The short answer

Aigan relocates pets from Bengaluru to any Indian city and to 60+ countries, with doorstep pickup across Whitefield, Koramangala, HSR, Sarjapur, Electronic City and North Bengaluru. Air moves depart from Kempegowda International (BLR); escorted rail runs from KSR Bengaluru City and Yesvantpur. Domestic moves from Bengaluru typically run ₹16,000–₹46,000 door to door.

What makes pet relocation from Bangalore different?

  • BLR sits about 40 km north of the city. A pickup in HSR or Electronic City needs 90 minutes of buffer before we even join the airport road.
  • Tech-corridor moves come at short notice. We hold crate stock in the common size classes so a two-week move is genuinely possible here.
  • Bengaluru's mild weather means we lose fewer departures to heat embargoes than any other metro we operate in.

Dog transportation services in Bangalore

We move dogs of every size out of Bengaluru. Indies and Labradors most often, but also the Great Danes and Saint Bernards that half the market quietly declines. Bengaluru's mild ground temperatures mean dog transport here loses fewer departures to heat embargoes than any other metro in India, so a large dog can realistically fly at short notice. Crate sizing is measured at your home, never estimated from a breed chart, because a crate 2 cm too short is refused at acceptance.

How dog relocation works

Cat relocation services in Bangalore

Cat relocation from Bengaluru is mostly Persians, Siamese and Indian shorthairs, and it is a quieter job than dog transport in every sense. Cats travel in smaller crates at lower freight cost, and on short southern sectors to Hyderabad or Chennai the whole move is over in a morning. Persians are the exception worth flagging: they are brachycephalic, so we apply the same breed caution we would to a Pug.

The biggest single cost driver is not your pet's body weight. It is the volumetric weight of the crate, which is why we measure your pet at home rather than estimating from a breed chart.

Air, train or road

How pets travel from Bangalore: air, train and road

We pick the mode for your pet's breed, size, age and the season, not for our convenience. Here is what each one actually looks like from Bangalore.

Pet transport from Bangalore by air (BLR)

Manifest cargo and excess baggage both depart from the Menzies Bobba terminal at BLR, 40 km north of the city. Live animals are accepted 4 hours ahead for cargo and 3 for baggage. The mild climate means daytime sectors stay available here year-round, which is not true in Delhi, Ahmedabad or Jaipur.

Air transport in detail

Pet transport from Bangalore by train

Escorted rail leaves from KSR Bengaluru City and Yesvantpur, in a first-class coupé booked entirely for your pet with one of our handlers alongside. It is the default recommendation for snub-nosed breeds and senior dogs on the long northern corridors, where a Delhi or Kolkata arrival would otherwise dictate the schedule.

Train transport in detail

Pet transport from Bangalore by road

Dedicated air-conditioned vans run to Hyderabad, Chennai, Kochi and across Karnataka. On the Hyderabad corridor road genuinely beats flying. Ten hours with one handler and three break stops is less total stress than three hours of terminal for a 75-minute sector.

Road transport in detail
Which service you need

Door-to-door or airport-to-airport?

Two ways to buy a pet relocation, and the difference is who does the driving and the paperwork. Here is what each one means in Bangalore specifically.

Most people book this

Door-to-door pet relocation

A handler collects from your flat in Whitefield, HSR, Sarjapur or wherever you are, crates your pet at home where they are calm, drives to the Menzies Bobba terminal and hands over. At the far end another handler collects and delivers. You never see a cargo counter. This is what almost every Bangalore move books.

Airport-to-airport pet transport

You bring your pet to the BLR cargo terminal yourself and collect at the destination airport. It saves roughly ₹4,000–₹7,000 and costs you the 40 km run north, the acceptance paperwork and a receiving contact at the other end. Worth it if you are flying on the same aircraft; rarely worth it otherwise.

Routes

Bangalore to Delhi, Mumbai and Hyderabad pet transport

The corridors Bangalore families move on most, with real timings, real modes and real starting prices.

International pet relocation from Bangalore

Bengaluru is one of seven Indian cities with its own AQCS station, so your export health certificate is inspected and issued here rather than shipped to Chennai. In practice that removes about a week of uncertainty. The US, Canada, UK, Germany, Australia and Singapore are the corridors we run most from BLR. Start six months out: the rabies titre blood draw only counts after microchipping and vaccination, and no agent can compress that chain.

Paperwork

Documents and health checks for pets leaving Bangalore

Nothing here is optional, and nothing here is quick. This is the chain, and where Bangalore sits in it.

Bangalore is one of seven cities with its own AQCS station, so export health certificates are inspected and issued here rather than couriered to Chennai. Roughly a week of uncertainty removed. Domestically you need a fitness-to-fly certificate written within 10 days of travel and a rabies vaccination inside 12 months. The city has more airline-experienced small-animal vets than anywhere in India, which matters because a certificate in the wrong format is refused at the counter, not at the vet's.

The order matters more than the list. A titre test drawn before the microchip was fitted does not count, and redoing it costs three weeks.

What to be careful about when moving a pet from Bangalore

Three things go wrong on Bangalore moves more than anything else. None of them are difficult to avoid, and all of them are easier to fix three weeks out than three days out.

  1. Do not underestimate the airport run

    BLR is 40 km north. From HSR, Koramangala or Electronic City that is 90 minutes before the acceptance clock even starts, and the single most common way a Bengaluru move goes wrong is a pickup scheduled as though the airport were nearby.

  2. Book the service lift before the flight

    Whitefield, Sarjapur and North Bengaluru complexes need a lift slot and gate pass raised a day ahead. Give us your tower and flat number, not just the society name. These campuses are large enough that finding the right block costs half an hour.

  3. Crate-train, do not crate-introduce

    A pet meeting its crate on travel day has a materially worse journey. Two weeks' notice is enough to fly from Bengaluru; it is not enough to do it comfortably. Ask for the crate early even if the booking is not confirmed.

Snub-nosed breeds: Pugs, Bulldogs, Shih Tzus and Persian cats

Bangalore is the easiest Indian metro to fly a Pug, Bulldog, Shih Tzu or Persian cat out of, because ground temperatures rarely reach the ceiling carriers apply to snub-nosed breeds. That does not make it automatic. Air India refuses them in the hold outright, and the destination's arrival temperature still has to clear. On northern corridors we usually route them to escorted rail from KSR Bengaluru City instead.

Best time to move a pet from Bangalore

Airlines stop accepting live animals above roughly 28–29°C on the ground. These are the windows that actually close in Bangalore.

  • March to May

    What bites: Bengaluru itself stays workable, but the destination often doesn't. A Delhi or Ahmedabad arrival can be embargoed even when departure is fine.

    What we do: We check the temperature ceiling at both ends before booking, and shift to a landing before 8am where the arrival city is the problem.

  • October and November

    What bites: North-east monsoon evening thunderstorms delay departures, usually after 4pm.

    What we do: We book morning sectors through these two months and keep the afternoon slot as the fallback, not the plan.

How it actually works here

Flying a pet out of BLR, in practice

The specifics we plan a Bangalore move around. Generic advice is what gets pets turned away at counters.

Where your pet is handed over

Menzies Bobba Air Cargo Terminal, BLR. Live animals are accepted 4 hours before departure for manifest cargo, 3 for excess baggage.

The airport run

40 km from most addresses. We build 90 minutes of buffer into every pickup before the acceptance clock starts.

Quarantine office, on site

AQCS Bengaluru. Bengaluru has its own quarantine station, so export health certificates are issued locally. You are not shipping paperwork to Chennai and waiting.

Buildings, lifts and gates

Apartment complexes in Whitefield, Sarjapur and North Bengaluru almost all require prior approval for a service-lift booking and a gate pass for our van. We raise both a day ahead, and we ask for your flat number and tower rather than just the society name, because these campuses are large enough that guessing costs half an hour.

Vets and health certificates

Bengaluru has more airline-experienced small-animal vets than anywhere else in India, which matters because a fitness-to-fly certificate written in the wrong format gets rejected at the counter. We work with clinics that have issued them before.

If flying isn't right

Escorted rail departs from KSR Bengaluru City / Yesvantpur. We recommend it for snub-nosed breeds, senior pets and anxious animals regardless of what is fastest.

Why us

Why Aigan for pet relocation in Bangalore

Three things that are true here specifically, not three things every pet transport company in India claims.

01

We hold IATA crate stock in the common size classes in Bengaluru specifically because tech-sector transfers here come at short notice.

02

Local AQCS access means we handle export certification in the city rather than couriering paperwork to another state.

03

We work with Bengaluru clinics that have written fitness-to-fly certificates before, so the document is not rejected at the counter for formatting.

Doorstep pickup

Doorstep pickup areas we cover across Bangalore
