What is Flight Nanny?

If you have fallen inlove with our cats or even a particular kitty but you are across the United States or you live too far to drive to us and don’t want to fly yourself, we offer a trusted Flight Nanny service.

A professional pet nanny will personally fly with your kitten in the airplane cabin (never cargo!) and meet you at your nearest major airport.

The nanny’s airline ticket is included in the delivery fee, which typically ranges from $850–$950 depending on destination.

Why Choose a Flight Nanny?

  • Your kitten travels safely in-cabin with a real person

  • You avoid flying or taking time off to travel

  • Great option if you have flight anxiety or a busy schedule

Flight nanny delivery is usually $850–$950, depending on where you live and the nanny’s ticket price for that day. This includes everything your kitten needs to travel safely right beside the nanny in the cabin.

We are in NY I fight out of Buffalo, depending on your location the timing can vary from1-4 hours for closer states and 6-8. If there is a layover it can take longer for your baby to arrive.

Your kitten can fly at 12 weeks, once my vet clears them. I’ll give you a couple of arrival options so you can pick what works best for you.

There is less stress on kittens via flight nanny, with that being said cats usually are not a fan of changes, the travel process can be stressful depending on the cat. However, our kittens are very resilient. We often receive great responses from our owners stating that their kitten settled within hours. 

Ww ask you take the day just incase there are any delays with your little one. Your nanny will keep your kitten cozy and cared for the entire time. If anything changes, I’ll send you updated arrival details right away, and if you track they should also update you with notifications. You will also have the flight info so you can reach out if they are at a airport with service if you have any questions. 

Once we lock in an arrival date, a small booking fee is paid to hold your spot.

The remaining balance is paid 24 hours before travel, or at hand-off depending on the nanny’s rules.

I’ll guide you through the whole process and make it super simple!

Most kittens sleep the whole time , but if they do potty, the nanny will clean them up and keep them fresh and comfortable.

Once home, offer a small meal and water. Try not to feed at the airport since little tummies can be sensitive after travel.

Just a few quick things!

  • A cozy blanket or towel

  • A little dish + water

  • Cat carrier 

  • Kitten food for later at home (they may not want to eat right away)

Your kitten will be fully taken care of during the flight, so you don’t need much!

Your kitten will depart from whichever major airport your nanny is using. I’ll share exact details as soon as the flight is booked.

Easy! I’ll give you:

  • Your nanny’s name

  • Their photo

  • The exact meeting spot in the terminal

  • The estimated arrival time

You simply meet them at baggage claim or the designated pickup area, sign for your kitten, get a picture, and head home with your little fluff.

  • Constant supervision

  • A soft, airline-approved carrier

  • Gentle comfort and snuggles

  • Potty checks and clean pads

  • Temperature-controlled cabin travel
