Aidy & Ali — a brother and sister who've always had a house full of pets.
We're Adrian and Alison, and between us we've been caring for Greater Manchester's pets since 2006, taking over Manchester Pet Care in 2019. We've had rescue dogs and cats our whole lives, so when your pet is anxious, poorly, or grieving alongside you, we understand exactly what that moment needs.
Every journey is in our fully air-conditioned, DEFRA-registered transport vehicle, kitted out with crates, blankets and muzzles — and we always recommend a home visit first, so your pet meets us on their own terms before travel day.
- Fully insured & CRB-checked, since 2006
- DEFRA-registered, air-conditioned transport vehicle
- We'll come into the consultation room with you if you need us to
- Covering Manchester, Salford, Swinton, Bolton, Sale & Altrincham
- Same familiar faces every visit — never a rotating fleet
More ways we look after your pet
From an urgent dash to the vet to a quiet afternoon of company at home, here's how we help.
Pet Transport & Vet Runs
Vet appointments, airport collections and local or UK-wide journeys in our secure, air-conditioned, DEFRA-registered vehicle. Fully insured, and happy to quote any journey.
Cat & Home Visit Care
Feeding, fresh water, litter trays and welfare checks in your cat's own familiar surroundings, tailored to whether they want fuss or space.
Pet Cremation
A sympathetic, individual cremation service via a well-respected local crematorium, handled with the same care and dignity as every other journey we make.
Not sure which service you need? Send us a message and we'll talk it through.
Get in touchSpecialist transport, beyond the vet run
The same familiar face and secure, insured vehicle — just for a wider range of occasions.
Specialist & Referral Hospital Transport
Ongoing trips to referral centres for chemotherapy, dialysis, physio or specialist consults — a familiar, calming presence for repeat appointments.
Puppy & Kitten Collection
Safe, careful collection from breeder or rescue and delivery straight to your door, so your new arrival's first journey is a calm one.
Kennels & Cattery Transport
Drop-off and collection for boarding, so you're not adding a car journey to an already stressful goodbye — especially useful over holiday season.
Grooming Transport
Pick-up, groom, and drop back home — ideal if you don't drive or can't fit a grooming trip around work.
Rescue & Shelter Relay Transport
Helping move dogs between foster homes, vets or onward journeys for local rescues — we're always glad to support the rescue community.
Show, Agility & Training Transport
Getting you and your pet to shows, agility events or training classes on time and stress-free, so you can focus on the day itself.

Trusted by pet owners across Greater Manchester
"Incredible service helping take my very reactive pup to the vets when our car had broken down. Adrian even came into the consultation room with me and gave excellent recommendations for local services. 100% recommend!"
"Adrian is brilliant. So caring and kind to animals and their carers. I was in bits when I lost my precious dog, but Adrian showed utmost care for him and me, getting us to the vets and, sadly, the crematorium. So thoughtful and reassuring."
"I can't praise Adrian and Manchester Pet Care highly enough. The most kind-hearted, gentle soul I've ever met — his compassion and kindness are second to none."
"We highly recommend Adrian and his pet taxi service. Our reactive rescue dog needed a vet visit after an arthritis flare-up, and it couldn't have gone smoother — Adrian picked us up right on time."
"Could not recommend their services enough. After my British bulldog suddenly passed, my heart was truly broken, and with no notice — although they were fully booked — Alison came to the rescue…"
"Great service. Highly recommended."
