For pet owners migrating to Singapore, please do read through the process carefully. It may take up to 6 months before you can bring your pet in with all the compulsory tests and injections.
The process is quite clear. You can even hire professional pet movers who will advise you each step of the way.
For those who will be going through the same ordeal; all pets that require a quarantine period will be placed at the Sembawang Animal Quarantine Station.
The staff at this station is great. This is evident from the numerous thank you cards pinned all over their bulletin board
The size of the room is decent. They have two types of rooms; with aircon or a fan. We opted for the fan. It is an empty room which you can leave your pets make shift bed, toys, pillow, snacks. Make sure you leave a water bowl.
The room with the fan comes with a "balcony". Dogs can get a bit of sun from there.
The Sembawang station has several closed up mini fields. Each of these fields are double gated for extra security. Bags are provided for owners to clean up after their pets.
We would bring along our dog's water bowl and snacks. Do make sure you have your mozzie repellent with you.
The fields are great fun for families and pets. Even if you are unable to visit, the staff will help take your pet out for a run.
There is also a bathroom for you to bathe your dogs. Just make sure you bring the toiletries and towels. A set for yourself as well!
This place is amazingly clean. For a place filled with dogs, I did not get any nasty whiff of unpleasantries. There was no hair flying around. Everyone was polite.
Clearly, they love animals here.
