For Immediate Release:

AUSTIN, Texas - May 11, 2009:  PetRelocation.com has been honored with the 2008-2009 Re:locate Magazine's annual Relocation Service Provider of the Year - Specialist Supplier award.  The award was announced at a black tie gala in London's Pall Mall Thursday, May 7.

The highly-respected publication's award further cements PetRelocation.com's international standing as the go-to pet moving service provider in the corporate relocation and global mobility industry.  In a congratulatory letter to PetRelocation.com, Re:locate Magazine noted that "The judges praised PetRelocation.com for excellent use of its website, blog and Facebook, its training seminars, and its clear focus on this very specialist area."  By providing free advice in the form of international pet transport rules and requirements, as well as a team of country-specific relocation specialists, PetRelocation.com continues to gain popularity with respected relocation companies, forging several strategic alliances with leading corporations and relocation service providers in 2008.

The level of trust critical to shipping pets and international pet transport makes the receipt of the award highly significant.
