Our Team
Behind every successful pet relocation to Bali is a calm, experienced human being who knows exactly what needs to happen next — with your pet’s safety and your family’s move at the centre. At petrelocationtobali.com, that person is Anya.
Anya Devlin — Relocation & Destination Services Lead
Anya Devlin is the Relocation & Destination Services Lead and your main point of contact from the moment you message us on WhatsApp until your pet is sleeping safely in your new Bali home.
Her role is to coordinate your entire move to Bali end-to-end, with a particular focus on Karantina-compliant pet imports. That means she keeps all the moving parts aligned — pet paperwork, flights, quarantine, visas via our licensed partners, household shipping, and your Bali arrival — so you do not have to manage separate providers on your own.
Anya’s specialist knowledge includes:
- Pet relocation to Bali (dogs and cats, family moves, multi-pet itineraries)
- Bali destination services (home search, schools, banking, settling-in)
- Karantina pet imports (Indonesia’s Animal Quarantine Agency rules and process)
For pets, she works step-by-step through the Indonesian import sequence — ISO 11784/11785 microchip, rabies vaccination, FAVN/RNATT titre test, Karantina import permit, IATA-crate flight (usually via Jakarta), government quarantine, then onward transfer to Bali. She will tell you frankly when a timeline is realistic and when it is not; last-minute pet moves to Indonesia rarely work, and she will not pretend otherwise.
Beyond pets, Anya coordinates the wider relocation pieces that make your Bali move practical: visa & KITAS coordination via licensed immigration agents, sea or air shipment of your household goods, villa search and lease negotiation, school options, local banking, and day‑one essentials such as SIM cards, utilities, and domestic staff.
Clients appreciate that she answers quickly on WhatsApp, explains Indonesian processes in clear language, and gives specific numbers — for example, outlining that a standard family relocation service fee is typically USD 1,500–3,000, and a 20ft container door‑to‑door to Bali usually takes about 6–10 weeks in transit. Her priority is that you understand the full picture before you commit.
Anya has been involved in Bali and Indonesia relocations for over a decade, guiding families, couples, and solo professionals through everything from straightforward retiree moves to complex multi‑country pet imports routed through Jakarta under tight timeframes.
Most importantly, she leads with one principle: you should always know who is responsible for what, and you should never be left wondering what happens next.
Move Coordination Team
Supporting Anya is a small, focused move coordination team that keeps your relocation on track from first enquiry to final delivery. Every enquiry is routed directly to a WhatsApp coordinator so you are always speaking with a real person who has your case file in front of them.
Relocation Move Coordinator
The Relocation Move Coordinator is the operational backbone of your move. Once Anya has mapped out your overall plan, the move coordinator turns it into a detailed schedule and checklist.
Typical responsibilities include:
- Building a door‑to‑door move plan that synchronises pet relocation to Bali with your own travel, household shipment, and villa handover dates.
- Coordinating sea and air freight: choosing between small air shipments (around 100–300 kg, typically USD 1,500–4,000) and 20ft/40ft containers with destination handling in Bali.
- Working with licensed agents to time your entry visas (B211A, E33G remote worker, or KITAS categories) so they align with your pet’s quarantine release and your shipping arrival.
- Scheduling destination services such as airport meet-&-greet, temporary accommodation, and orientation days.
- Tracking key dates: titre test results, Karantina import permit validity, cargo flight bookings, container ETA, and villa lease start.
The move coordinator keeps you updated with clear timelines and flags any dependencies early — for example, explaining that your pet’s titre test and permit window will dictate the earliest possible flight date, and that your own travel and visa plan should be built around that.
Pet-Import & Karantina Specialist
Because Indonesia’s pet import rules are strict and changeable, your case is supported by a dedicated Pet-Import & Karantina Specialist. This role is focused solely on ensuring your pet arrives legally, safely, and with the least possible stress.
The pet-import specialist:
- Reviews your pet’s existing medical records and maps out the required sequence: ISO microchip, rabies vaccination, rabies antibody titre test (FAVN/RNATT), waiting period, and health certificate.
- Advises on realistic lead times — often counting back several months from your intended arrival in Bali to allow for vaccinations, blood tests, results, and Karantina’s import permit.
- Coordinates with your origin-country vet and, where required, authorities such as USDA, DEFRA/APHA, or DAFF for endorsement of health certificates.
- Arranges the Karantina import permit and Indonesian handling, including customs, arrival inspection, and mandatory quarantine at an approved facility.
- Books or liaises on the pet’s flight as manifest cargo in an IATA-compliant crate, usually routing your pet via an approved port such as Jakarta before onward transport to Bali.
- Plans the release and onward journey from quarantine to your Bali home — including road and ferry transport where needed.
The specialist also guides you through cost expectations for your pet, breaking it down into vet preparation, permit and Indonesian handling, flight as cargo, pet-shipper fee, and quarantine boarding. For most clients, the all-in range is several thousand dollars per pet; your quote will always be itemised so you see where each cost comes from.
Throughout the process, the pet-import team is clear about the distinction between immigration and quarantine: pets are regulated by Karantina, not by immigration, and the rules for animals are separate from your own visa. The team will always advise you to confirm current requirements for your specific route and pet profile, as regulations and fees can change.
Client Concierge
Relocating to a new country is more than flights and forms. Our Client Concierge is here to make everyday life in Bali workable from the first week, while the rest of the team manages logistics and compliance.
The concierge helps with:
- Shortlisting villas in areas like Canggu, Berawa, Pererenan, Uluwatu, and Sanur, and coordinating viewings and lease negotiations.
- Introductions to international schools, including arranging school tours and application timelines.
- Practical setup: utilities, internet, mobile numbers, Indonesian bank accounts, NPWP tax IDs, and domestic staff options.
- Driving licence support: coordinating appointments and paperwork for SIM A (car) and SIM C (motorbike).
- Healthcare and insurance introductions to expat health plans and trusted hospitals and clinics.
While the relocation move coordinator focuses on dates and logistics, the concierge focuses on your day-to-day questions: neighbourhood fit with pets and children, areas with easier traffic, and how to arrange pet-friendly cleaning or gardening staff once your pet is home.
