valley heat and the climb back into the cool hills. Handlers keep water intake high through the Assam valley stretch, then dial it back as the road rises up the Teesta valley. Double-coated mountain breeds — huskies, malamutes, Tibetan mastiffs — find the valley warmth toughest but typically thrive once the vehicle reaches the Sikkim hills. Flat-faced breeds like pugs, boxers and bulldogs need close attention through the humid middle section. Short-coated and senior dogs benefit from warm bedding on the cooler Gangtok nights. Dogs prone to motion sickness get extra support on the winding Teesta valley road.

• Rest stops placed before and after the Assam valley stretch, not during it
• Crates matched to breed and size, with cooling mats for the valley and warm bedding for the Sikkim hills
• Live GPS tracking and photo updates across both days of travel

Our cat relocation service on this route is built around calm rather than activity. Cats travel in closed carriers lined with their own familiar bedding, are never placed beside unknown animals, and get litter access at rest stops chosen for their distance from engine noise and passing traffic. With an overnight halt along the route, the stop is arranged so your cat has a quiet, enclosed space to settle before the second day's climb up the Teesta valley. As the road gains height and the air cools, the cabin climate is adjusted so the change feels gradual rather than sudden.

• Closed carriers, never placed near unfamiliar animals
• Climate-controlled cabin with minimal handling throughout the journey
• A quiet overnight halt, then a steady final climb into Gangtok

Handlers Who Read Animals Well

A day and a half on a route that swings from cool hills into warm valley air and back into cool hills can quietly affect an animal's comfort, so our handlers watch closely for the subtle signs throughout. A dog panting harder than the conditions justify on the Assam valley stretch, a cat that has stopped grooming, a refusal to drink at the second stop, or a shiver on the climb up the Teesta valley that says the warm bedding needs to come out. Trained in animal behaviour and basic first aid, they catch small problems before they become serious ones.

Know Where They Are, Always

You'll know exactly where your pet is at every stage — descending past the Umiam lake through Nongpoh, dropping into the Assam valley at Guwahati, running west through Nagaon and Tezpur, threading the Siliguri corridor, following the Teesta up through Sevoke and Teesta Bazaar, crossing into Sikkim at Rangpo, and finally climbing past Singtam and Ranipool to Gangtok. Live GPS plus photo updates at every rest stop and at the overnight halt mean you're never left guessing where your companion is on the road.
