Scheduled Vet Appointments
Request a vet taxi Perth trip for a routine consultation, vaccination, planned procedure drop-off or return journey after the clinic confirms the pet is fit for normal road transport.
Dog, Cat, Vet, Airport and Local Pet Travel
Pet Friendly Taxi Perth
Your pet’s journey starts before the taxi arrives: the carrier must fit, the driver needs to know an animal is travelling, and the pickup time must match your vet, groomer, boarding or airport plan. Universal Cabs lets you send these details in advance so the request can be reviewed before a vehicle is allocated.
Request a Pet Friendly Taxi Perth for you and your dog, cat or small companion animal. Tell us the animal type, size, behaviour, secure carrier or restraint, passenger count, luggage and route. A submitted request becomes a confirmed booking only after Universal Cabs replies.

Universal Cabs helps passengers arrange local taxi travel with an ordinary pet or assistance animal. Our Pet Friendly Taxi Perth service covers suitable journeys across the metropolitan area, subject to booking details, vehicle availability and confirmation. Review our taxi services in Perth, check the Perth taxi service areas, or view our Google Business Profile under Pet Friendly Taxi Near Me in Perth.
This service is primarily for a responsible passenger travelling with the animal. If you need an unaccompanied animal moved between two locations, discuss the request with Universal Cabs before booking because pet supervision and driver handling are not assumed.
Can You Take a Pet in a Taxi in Perth?
Yes, you can request a taxi with pets in Perth, but an ordinary pet must be disclosed before the ride is confirmed. Share the animal type, size, behaviour, restraint, passengers and luggage so Universal Cabs can assess the requested trip and available vehicle.
A Pet Friendly Taxi Perth booking may suit a scheduled appointment, airport ground trip, family visit or change of address. Sending the details early also reduces the risk of a failed pickup caused by an undisclosed animal or a carrier that does not fit the allocated taxi.

Trips You Can Request with a Pet
Universal Cabs reviews each journey using the pickup address, destination, appointment time, pet details and required vehicle space. Availability can vary by time, location and the information supplied.
Grooming and Daycare
Send the groomer or daycare address, appointment time, preferred entrance and requested return time with your pet’s carrier or restraint details.
Boarding Facilities
Arrange a passenger-and-pet journey to a kennel, cattery, pet sitter or boarding facility with enough space for bedding, food bags and luggage.
House Moves
Book direct travel to a new home with your animal, secure travel equipment and small pet items listed in the booking request.
Airport Ground Travel
Request transport to the location supplied by your airline or animal-cargo provider. Universal Cabs provides the road journey, not airline animal handling.
Family and Local Trips
Travel with your pet to a family address, pet-friendly accommodation or another approved destination within the confirmed service area.
Pet Safety Rules for Taxi Travel
For Pet Friendly Taxi Perth journeys, the animal must not obstruct the driver’s view or cause a driving distraction. The animal cannot travel on the driver’s lap. Use a secure carrier, crate, harness or suitable restraint based on the animal and confirm the setup before travel.
Cats and Small Animals
Use a ventilated carrier with a door that closes securely. Check the latch before pickup and keep the carrier closed inside the vehicle.
Dogs
Keep the dog on a lead before boarding and use an appropriate harness, carrier or vehicle restraint during the trip.
Crate Measurements
Provide the length, width and height of a large crate so available boot, floor and passenger space can be assessed.
Behaviour Information
Report anxiety, reactivity, escape risk, travel sickness or any behaviour that may affect boarding and road safety.
Clean Travel Setup
Bring a clean towel, blanket or pet mat when needed and make sure the animal has had a suitable toilet break before pickup.
Passenger Responsibility
The accompanying passenger remains responsible for controlling, supervising and caring for the ordinary pet throughout the journey.
Pet Taxi Perth Vehicle Guide
The required vehicle depends on passengers, pet size, carrier or crate measurements, mobility equipment and luggage. A larger vehicle request does not confirm that every crate or animal setup will fit. Universal Cabs must review the details and available fleet before confirmation.
View the full Perth taxi fleet before submitting the request. Do not place an animal or carrier in a position that blocks the driver, vehicle controls, doors or passenger restraints.
- Sedan taxi Perth requests may suit a smaller party with a secure carrier
- SUV taxi booking in Perth may provide room for a larger carrier and luggage
- Maxi taxi booking may suit a group, several carriers or bulky travel equipment
- Wheelchair taxi booking supports a passenger with mobility needs and an assistance animal
Ordinary Pets and Assistance Animals
Ordinary pet bookings and assistance-animal journeys do not have the same status. Give the correct information so Universal Cabs can record the trip properly.
Ordinary Pet Booking
A dog, cat or small companion animal must be disclosed before confirmation. Acceptance may depend on suitable restraint, vehicle space, service conditions and availability.
Assistance Animal
Under Western Australian passenger-transport rules, a driver must not refuse a passenger because they are accompanied by an assistance animal or an assistance animal in training.
Mobility and Space Details
State the assistance animal, wheelchair or mobility aid, carers, passengers and luggage so an appropriate vehicle request can be recorded.
Vet Taxi Perth and Return Journeys
A pet friendly cab can support normal road travel to a scheduled veterinary appointment. Provide the clinic name, entrance, appointment time, pet condition relevant to travel, carrier or restraint and the person accompanying the animal.
Universal Cabs is not an animal ambulance and does not provide veterinary monitoring or clinical care. If an animal is critically unwell, severely injured or unable to travel in a standard taxi, contact the veterinary clinic for transport advice before requesting a ride.
Appointment Drop-Off
Allow time to secure the pet, load the carrier and reach the clinic entrance before the scheduled appointment.
Return Request
Ask the clinic for an expected discharge time and confirm that the animal can travel in an ordinary passenger vehicle.
Changed Collection Time
Call Universal Cabs if the appointment runs late. A new pickup time remains subject to vehicle and driver availability.
Pet Airport Transfer Perth
Our Perth Airport transfer service can take a passenger and pet to an approved terminal, airline office or animal-cargo location. Confirm the exact address, check-in time, crate standard and documentation directly with the airline or cargo provider.
For a pet-friendly airport taxi request, send the flight or cargo details, destination entrance, animal type, crate dimensions, passenger number and every luggage item. Universal Cabs provides ground taxi transport only and does not complete airline check-in, cargo release or animal-handling paperwork.

|---|---|---|---|
| Scheduled Vet Visit | Clinic, entrance and appointment time | Carrier, crate or suitable restraint | Allow time for calm boarding |

| Long-Distance Trip | Full pickup, destination and planned stops | Restraint, water and rest requirements | Request the journey in advance |
Longer Trips and Pet-Friendly Accommodation
For travel beyond a short metropolitan journey, review our long-distance taxi transfers from Perth. Share the animal’s normal travel limits, requested rest stops, restraint setup, water needs, passengers and luggage before the trip is assessed.
If the destination is a hotel or apartment, use our hotel and accommodation transport Perth page for the taxi journey. The passenger must confirm the property’s pet policy directly with the accommodation provider. For a requested pickup at night, see our late-night taxi Perth information.
Fare, Cleaning and Booking Confirmation
Fare and any pet-related service or cleaning condition should be discussed before confirmation. The amount can depend on the route, travel time, requested vehicle and applicable booking terms. Do not rely on another taxi company’s pet fee or fare policy.
Ask Before Booking
Request the applicable fare information and ask whether any pet, vehicle or cleaning condition applies to the trip.

An undisclosed pet, incorrect crate measurement or missing luggage information may affect vehicle suitability and pickup.
