Moving With a Dog
WHAT TO KEEP IN MIND
Shopping for your new home is one of the most enjoyable parts of the moving process if you're buying a house. However, whether renting or purchasing, it is critical to keep your dog in mind throughout the process.
Pet-Friendly Move
With Homes by Nix's cutting-edge technology, we make your move to Southern California smoother for you and your dog. Our AI tools help you quickly locate essential services like veterinarians, pet stores, and dog parks in your new neighborhood, ensuring your pet's seamless transition.

Our expertise includes advice on secure backyard arrangements, making sure your furry friend enjoys their new environment safely and happily.
No Stress Relocation
Understand that relocation can be a source of stress for your dog. At Homes by Nix, we recommend maintaining familiar routines as much as possible to ease your dog's anxiety during the transition.
Consider leaving your dog's favorite area in your current home untouched until the last moment. This strategy can minimize their discomfort amidst the moving process. During the busiest phases of moving, it might be beneficial to arrange for your dog to stay with a trusted friend or family member, or explore boarding options provided by your veterinarian. For situations where this isn't possible, using a crate can be a safe and effective way to ensure your dog's security.
Calming Familiarity
Updating your dog’s tags with your new contact information is crucial immediately upon relocation. Our team can also assist in identifying any local vaccine requirements for your dog, ensuring their health and safety in the new region.
While the temptation to buy new items during a move is strong, retaining your dog’s familiar belongings is beneficial. Their familiar scents will provide comfort and ease their transition into the new environment. At Homes by Nix, we understand the importance of every detail in your move, including the well-being of your pets.
