# Taking a Dog or Cat to Pedernales? How to Plan Your Airport Transfer https://cbjairporttransfer.com/en/blog/pedernales-airport-transfer-with-pets Language: en Published: 2026-11-08 Last reviewed: 2026-11-08 By: CBJ Airport Transfer (A&M Caribbean Group SRL) Arrange the flight, road transfer and accommodation separately. Tell the transfer provider about your dog or cat, the carrier’s outside dimensions and combined weight, and everyone and everything that needs to fit in the vehicle. ## Confirm the flight and arrival airport Use the airport and operating airline on your ticket. For international travel, check current entry requirements with the Dominican animal-health authority and confirm any transit and return requirements for your route. Ask the airline how and where you will collect your animal. For a proposed CBJ arrival, check the airport’s operating status and confirm the actual flight and animal handling arrangements before relying on that route.

Add the number of passengers and all other bags or equipment. Ask the provider to confirm acceptance in writing, where the carrier will fit and how it can be secured. A vehicle’s seat count alone tells you little about usable space with all seats occupied. [Assess the planned vehicle classes](https://cbjairporttransfer.com/en/vehicles) ## Coordinate the first hotel and any stops Ask your booked property to confirm its rules for your animal, fees, hours and the entrance your driver should use. Match the full address to your reservation, especially if you are staying on the Cabo Rojo coast rather than in Pedernales town. If you need a stop, agree the location and what happens to the animal and carrier during the stop. Plan to keep the animal with you and avoid leaving it unattended in the vehicle. [Identify every party’s accommodation](https://cbjairporttransfer.com/en/hotels) ## Send one clear request for each direction “On …, flight … arrives at … local time at … airport. We are … passengers with … bags and … dog(s) or cat(s). Each carrier is … × … × … and weighs … with the animal. Our destination and entrance are … . Can you confirm acceptance, carrier placement, securing and total price?” For the return, send the departure airport and flight date and number, plus the hotel pickup date and local time as separate details. Ask for confirmation of both legs if you need a round trip. ## Reconfirm if something changes If the airport, flight, carrier, animal count or luggage changes, send the new details to the affected providers. Save their replies where you can access them offline. If animal collection takes longer, tell the driver or provider when you expect to be ready and ask them to confirm the revised pickup. Check any applicable waiting charges with them. ## Frequently asked questions ### Does airline approval cover the road transfer? Get separate acceptance from the road provider for your actual animal, carrier and party. ### Which dimensions should I send? Measure the outside length, width and height of each carrier and state the combined weight with the animal. ### Can I assume a hotel accepts my dog or cat? Ask the specific accommodation to confirm its rules, applicable fees and arrival arrangements for your dates. ### Does the outbound confirmation cover the return? Ask the provider to confirm each direction with its own airport, flight and pickup details. ## Sources and editorial notes Airport status is based on the dated official announcement below.
