Meet the Team Behind Pet Haulers
Our Founders
Pet Haulers was started by Joshua and Karen, two lifelong pet lovers who have spent decades on the front lines of logistics and animal care.
Joshua brings 20+ years in freight logistics across multiple roles, plus a background in tech and IT, making sure every trip is planned, tracked, and handled with professional precision.
Karen adds 20+ years in pet-related industries, including working in veterinary settings and as a professional pet transport driver—with hands-on experience contracting for other transport companies and competitors. She knows exactly what safe, low-stress travel looks like for animals and their humans.
Together, they built Pet Haulers to combine big-league logistics with genuine care for pets, so every journey feels as reliable as freight and as personal as family.
