Create a Safe and Comfortable Environment
Before your pet moves into their new apartment, create a space that is familiar to them by bringing items from their previous home. Doing this can be anything from toys to blankets. If possible, allow your pet some time in the apartment to explore and adjust before the moving truck arrives.

Update Vaccinations
Before making the move, double-check that your pet is up-to-date on their vaccinations. Doing so will ensure they are healthy and ready for their new home. You may also want to consider getting them microchipped in case they get separated from you during the move.

Stay Calm and Reassure Your Pet
Moving can be stressful for everyone, including your pet. Make sure to take time to reassure your pet that everything is going to be okay. Speak calmly and provide plenty of love and affection as they transition into their new home.

Get to Know Your New Neighborhood
Once you have settled in, get out and explore your new neighborhood with your pet. Take them on a walk or drive around the area so they can get used to their new surroundings. Hickory, NC is an amazing place to live, and so much of it is pet-friendly!
