Blue Collar Pet TransportReviews of bluecollarpettransport.com

Allow me to update the review below, which I wrote with extreme frustration. I paid a deposit to Blue Collar and then was able to make alternative arrangements for my dog (I flew with my dog myself). It took me months and months of calling to get my deposit returned. Ultimately they did return the money but it took dozens of calls, reviews like the one below, calling their workers, disputing charges. They fought me along the way. I was "nice" at the end just to get my money back but it took hours and hours of my time to get them to respond. It was never clear to me why the didn't simply return the money I paid as I had made alternative arrangements a few days after paying the deposit and NEVER agreed to any dates. The made ZERO effort to secure transit for my dog. I stand by my initial assertion that I would NEVER trust blue collar and would NEVER use their service. I'm grateful I got my money back but this company is extremely problematic to do business with if they can't quickly issue a refund on a deposit. On last note: I left this review in 2024...it took them over TWO YEARS to respond. That should tell you all you need to know about how competent this company's management is. Here's the original review from 2024 (it's now September 2026) after trying for weeks to get them to refund my $810 deposit for a service I never used or scheduled: Blue Collar is a scam. They stole my $810 deposit. Their owner, Richard Hardy, is a thief. They refuse to return a deposit for a service I cancelled long before any dates had been agreed to. If this company can't live up to their own contract which states they will issue a full refund, imagine what kind of shortcuts they take with your pet. I would never entrust my pet's life with these people.

Savannah cat from San Diego to Illinois. Door to door service was amazing, lots of communication and he arrived in the time estimated in great shape!

Great experience with owner Rick shipping our dog from FL to CA. Dog arrived fast, safe and happy - thank you Rick!

Blue Collar did an excellent job transporting our car and our dog from NY to TX. Our driver Jeff was great to work with. He kept us updated the entire trip with pictures and text messages. He took great care of our dog and car and was very accommodating. I HIGHLY RECOMMEND THEM.

Has to be the worst operation out there. They book below minimum wage jobs, and to make things worst they take weeks and you have to remind them to pay you. They have been caught many times stealing tips that customers left for the drivers. They are known for killing dogs with their affiliates. Also, their little secretary Jeff runs his mouth all the time and threatens the drivers because he basically wants to funnel all the jobs to himself. Best interests to not book with them. Thank you

I had great experience with blue collar transport for many reasons, the main one being resources were limited and a friend recently lost a pet traveling by air. I used them to deliver my precious Frenchie to my brother for the holidays, I'd be arriving the following week. I was terrified to leave my fur baby but the driver Dave keep me updated via text msgs so that was reassuring. I recommend them to everyone I know. They were reasonable, professional and to be honest I think I lucked up with a phenomenal driver, 10/10 ALWAYS recommend!

If I could give a 0 review I would. This company had been contracted to move my sister-in-law's 4 dogs from California to Canada as she was coming home (Canada) to spend her last days with her family. She had terminal cancer. The schedule was organized, Blue Collar would pick up the dogs on Tuesday, the movers would come on Wednesday and my two sister's in law would fly on Wednesday evening. This was all before Blue Collar FAILED TO SHOW UP AS PLANNED. They didn't call and cancel, they failed to show up. When an alternate day was finally scheduled, the driver informed us he wasn't intending to give two of the dogs insulin because he was just a driver. We had prearranged for a vet tech to be with them to give them insulin. This was all bad enough, but because of their initial failure to pick up the dogs, my terminally ill sister in law had to sleep on the floor of her empty house, IN PAIN, because the furniture was gone and she couldn't take 4 dogs to a hotel. She couldn't take her scheduled flight and two family members took unpaid time off work, flew to California, rented a van and took 3 days to bring her and the dogs home. SHE WAS TERMINALLY ILL and really unable to safely travel for 3 days without medical care, and in pain over every bump. She passed away a month later. Blue Collar not only fails to reimburse the family for costs incurred but also fails to answer emails of return phone calls to address this issue. The only reason I finally got a big fat NO to reimbursement of costs is because I kept calling and told them I would keep calling. PLEASE DO NOT USE THIS COMPANY. THEIR DISREGARD FOR A DYING WOMAN AND HER FAMILY IS ABSOLUTELY DISGUSTING.

I would highly recommend Blue Collar for your pet transport. I adopted a dog from China No Dogs Left Behind. I live in Florida and the dog I wanted was in Albany, NY! The dog could only be flown into Miami due to her having to fly in cargo and Miami bound planes provided proper air quality for the pups. I contacted Blue Collar since I am almost 150 miles from Miami and didn't wish to be a Miami airport 10:00 pm especially not being familiar with it. I spoke to Jennifer Conrad who was very helpful and set me up to have my dog delivered to my door. Although it was expensive, it was worth it. Jeff Miller, the transport driver kept me updated all the while and was extremely helpful! I would definitely use them again if needed. None of the other transports I contacted were helpful, didn't call back, etc.!
