Hi Samanthe!

Hoop dit gaan baie goed met jou!

Ek en my man wou net vir jou baie dankie se vir alles wat jy vir ons en ons hondjies gedoen het! Ons sou dit nie sonder jou kon doen nie en ons waardeer jou vreeslik baie! Ons was so bly en verlig gewees toe ons hier in Brazil geland het en ons, ons 2 babatjies veilig gesien het! Die agent wat julle aanbeveel het was ook wonderlik en hy het ons so gehelp!

Jy en petwings was wonderlik van begin tot einde en ons is baie "impressed"! Dankie vir alles!

Wanneer ons besluit om terug Suid Afrika toe te kom, hoe sal dit werk met ons hondjies? Sal die agent hulle weer in Sao Paulo "incheck"en sal julle hulle van Sao Paulo af kan vlieg na Johannesburg toe? Ons wil ook graag weet watter toetse hulle sal nodig he om terug te vlieg en of hulle in "quarantine"sal moet wees en vir hoe lank en waar? Sal dit baie waardeer!!!

Weereens dankie vir alles! Jy is 'n ster!

Blessings en groete

Andrea en Alexandre Gomes Vieira (Milo en Lucy-2 puggies)

Dear Petwings 

Would just like to say a big thank you to everyone involved for making our animals move a comfortable and efficient one. 

They arrive safely yesterday as planned, although it took us several hours to clear them out customs ourselves!! 

Again, from the bottom of our hearts we all thank you. 

Regards

Dear Lauren,

I would like to commend you, the organisers, workers, front of house staff and the bosses of Petwings for the very professional and friendly AND efficient manner in which you handled the transport of the Scottie pup to East London on Wednesday 27 March 2013. All your arrangements beforehand were smooth and I received exactly what you promised. The pup enjoyed the flight and arrived relaxed and happy !

It is indeed a pleasure to work with people who enjoy their work, are friendly and helpful and who do what they promise to do.

It will be a pleasure for me to recommend your organisation to anyone who needs a pet transported and looked after well.

I am sorry that I could not look around the premises but I had another appointment to keep. Just coming to the plot brought back many childhood memories. Maybe some other time ! 

With kind regards,

Gonnie Leurs.

(I shall be very happy if you could give a copy of this to your "boss" and also to thank all of the persons who work there, because we all work so much better when we know that we are appreciated. Thank you.)

Hello Mark,

Well Pippen and Mystery are safe as little larks and slowing starting to get use to being “home” !

We would like to personally thank everyone at Petwings for their service, their compassion, and their understanding through our entire process of kennelling our animals with you and then flying them off to our new destination.

From the moment that I interacted with Lucindie, my journey began of your experience. You even entertained my notion of a personal interview at my home to

quell my nerves and to meet the animals. Frank and you put my at ease with your care and consideration and even brought the travel boxes to show me. Frank dutifully collected them on time and off they went to the kennels. The next piece of the journey began with interacting with Colin and Adrian from the kennels – and I must tell you that I did this daily (the two animals had never been kennelled before).

Colin and Adrian were absolutely incredible with our animals – their own love and concern for the well being of animals – given all their different circumstances – is everything that you need when these separations happen. There is no doubt in my mind that they received 5 star treatment for the entire stay. A special thank you to these gentlemen; every time that I called it was never too much trouble to share all the little details of the animals and their behaviour with me. They prepared both animals for their flights and sent them to us in a healthy and fit form. Special thanks Colin for what you did for Pippen in this process...)

Petwings also arranged to deliver our animals to us, and they arrived just 3 days ago. And hence the delay in writing to you to express our deepest thanks to Petwings.

I highly recommend your organisation to anyone looking for excellent service and a compassionate and caring group of animal lovers!!

Kind Regards,

Linda Eyre

Hi Lauren,

I got caught up in all the excitement and forgot to thank you for a wonderful job you did getting my Kitties to London safe and sound. 

They're settling in nicely, although the Weather has been a culture shock. They've never seen Snow before. 

Please tell me if I owe you anything for the Vet examinations whilst they were boarding at Keringa. 

I've attached some photos. My crazy son went and fetched them and brought them home on the Underground train.

Thanks again

Dear Lauren

Thanks a lot.

I am so impressed with your professional service! 
This morning exactly at 06:00 as agreed, the puppy was collected by a very friendly man –
Petwings / Keringa obviously takes professional service to the next level!

Karin is excited and looks forward to receiving the puppy in Cape Town later this morning.

Once again a huge thank you for taking care of pets, and without hesitation
I will recommend Petwings to others as well.

Enjoy Monday!

Dear Lauren,

Thank you for flying my ShihTzu puppy, Lily, we went to collect her from the cargo terminal at King Shaka airport on
Wednesday and she looked happy and healthy!

Initially I was very stressed and unsure about flying the puppy as this was the first time EVER for me,
but you guys really wow-ed me with your helpful and friendly service, not to mention, the superb EFFICIENCY -
amazing!!! very punctual and organized!!!  

Just a big THANK YOU again to you and your crew for making this experience such a pleasant one,
and for taking care of Lily, making sure she had a safe and comfortable flight :)

If I ever need to fly my pets again, I will definitely choose Keringa, no doubt!

Hi Samanthe,
 
Thank you for the refund and the email.
 
Buddy and Jock are well. Our little 15 month old loves to play with them.
He is very gentle but the dogs are also extremely tolerant with him.
He loves their toys and they chew his toys?
 
Our two dogs spent 6 months in quarantine at Keringa Kennels prior to their move to Brisbane, Australia.
The reason we chose for the dogs to spend the bulk of the quarantine period at Keringa
was because of the excellent recommendations we received from other families about the facilities there.
We were not disappointed. The kennels themselves were always kept clean; 
Colin and Mark were wonderful to our dogs; they noticed the small medical issues that needed
attention immediately; kept us informed at all times and helped my husband and I through the process of separation;
the admin staff were professional and accommodating. From our experience, 
I would highly recommend Keringa Kennels to anyone who needs to have their pet quarantined.
 
All the best,
 
Tamsyn Potter

Hi Samanthe

 Baie dankie Poekie is nog soos sy altyd gewees het, ons het gedink sy sou dalk ons vergeet het,
maar toe sy in Kalgoorlie geland het in haar krat en ons haar roep het sy amper die krat uit mekaar gebyt van opgewondenheid.
Ons wil julle baie dankie se vir al julle opofferings en julle mooi kyk na Poekie. 

Ons wil as'n familie baie dankie se aan al julle staf members vir alles wat julle gedoen het. 

Se baie dankie vir almal wat met Poekie te doen gehad het . Dit was elke sent werd.

Sy is terug amper onmiddelik na haar maniere wat sy gehad het en dis hoe ons dit wou gehad het. Die kinders is ook baie bly. 

Weer eens baie dankie vir alles, julle is almal die beste.

Good morning Samanthe,

 Hayley, Mignon, Misha and Simone are doing very well. They will be coming home on Monday 26 March - we can't wait!

I would like to thank all the staff at Keringa for taking special care of our feline children.
During the six months they were under your care, you took a personal interest in each one of them and catered for their every need.
Thank you so much!

 Kind Regards,

Clasina Roodt

Hi Samanthe

 Finally, we would just like to thank the entire team at Keringa for making the pet immigration process as simple
(for us) and comfortable (for our cats) as possible. From the ladies in the office and reception,
to the guys out in the cattery, you made us feel very comfortable leaving our little cats in your care.
The cattery was always spotless and there was always a feel good vibe about the place, due to the positive,
friendly and welcoming manner of all the staff members. You all helped make a very difficult process a lot easier!

Thank you once again.

 Enjoy your long weekend.

 Regards

Subject: RE: Refund from Keringa

Hi Samanthe,

 We are all fine here and slowly settling into life in Australia.

 We will return the form as soon as possible, thank you for the refund !

 Bruno and Kitty have arrived safely.  The quarantine station is very far away from us
and visiting is restricted so we have hired “dog walkers” and they have already been to visit them and
have posted some pictures for us on their website. 

 We cannot wait to welcome them home in March.

 We would like to thank all of the staff at Keringa Kennels for looking after our babies for 6 months. 
We found everyone to be very friendly and caring.  When Bruno had his fit at the quarantine,
the staff went out of their way to ensure his safety and to help him recover from his fit. 
He was taken to the vet immediately and was able to recover and return to Keringa where Pauline
kept us up to date on his progress.

 Colin and Mark, you are both amazing people with such a love for animals. 
You were always on hand to chat about our pets, calm our nerves after Bruno’s fit and play with Bruno
with his soccer ball to prove to our son that Bruno was still normal !!  

 The administration side always ran smoothly with prompt replies to our emails and there were
no problems with paperwork or payments. 

 Visiting was a pleasure, we could visit for a hour every session and often Colin or Mark would join
us for a few minutes of play time with Bruno.   Our pets were often brushed and groomed and Bruno was given
a good bath as well.  Bruno was let out in an exercise area from morning to late afternoon. 
Kitty had his own little room with a look-out perch which was very nice!!

 We could view updated pictures of Bruno playing with his soccer ball and Kitty wanting attention on the website as well.

 I know our pets really enjoyed it at Keringa and we had peace of mind all the time knowing
that they were being treated well while we prepared to leave South Africa.

 To anyone considering taking their pets with them to Australia, we VERY strongly recommend that you firstly
send your pets to Keringa and secondly, do 6 months quarantine in South Africa and only 1 month in Perth
as the quarantine here is very far away and visiting is very restricted.  We were very spoilt with having
Keringa on our doorstep and that we were able to visit every day including weekends ! 

 Once again, a big THANK YOU to all at Keringa for caring for Bruno and Kitty.

 Regards

The Geldart Family - Perth

 Ek wil julle net bedank vir die wonderlike liefde en aandag wat julle aan my Vlooi gegee het in die ses maande wat hy by julle was.
Sonder julle liefde en spesiale aandag sou nie ek of hy dit oorleef het nie,
julle het dit vir ons moontlik gemaak om vir ses maande van ons "kind" weg te wees en ons het
geweet hy is versorg en in die beste hande. Ek was so bang vlooi gaan my nie meer ken na ses
maande nie maar ag dit was so lekker toe ons mekaar weer sien hy het my dadelik erken en begin lek.
Die heel lekkerste was toe ek hom na ses maande sien en hy is net so mooi versorg as toe ek hom die dag
by Keringa afgelaai het. Toe ek hom daarby julle gelos het het dit vir my gevoel ses maande is n leeftyd
maar met julle gereelde fotos en emails het die tyd so vinnig verby gegaan ek kon nie glo toe hy veilig in
Melbourne land dat die tyd al verby is nie.  Julle het sy dag spesiaal gemaak toe hy verjaar het iets wat vir
my baie spesiaal was en wat ek nooit sal vergeet nie julle is waarlik n dierbare en puik kwarantyn instansie
en ek sal julle altyd aanbeveel want vir ons was julle net goed, julle moet weet ons wardeer dit.  Vlooi se vlug
na Melboure was sonder enige probleme  en stres hy is nog net so stert in die wind soos altyd, nogmals baie baie dankie.

 Baie Liefde en Ozzy Groete

 Good morning Debbie

Well the babies finally got here last night, I was so glad to see them, I like to think they
were glad to see me too.

I want to say a huge thank you to everyone at Petwings for all that they have done, and an even
bigger thank you to you. I know this has been a bit of a long process but it was worth it.

I was really pleased when we visited them to see that not only was the accommodation excellent,
your staff obviously love animals ( I think the animals love them back)

Delighted with the care that they got from the vet also.

 I have no hesitation in recommending Petwings to anyone that is looking for a competent and
caring company to deal with relocation of their pets and have told many people of the great
service you not only offer, (as many companies do) but you certainly delivered.

 Once again, thank you so much.

_______________________________________________________________________________________________

Thank you very much Tanya.

 We just got back from Calgary and the dogs are looking great. They were over the moon seeing us again
albeit that they were very tired (it is no 02h40

here) They lost some weight but it's a good thing and we hope to keep their weight where it is now.
They were also very clean considering the ultra long journey and the crates are great too. If they were
1 inch larger on any side they would not have fitted in our van, but all worked out great. Customs went
easy and so was the collection. There was some confusion on the roads from the airport to the holding
warehouse due to roads being closed for construction of new airport runways and this caused a detour and
delay of about 90 minutes but it ended well.

 Once again, THANK YOU all and may you all have a happy and prosperous Festive Season.

 Johann, Christa, Don and Forest.

Good day Norman

 I am writing to you to let you know of the absolutely fantastic service I received from Vic late on Tuesday night.
He was to collect my animals from the airport for overnight stay with you guys but we had drama from the word go as
the state vet wouldn’t let the animals out. Having already been delayed and with their flight taking 47 hours rather
than 22 hours I was absolutely distraught when the animals were not allowed to come to you for food and
to at least get out of the cage.

 I was on the verge of driving to JHB to try and sort this out ( 23H00)  but Vic called me and told me not to come up and
he would personally sort out the permits early the following morning. I emailed the original to him and he went to
get the copies from the ministry of agriculture, took them to the vet to be released and then brought the documents to Qantas for me.

 This man went beyond the call of duty and if it was not for him my animals would have been severely affected.
As it is when I eventually got them in Durban they were in a traumatised state.

 I would sincerely appreciate it if you could make a point of acknowledging Vic for what he has done for me as
I'm sure he is one of the few who would go to such lengths to help someone he has never met.
He is definitely as asset to your organisation.

 Thank you for all the assistance and I assure you I will certainly recommend your company to everyone.

 Very much appreciated

 Regards
 Kevin Atkins

Thanks for the email update - glad to hear they are well and everything went smoothly.
EAGERLY awaiting the call from Angelo at Spotswood this evening :-)

I'd like to take this opportunity to thank you, Deanne, Colin and the rest of the team there for all their help,
kindness and patience. Colin was especially patient with the "phyco-mommy" calling him tireously to hear if my
bubbas are ok and moaning to him how much I miss them. Special Thanks to Deanne for always calming me

From the initial quotation to the arrival at the destination, the service I received was outstanding.
It stood "head and shoulders" above other similar companies that I sought quotations from.

To all the Staff at Keringa Kennels,

Sorry it's taken us so long to write to you, but it's been a hectic couple of months settling in to our new home in Sydney.
It was really sweet of you to send us birthday cards for Emily, Figaro and Jespah. We were really touched by it.

The cats have settled into their new quarters at the quarantine station here quite well and are all looking lovely,
although they're not half as spoilt here as they were by Colin at your kennels. We especially want to say a BIG THANKS
to Colin for caring for them so lovingly. We try to visit them as often as possible, but visiting hours here aren't as flexible,
being only on Tuesdays and Thursdays between 13:30 and 15:30. Anyway, time really flies and it's quite exciting to know
that they'll finally be home with us on 10 October (next week Wednesday). I'm sure they'll also be happier to have a larger
space to run around in.

In each birthday card you also said you'd love to receive pictures of the cats, so we've enclosed recent pictures of them for you.

Once again, a big thank you for looking after our precious bundles so beautifully. Kind regards,

Glenda, Chris and Laurel Bower.

They have settled down remarkably well and apart from the occasional fight between 'Cuddles' and the nextdoor cat, we have had no problems at all.

She does all the same things, exactly the same as she used to before we left South Africa, so the long time which she spent in your kennels and here in Australia really seems to have had no lasting effect. We all feel that it was well worth the effort and cost. Again, I would like to thank you and all your staff for the way she was looked after while staying there." - The Harland family

They arrived in Australia safe and sound and are in fact due for release on 21st March. Time has indeed flown. The dogs are healthy and happy. In fact, the person caring for South African dogs at Eastern Creek Quarantine Station told us that the South African dogs always seem happy and well adjusted by the time they arrive in Australia. She attributes this to the care and handling received at Keringa." - Albert and Shelley Klijn

" 'Pablo' and 'Gina' (Yorkshire Terriers) are both very well - good health and lovely shiny coats. They were, of course, ecstatic to see us. They also immediately recognised the furniture and went tail-wagging and sniffing through the whole house. In a way it feels as if they were never away! We wish to thank you all at Keringa for all you did to make this happy reunion possible. Knowing that our children were in such good hands made it easier for us. Hugs and a big thank you also from 'Pablo' and 'Gina'." - Jack and Denetia Latti

 Thanks again for the caring and professional way in which my Edward was transported down to Cape Town recently. I have to return to Cape Town for two weeks, with my Kensey, and I'd rather have you assist in transporting her down with me on the same flight.

Hi Debbie,

 

Jammer ek laat nou eers van my hoor.

 Dit gaan baie goed met Tiger. Die vlug was natuurlik met 2-ure vertraag en almal was sommer moeg & gatvol vir die wag. Toe ons uiteindelik by Tiger uitkom in die cargo afdeling, was die mannetjie dood van die dors & hees geblaf. Ons moes maar n belangrike ou se naam drop om vinniger reaksie te kry - hulle werk ook op Afrika-tyd.

Ek moet se ek was baie beindruk met sy hokkie/boks, ek het nie besef julle sal vir hom so n groot hokkie gee nie, baie dankie.

Hy kan net nie verstaan dat ons hom gaan besoek en dan weer terug sit in sy hok en verdwyn nie.

Die Seychelles mense kyk mooi na die diere in kwarentyn. die hokke word gereeld skoon gemaak en hulle het altyd vars water & kos. Tiger kom Vrydag huistoe dan kan sy lewetjie weer begin.

Ek het een groot probleem, ek kan nerens op die eiland sy "Vets Choice - Sesitive" pellets kry nie. Die kos wat ek hier gekry het lyk en ruik soos hoender kos - ek is bang hy begin eiers le!

Ons "Landlord " en sy vrou is baie goed vir ons. Hulle het die erf laat toe span sodat Tiger nie kan uitkom nie.

 Wel Debbie,ek & Johan wil net vir jou en julle span se "baie dankie" vir julle profesionele diens, jou geduld & vriendelikheid.

 Lekker bly

Groete uit n warm bedompige Seychelles

 Louisa,Johan & Tiger Barnard.
